French Chateau Holiday 2025

Exclusive (inclusive!) painting holiday in a French Chateau and then in Honfleur in France.

Honfleur

Each year Charlie takes a small group of three people, by car, to Chateau Quesmy. Set in the Picardy countryside, this moated chateau sits in  landscaped gardens and there is a covered, heated swimming pool. Rooms are single occupancy (unless you are a couple!), en suite and furnished to a very high standard. This year we are extending the holiday to include 4 nights in Honfleur. 

The cost is £1800 and a non-refundable deposit of £100 is required to secure a place. The balance will be due 8 weeks before departure.

This holiday is now FULL.

Dates are Sunday June 8th to Tuesday June 17th 2025

We cannot promise that Charlie will be able to pick you up and drop you off at your door as he has done in the past., Each year, the traffic has become more atrocious and Charlie’s journey time has increased. However, he will do his best and when we know who the clients are, and where they live, we will work out the best route to suit everyone..

Chateau de Quesmy

This painting holiday is truly luxurious. You are picked up by car on Sunday and taken to France by ferry. All meals at the Chateau (including wine with the evening meal) are provided as well as four days painting tuition. Extra drinks from the bar at the Chateau or at cafes while out on location must be paid for separately. You will need your usual kit for painting outside, including an easel or chair. You will be taken to a different location each day, unless it’s poor weather, when there is an indoor area available. On Friday you will drive to Honfleur to stay in the Hotel de Charme on a room only basis. Painting will continue at this lovely harbour-side location. On Tuesday you will return to the UK.
