Stitch UK
Luxury Needlepoint retreats in the heart of the historic British landscape
About STITCH UK
Stitch UK Retreats take place once a year in the heart of the British landscape. We take our guests to historic cities and stunning country estates putting them at the centre of the UK’s rich textile history.
Each retreat is organised and hosted by professional needlepoint designers, each with their own unique expertise and experience. Our hosts create bespoke, fully kitted, classes for each of our guests to enjoy .
Our retreats are expertly curated; each location, activity, class, guest speaker and tour are carefully selected to offer our guests a unique experience allowing them access to parts of the UK’s textile culture they wouldn’t normally gain access to.
These Retreats are dedicated to the timeless craft of needlework and are a fantastic opportunity to share skills and stories, build community, forge friendships and most importantly, stitch!

I loved all of the guest speakers this year! I also like how the itinerary was not the exact same as last year, because I like to visit new places (like Jane Austen sites). Getting the book to read before visiting Winchester Cathedral was really special,
