   Hi everyone,

   This seems like a great network with everyone feeding back on each others posts. Thought I'd join up to both promote and get feedback on my new retreat holidays website http://www.worldretreats.co.uk

   It's not just to shamefully publise but as travel writers I'd appreciate your feedback and any recommendations for retreat holidays you've visited or heard of.

   We're classing a retreat holiday as a break that provides you with an experience or chance to explore a passion say yoga or art course, activity break or gourmet break. Most our the retreats we list will provide accommodation, great quality food/catering and all activities included in the price. The only thing they don't usually include is your flight.

   Be great to get feedback and insightful recommendations of more fantastic retreat holidays you've heard about. Thanks and look forward to hearing from some of you soon.

   Nice website! I like the retreats that you feature. I'd attend the Creative Writing retreat in England, the Meditation Retreat in Spain, The Catapult Club - Coaching in England, and the Painting Retreat in Scotland.

   A "retreat" to India or China (may seem cliche) would be a good idea. I haven't heard of any but it would be a great addition to your website...Rebecca

   Thanks for the feedback Rebecca, much appreciated. Actually we're about to upload two new retreats in India, I'll post links when they're listed.

   Thanks again

   I would love to feature any Writer's Retreats that you offer - we don't generally promote travel websites but if there is some special benefit to travel writers then I'm happy to help you get great exposure.

   Hi Trisha,

   It would be fantastic if you could promote the writing retreats we list. We're operating on an invitation only basis at the moment, hand-picking the very best courses and holidays (ones we think will appeal to a range of people with varied interests).

   I've included a link to the writing retreat we currently list and if you could pass this on to anyone or any site you think may be interested I'd really appreciate it. I imagine your personal network is quite large, where could you get our listed writing courses seen? I'll continue to keep you updated, thanks again!!

   As promised Rebecca here are some links to retreats in India

   The first one is an alternative way to celebrate the New Year, rest, relax, talk walks on the beach and practice yoga http://www.worldretreats.co.uk/retreat-special/1-goa-new-year-rejuvenation-retreat.html

   This one also specialises in Yoga as well as massages and other therapies, again in India http://www.worldretreats.co.uk/retreat-special/1-rishikesh-spirit-of-yoga.html

   There's also a stunner in Sri Lanka a natural sanctuary and breath takingly beautiful http://www.worldretreats.co.uk/retreat-special/1-embogama-ulpotha.html

   Not doing blatant advertising just responding to your last post Rebecca, hope these inspire...you never know you may find yourself there next year.

   I'll continue to list just writing retreats on here in future unless there are any specific requests.

   I'm still keen to hear from anyone who may have attended a writing retreat in the past. Please feel free to post.

   Thanks
