Writing Workshop: Juliet Kinsman

Writing Ecologies

Deepen your connection with nature through this writing workshop in the midst of our Conservatory, guided by an established author. 

Whether writing is your hobby or profession, you are welcome in this unique salon to delve into our deep connection with nature and ecology.

You will begin the gathering in conversation and a Q&A with our guest author, who will then give you a prompt followed by some time to write in the hush of the Conservatory. Five works will bloom from the series, shared in a literary celebration and live performance on 1 Feb 2026. 

Juliet Kinsman is an editor, journalist, speaker, and consultant who shares stories to inspire impact. As founding editor of Mr & Mrs Smith, a broadcaster, and author of many guidebooks, such as The Green Edit: Travel — Easy Tips for the Eco-Friendly Traveler (Ebury) and The Bucket List: Eco Experiences (Rizzoli), Juliet has shifted the narrative of boutique travel and sustainable luxury.
