Ann Swan Holidays
Andalucia
Finca el Cerrillo is a very special place, recently voted number 9 in the top 50 hotels in Spain, I have been visiting here to run painting holidays for over 20 years. It is now so popular that opportunities for these workshops are very rare so do email to put your name on the waiting list if you would like to join me! The deposit secures your place and the remaining fee for the hotel is payable in euros nearer the time and covers all meals except one lunch plus airport transfers at a stipulated time so the only additional expenses are one lunch out and your bar bill!!
- Winter sun in the magical setting of the Finca el Cerrillo situated high in the foothills of the Sierra Almijara in Andalucia, north of Nerja and an hour from the bustling, historical city of Malaga.
- Relaxed and informal with excellent, locally sourced food and wine
- Twelve individually styled, spacious bedrooms each with modern en suite bathrooms, air conditioning and central heating.
- Air-conditioned studio with a lightbox and drawing boards, teas and coffee and Mozart

Prices include:

- Full Board accommodation (minus one lunch out) and transfers to and from the airport as long as you arrive at the suggested times – guests arriving at other times will have to transfer by taxi at their own expense.
- Why not enjoy a few days in Malaga, before or after the course, stroll through the ancient city centre, visit the fruit market, Picasso’s birthplace and museum, the fascinating Glass Museum or the ancient Roman and Moorish ruins. It’s one of my favourite places, packed with lively restaurants and the Christmas lights are always outstanding.
I will be returning to Close Mirabel in the South West near Pau in the Jurançon region in April 2026. If you would like to join me at this beautiful location overlooking the Pyrenees please email me.
25 April – 2 May 2026
To secure a place first email me and then you will be asked to pay a deposit of £450 to cover your tuition and admin costs. Then you can book the room of your choice at Clos Mirabel and pay them a small deposit in euros with the final payment to them much nearer the time.
