Choral Singing Weekend at the Yarn Market Hotel, Dunster
The Yarn Market Hotel in the heart of historic Dunster is delighted to welcome singers to a very special Choral Singing Weekend led by the acclaimed music director Robyn Sevastos. Set against the timeless beauty of Exmoor, this uplifting weekend offers the perfect blend of musical excellence, warm hospitality and inspiring surroundings.
Open to singers of all abilities, the weekend is designed to be inclusive, encouraging and above all enjoyable. Under Robyn Sevastos’s expert direction, participants will explore a carefully chosen repertoire that is both accessible and rewarding, with a strong focus on musical expression, ensemble singing and confidence-building. Whether you are a seasoned chorister or someone who simply loves to sing, you will find yourself supported, challenged and inspired.
Between singing sessions, guests can relax in the comfort of the Yarn Market Hotel, known for its friendly atmosphere, excellent cuisine and historic charm. The village of Dunster, with its medieval streets, castle, and independent shops, provides a delightful backdrop for gentle exploration, while Exmoor’s landscape offers space to breathe, reflect and recharge.
This weekend is about more than music – it is about connection.
Singing together creates friendships, lifts spirits, and leaves lasting memories. Many participants return year after year, drawn by the unique combination of high-quality musical leadership and the welcoming community that the Yarn Market Hotel so proudly fosters.
The weekend concludes with a free public performance at the historic Dunster Tithe Barn, inviting the local community and visitors to enjoy the music created during the weekend. Complimentary drinks – including wine, tea, coffee and juices – will be provided, with a retiring collection in aid of a local charity.
Whether you are an experienced chorister or simply enjoy singing for pleasure, this is a weekend not to be missed
