Jacqueline Crooks
Jacqueline Crooks runs a writing retreat in the Andalucian village of Comares, up in the mountains. The accommodation is for writers who want to have a peaceful place to concentrate on their writing. No more than 3 writers accommodated at a time. Beautiful private writing terraces with views into valleys of almond and olive groves. Jacqueline has an MA in Creative & Life Writing from Goldsmiths and is working on her first book.
Comares is the highest pueblo in the region and was once a Moorish bastion, and there are lots of historical remains, lovely walks, a Celtic music and arts scene, and yoga.

An invitation to the Casa Ana Writers' Retreat.
Casa Ana is a beautiful, rambling, 400-year-old Spanish country house,
built in the Moorish mountain style of centuries past. Over the past 2
years the property has been carefully restored, providing quality
accommodation for up to 12 guests.
The house is in Ferreirola, a forgotten hamlet on the southern slopes
of
the Sierra Nevada mountains in Andalucia. The nearest city is Granada
and
the nearest Mediterranean beach is only a 75-minute drive away.
The house will provide an inspiring and tranquil environment in which
to
write. Private or shared rooms or suites are available with individual
writing areas, internet access, and opportunities to exchange ideas
with
other writers over a glass of cold white wine or a delicious
Mediterranean
meal.
