Lovely hotel and everything, food etc. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Great course- packed a lot in and structured in a way which enabled all of us to have time to get a lot from it. October 2018 Jo | The Grange by the Sea |

A weekend meeting fantastic people who became classed as friends in such a short space of time. October 2018 Katie | The Grange by the Sea |
I wish everybody had a chance to do this course at a young age- what a great help it would be to people! The Grange, itself, has a peaceful atmosphere and the garden is just beautiful. The path down to the gate makes me want to explore and unleashes my inner child! October 2018 Ali | The Grange by the Sea |
