We have named the files for this page after the artist Katelijne van Oudenaarde, who gave us this idea for a section on residential holidays with an activity in mind. Perhaps you have always wanted to try pottery or painting etc. We hope to develop this page with many different ideas for spending your holiday trying something new or pursuing your hobby.
