Studio Hire in the Scalp

We have repeatedly been asked to organise painting facilities for the group. A studio with access to cottage style garden is available to hire in the Scalp, Kilternan.  The facilities are excellent with bright whitewashed walls, wood burning stove and kitchen. This setting seems ideal as apart from the indoor facilities, the garden and buildings would make good subjects for painting (weather permitting). The price is very reasonable and with a small subsidy from the group the cost per person is low. Each session would be for half a day.  (Easels not supplied). Knockrose website
