Arriera Experiences is a project that creates creative, artistic and gastronomic retreats and workshops in Castilla-La Mancha (a region in central Spain). We work across small cities and towns in the region such as Almagro, Miguelturra and Ciudad Real, collaborating with local artisans and artists to create authentic experiences that bring rural Spain to life (for those who live there and for those who come to discover it).
If you also need a pause, a chance to reconnect, create and simply enjoy, this could be your place.
At Arriera, we are committed to small towns and settings far removed from the noise and hustle and bustle of large cities. We want to celebrate the local area, shared experiences and a different way of travelling: purpose-driven tourism.
We work closely with craftswomen, artists and local projects that form part of Spain’s rural ecosystem. Together, we create creative, authentic and thoughtfully curated experiences: art workshops, retreats, gatherings and activities that bring people and their surroundings closer together.
Are you a craftsperson, an artist, or do you have a related project? We’d love to hear from you. If you like what we do and would like to collaborate, please get in touch with no obligation – we’d love to see what we can create together!
If you feel like trying out new techniques, getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and treating yourself to some creative time in a cosy setting, our creative workshops and retreats are the place for you.
You don’t need any previous experience, just a desire to create and share. We provide the materials, step-by-step guidance and a friendly atmosphere, always with the aim of ensuring you enjoy the process to the full.
