Up-dated 5th May, 2007:

Sue`s aim is to pass on the crafts of spinning, knitting, crocheting, weaving and felting to people from all walks of life. She travels, spending her time on the boats in England, visiting her family and friends in Switzerland and also taking time out in Carriacou in the West Indies. It is here on the sea front, that she grows her own organic cotton and offers holidays to those interested in aquiring or refreshing skills in these crafts. .


beachfront huts

Visit the Indigo Well Museum and tour the island of Carriacou. Price includes B&B accomodation, and all flights Frankfurt-Grenada-Carriacou & London-Grenada-Carriacou and transfers to and from Bogles Roundhouse.
 
Bogles Roundhouse
Bogles Roundhouse is where the workshops take place and serves as your private restaurant when required, and is in itself a piece of artistic architecture. For more info about Bogles Roundhouse, check out their website or email them.
