About the Event
The Spinning Barn Summer Retreat 2026 is a five-day traditional craft retreat dedicated to hand spinning wool, British rare breed fibres, and the quiet satisfaction of making by hand.
Set within the peaceful surroundings of the Norfolk Broads, this retreat offers a thoughtful balance of guided tuition, expert talks, and generous time to spin at your own pace. You’ll explore traditional spinning techniques, work with distinctive wools, and follow the journey from fleece to finished yarn, supported throughout in a relaxed, welcoming environment.
With exclusive use of the venue, home-cooked meals, and a warm community of like-minded spinners, this retreat is designed for those who value skill, heritage, and time well spent.
Suitable for a range of experience levels, from confident beginners to experienced spinners.
