Hello SoGlos reader.
Warm welcome to Kingshill House!

We are a thriving Art, Craft, Health and Wellbeing centre in the beautiful Cotswolds market town of Dursley. 

We believe that Art and Craft is for everyone, and Kingshill House is a safe space that anyone can come, be creative, enjoy themselves, relax and take their minds off things.  

What's On at Kingshill House

We provide a comprehensive programme of courses and workshops, along with events, exhibitions and markets that are held regularly throughout the year. We aim to curate and run an interesting, challenging, educational, fun and diverse programme. Art and Craft is a powerful tool and our mission is to heal the Mind by focusing on creativity, boosting self-confidence and discovering new strengths and abilities.   

From ceramics to weaving, pamper hampers to creative writing - our programme is eclectic, fun and inspiring. For a full list of what's on, check our our workshops and courses pages. 

Creative Summer School
​Monday 11th - Friday 15th July 2022

Our Creative Summer School has just been launched and you are welcome to join us on this week-long programme, thoughtfully curated to inspire creativity in a mindful and sociable environment.
Workshops will be educational, immersive, and fun. Our varied programme includes lost arts that are making a modern comeback as well as newer crafts that are trending right now. Some offer practical skills and others delight with their quirkiness.
Our tutors have tailored their workshops to complement this year’s focus – Nature. 

A big thank you to Sage Residential for officially supporting the Kingshill House Creative Summer School and enabling the acquisition of four new easels which will be gratefully used during our workshops.

For Sage Residential a home is a home, rather than merely a house. For both sellers and buyers they take time to understand individual circumstances and motivation to ensure seller’s homes are well-represented, alongside prospective buyers receiving the best service possible.
Adopting a very human approach to moving house, the Sage Residential team are adept at adapting to client’s circumstances, and representing their individual needs, with an entirely bespoke, personal and candid property marketing service.
Creativity, attention to detail, a passion for property and exceptional customer service all allow Sage Residential to elevate their property marketing above the norm’, doing justice to beautifully crafted, much loved homes.
Kingshill House is delighted to be partnering with Sage Residential in the Creative Summer School 2022.

Wellbeing Classes & Groups

In addition to hosting structured workshops and courses, Kingshill House also delivers informal classes, groups and clubs, who meet regularly at various times and days of the week. Covering a wide range of interests, there is something to suit everyone - from Kundalini Yoga to Tai-Chi. Find out more here.

Family Activities

For 2022 we are curating a family workshop programme. We will have drop-in creative stay and play (lots of fun with different craft materials), music sessions with our own DJ, Joe (come for a boogie!) and lots of outdoor fun in our garden. Have a look to see what's coming up next on our families page. 

Let's Create -
Second Saturdays of the Month


Come and join us for some creative and imaginative play at Kingshill House! We have lots of materials that children can make into whatever they wish - let their imagination run wild!
Take part in the fun or watch in wonder as the young people create, play freely and explore their imagination in a child focused, informal space.
