A Must-Do Activity

“I just wanted to thank you so much for your patience and kindness - the classes are the highlight of his week. As well as developing his passion for art it's a lovely social outlet for him. We've been blown away by the creations he's brought home and he's proud to show them off to all our visitors.”

“Had a fantastic afternoon learning various aspects of pottery including using a wheel - made three pieces which are being fired and sent on to my home address. Great premises and superb teacher.”

“What a beautiful and inspiring location to go for a pottery course. The studios were spacious and very well equipped with an outdoor area for anyone wanting fresh air and a very pretty view for the day.
Adrian and the crew were very helpful and I learnt lots in half a day. We got to try slab and coil handbuilding, wheel throwing and sgraffito designs.
I'd thoroughly recommend a course here.”

“Absolutely LOVED this pottery class! It was a full day and we got to do four individual activities. We tried some throwing, we designed a plaque, we decorated a cup and also made a coil clay sculpture. I didn't want the day to end! The materials were plentiful, we had all the tools we needed, and Adrian and Ann were total experts. I'd go back any day.”
