| Are you seeking an unusual alternative holiday?
Or perhaps you’re a workshop facilitator searching out a
venue. Or maybe you’re a potential workshop participant
looking to see what courses and events are on offer. Places to
Be will be your guide on a tour of unusual organisations and residential
facilities throughout Britain and elsewhere. Full page listings
give you a clear idea of what’s available from each venue
or holiday operator. Many more are also listed in lesser detail.
Some offer retreats, some just a space for others to hire. Some
run their own workshops, some just provide a distinctive B&B
service. They are of all shapes and sizes (and spiritual persuasion
or not) but all offer something that little bit different.
Places to Be is aimed at two main groups of people ... individuals
and group facilitators.
The individuals may be looking for:
- a “Bed & Breakfast with a difference” (perhaps
offering healing, massage, tours of ancient sites etc) –
the B&BSeeker’s Index is there to help.
- a retreat (perhaps as an individual or as part of a larger
group) – the Retreat Seeker’s Index lists venues
that offer retreat facilities by type of retreat and spiritual
focus (if any).
- a workshop or course – the Workshop Seeker’s Index
displays centres according to the broad subject areas that they
cover.
The group facilitator may well be running a workshop themselves
or perhaps setting up a small conference or an awayday for a business
or voluntary organisation
- the Venue Seeker’s Index is aimed at people who are looking for a venue
to hire.
This will be the last printed edition of Places to Be to be published in the foreseeable future.
