Enhance Your Creativity
Exclusive 5-Day Art Workshops in Ireland
Experience the perfect combination of art, luxury, and relaxation at the Farnham Estate Hotel in County Cavan, Ireland. Nestled on 1,300 acres of rolling countryside, shimmering lakes, and a stunning 18-hole championship golf course, Farnham Estate provides the ultimate setting for creativity and calm.
Our five-day art retreats bring together world-class artists and passionate painters in a relaxed, inspiring environment. Each workshop includes luxury accommodation, breakfast, lunch, and full access to the hotel’s award-winning spa, leisure, and wellness facilities, creating a balance of focused artistic learning and restorative downtime.
We also warmly welcome non-participating guests or partners. While you paint, your guest can unwind in the thermal spa, stroll along scenic woodland trails, enjoy a round of golf, or explore the nearby town of Cavan, known for its friendly atmosphere, cafés, and local charm. The region is also renowned for its superb fishing, attracting anglers from across Europe to its peaceful lakes and rivers, a perfect way to spend a leisurely afternoon while surrounded by nature. Together, you can discover the area’s beautiful countryside, heritage sites, and tranquil lake views, making this a truly memorable Irish getaway for both artists and companions.
Following two exceptional workshops in 2025 with Ruth Fitton and Gareth Reid, we’re delighted to announce that Gareth Reid (Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year and Decade) will return in May 2026 by popular demand, followed by Arthur Gain in September 2026.
Join us for a truly unforgettable experience, a luxury painting holiday in Ireland, where creativity flourishes in comfort and company.
