The arniano painting school at pylewell

In August 2020 we were delighted to take the Arniano Painting School to Pylewell Park, the family home of our co-founder and art tutor William Roper-Curzon. Located on a beautiful private estate in Hampshire, England, Pylewell is where William grew up and drew his early creative inspiration. The house is unusual in standing directly overlooking the sea, with dreamy views towards the Solent and the Isle of Wight, and is set amid acres of lush formal and informal gardens, with a lake, walled garden and mill. As such, it is the ideal setting for the adventurous outdoor painter. Building on the success of that first course away from Arniano, we returned to Pylewell in June 2021 and September 2022 and now have a course at Pylewell lined up for June 2023. Please contact arnianoreservations@gmail.com for more details or to register your interest for either course. As at Arniano, the courses combine William’s expert tuition with Amber’s Italian-influenced home cooking. Guests can expect the relaxed atmosphere of a country house weekend, where painting and drawing are equal to feasting and good company in the most inspiring of settings. All 10 bedrooms are newly refurbished, so guests can look forward to the highest levels of comfort. We look forward to welcoming you to Arniano-on-Sea!
