Pottery Retreat residents stay at the Potters Villa during their time here. The villa is a small building towards the far end of the property; it faces the orchard and is a two-minute walk from the studio. It can house 8 residents at any given time. The villa is a cozy space with all rooms opening onto a central lounge where residents get together for meals, music and socializing with other residents.
