About

This Mindful Mosaics weekend with Julie Norburn takes place at The Grange by the Sea, our Isle of Wight home in the heart of Shanklin’s old village. Close to the beach and surrounded by gardens, The Grange offers a peaceful setting for a creative weekend away – with time to slow down, make something beautiful and enjoy the gentler pace of island life.

The weekend includes six hours of course time with Julie, alongside relaxed meals, free time, optional treatments and space to enjoy Shanklin, the coastal paths or the beach. Many guests come on their own, and the atmosphere is warm, informal and sociable, making it easy to settle in and feel at home.

Whether you come to try mosaics for the first time, reconnect with your creativity or simply enjoy the quiet pleasure of making by hand, this is a restorative way to step out of everyday demands and into a calmer, more creative rhythm.

Accommodation

Stay in comfortable rooms at The Grange by the Sea in Shanklin’s old village. Twin shared accommodation is included in the price, with single occupancy available for those who prefer their own room. If you’d like a slower departure, you can also extend your stay to include Sunday night on a bed and breakfast basis, subject to availability.

Meals

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included, with meals served in the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere of The Grange. We cater for dietary requirements – just let us know your preferences when you book. Tea and coffee are available throughout the day.

Weather

The Isle of Wight is known for its mild micro-climate, and Shanklin is one of the sunniest places in the UK. The weather can still be changeable, so we recommend packing layers and something waterproof, ready for coastal walks, gardens and time outdoors.
