The WRITERS' HOLIDAY at Caerleon is the annual Writers' Conference for all standards of writer from the absolute beginner to the best-selling author.

WRITERS' HOLIDAY is held at the end of July each year at the Caerleon Campus, University of Wales' College, Caerleon, Newport, South Wales, UK.

It is a six day, residential Writers' Conference with 150 delegates staying in new, single and en-suite accommodation - and everything takes place within 100 yards of  the main building.

The food is excellent, and the company is even better.

There is a twelve course choice (and you can follow two courses during the week), together with a host of main lectures taking place during the afternoons and evenings throughout the conference, as well as numerous after-tea sessions of seminars, talks, discussion groups and workshops on a wide variety of topics and genres.

Wednesday afternoon is taken up with a choice of FREE excursions, and the final Thursday evening 'Welsh Night' private concert by one of Wales' top male voice choirs is not to be missed.

WRITERS' HOLIDAY was set up in1986 by Anne Hobbs, is run by writers, for writers - and receives no financial assistance from any source whatsoever.

It is your conference ...and by not taking the money, we do not have to compromise.

 All this is wrapped up in a totally informal and relaxed setting - it's up to you what you choose to do throughout the week ...but it's all there for you from 9.00am-late each day - just take what you want.

If you have not been to WRITERS' HOLIDAY at Caerleon, you don't know what you've been missing.
