Welcome to Guitar Retreats, the ultimate Guitar Getaway!
Our events are aimed at hobby guitar players who want to learn new skills and increase their confidence within a group of other like-minded players. We provide a relaxed, supportive environment for you to focus on your guitar playing along with expert tuition. Our retreats are tailored to give the time you need to indulge your passion for playing the guitar without the usual distractions. You simply relax, learn, practise and jam with other guitar enthusiasts. We offer weekend breaks plus 4 and 7 night retreats both in the UK and in Europe, in fantastic venues and inspirational locations. Non playing partners are always welcome and will find plenty to enjoy in the beautiful locations we use while their other halves indulge their favourite pastime.About Us
About Guitar Retreats
Guitar Retreats began life in 2008 as a fun weekend arranged for friends and colleagues who wanted to play the guitar but felt constricted by work, family life and lack of free time. So we hired a holiday home, all piled in with food and drink and we taught the group to play a few chosen songs together over the course of the weekend. It was such a success and so much fun that we repeated it and more and more people wanted to join us! So here we are now 12 years on, dozens of events and hundreds of budding guitar players have been on our retreats, we continue to grow and thrive with new ideas and longer more exotic retreats. We now also offer vocal coaching, performance skills and songwriting courses. We have a steady core of regular customers who come back again and again for the fun and the camaraderie. We aim to provide a stress free environment where you will have the time to learn, play and practise and jam in the company of like-minded people. Getting there is part of the adventure and we offer you magical locations and special places to experience. We have always believed in providing a fun first, laughing and learning ethic. We choose excellent teachers with an ego free approach to improving your playing, singing and performing. Think of our guitar retreats as a club where you can come and meet old friends and make new ones, pick up a few tips and indulge your favourite pastime to the full in beautiful locations across the UK and Europe.Events

Venues and Locations
We pride ourselves on our choice of inspiring venues and stunning locations across the UK and in Europe. We only use places that offer something special and provide the sense of escapism and relaxation we require. We spend a lot of time and care searching to find the ideal venues for our events. Whether it be a seaside hotel, country house, a converted monastery in France or even an entire island! On many of our events we have full exclusive use of the venue and all its facilities for the duration of the retreats. Your fellow guitarists and their partners will be the only other guests. This gives you the freedom to play whenever and wherever you like without ever being told to be quiet!Forum

watching every one progress and to grow more confident was something that I shall never forget. It was so enjoyable when everyone played together and got into the groove.
