The Location
Rosemary’s House is located on Halkidiki’s second peninsula, Sithonia. It rests between the villages of Nikiti and Marmaras, perched on a cliff that overlooks the Aegean Sea. The closest airport is Thessaloniki (SKG).
The Cuisine
Acclaimed local chefs cater all meals, providing a hearty Mediterranean diet of freshly-caught fish, regionally-sourced vegetables, and locally-pressed wine. Attendees will have access to a plentiful garden on the premises. Food and drink (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) are included in the cost of tuition. We work with our partners to ensure that we can accommodate any dietary restrictions or allergy needs.
The Bedrooms
While there are four private bedrooms with shared bathrooms available at Rosemary’s House, we house the majority of our writers in accommodation in neighboring hotels and houses. All accommodation options are within walking distance of the main house, and we operate a shuttle bus that is available to all writers. Fresh linen and clean bedding are provided in each room at the beginning of the retreat. Attending writers can opt for various tiers of housing and privacy, which are detailed below.
Regardless of where you sleep, Rosemary’s House, its common spaces, private pool, and private beach are open to all participants.
Bedroom options:
Shared room & shared bathroom: included in the cost of tuition
Private room & shared bathroom: +€995
Private room & private bathroom: +€1495
Private suite at five-star hotel: +€1995
In the rare case that a writer applies to two workshops, is accepted to both, and wishes to stay for more than one week, we offer a €1000 discount on housing.
In the past, some writers have elected for a writing-only week week before or after their workshop week. If this is of interest to you, please indicate this on your application.
