Alex Alexander at Higham Hall:

WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE

I hope you will enjoy browsing through all the exciting holidays listed on it.

The Painting Holiday Directory 2008 contains full details of holidays in the United Kingdom, Europe and the rest of the world. This is our sixteenth edition. Sixteen years of connecting readers with their perfect holiday, Sixteen years of helping make dreams come true. What a nice legacy to look back on, and there's even more to come.

The holidays are described by the course organisers in their own words, giving you a tempting taste of what to expect. There are maps, and colour pictures of some of the beautiful places where you can paint, together with samples of tutors' work.

There is also this year's password which will enable you to login fully to this website and keep up to date on availability, changes in schedules, and special offers from selected providers.

There is such a variety to choose from. Read the Painting Holiday Directory, make your choice, then pack your paints and head off for a holiday to remember.

Happy Painting, Anne
