"I’ve tried so many times to write this review but I couldn’t condense all the brilliant things I achieved in one week!  If you’ve ever longed to get away from the pressures of modern living and submerge yourself in a tranquil and happy environment and just be creative then Creative Escapes is for you.  I learnt so many new skills including pot making on a wheel and other ceramics, making a beautiful silver ring that I have not removed since making, a silver clay pendant that is always admired, greeting cards that I’m determined to do more of, frangipane soap and learning to make a proper paella with authentic sangria. Karen and Katherine were so enthusiastic for us to enjoy the whole experience that nothing was too much trouble.  Katherine is a brilliant cook so every meal was delicious and the wine was excellent too. Transport and transfers to classes are all taken care of.  A yoga class by the pool was a bonus. Massages are available at very reasonable rates.  I loved the design and decor at Villa.  There’s a Club house with darts, Pool table and cocktail bar. Also plenty of tranquil corners if you just want to read a book. Outside the villa you’re in a very quiet locality with an interesting walk along a dried river bed and other walks. The sound of the Hoopoe bird each morning and evening was a real treat. A trip to Mojacar on Market day was good fun.  I met and made new friends with a lovely group of people.  It was a fantastic week and I could easily have stayed a month or more! "
