Scenic Serenity at Hotel Nestor in Korpo Archipelago

Picture this: the idyllic surroundings of a calm archipelago hotel, the click-clack of knitting needles, and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee floating in the air. Welcome to a weekend where you're not just a participant; you're an honored guest in a scenic setup that whispers relaxation at every turn. The Retreat takes place in the charming Hotel Nestor, tucked away in the Korpo Archipelago. This retreat isn't your typical event; it's a top-notch experience with a sprinkle of luxury.

All Levels Welcome: Crafting Harmony at Hotel Nestor

At the heart of the retreat is a gathering of knitting enthusiasts, each bringing a unique level of expertise and experience. The idyllic Hotel Nestor, with its tranquil ambiance, sets the stage for a journey into the world of knitting like never before. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a novice, this retreat caters to all levels, ensuring everyone feels at home in their creative pursuits.

Crafting, Workshopping, and Creativity

The schedule is as varied as the crowd. Work on your ongoing projects, swap ideas with fellow knitters, dive into a workshop to finesse your skills, or kick off a new project under the guidance of our hosts, Marina Stenbäck and Tanja Holm. Need supplies? No problem! There's an on-site knitting pop-up shop where you can grab the perfect yarn and needles for a spur-of-the-moment project.

From Workshop to Culinary Excellence

Saturday kicks off with a knitting workshop, and the afternoon invites you to unwind with a sauna experience, setting the stage for an exquisite evening. Indulge in a culinary masterpiece with a 5-course tasting menu prepared by the talented William Hellgren, Hotel Nestor's own culinary maestro, who used to work at a Michelin-starred restaurant in Stockholm, but now runs the charming family owned business. 

All-Inclusive Retreat: Your Ticket to Blissful Weekend

The retreat cost covers your retreat program, an overnight stay in a delightful double room at Hotel Nestor, Saturday lunch, sauna and jacuzzi access, a gourmet 5-course dinner on Saturday evening, and a delicious brunch on Sunday. Accommodations are arranged in cosy two-person rooms, with roommates chosen with care to ensure a harmonious retreat experience.
