I am a bit of a fan of the tv show Blown Away - so for Christmas my husband purchased us this class as a gift. What a gift it was. Our teacher Nick was knowledgeable, friendly and would assist when needed. All of the materials and equipment were included. I truly enjoyed choosing my colours and challenging myself with new skills. We’re already talking about our next class!

Sulna van Wyk
Booked with my sister and mum as a gift for Mother’s Day, from the start the staff made us feel very welcome. We enjoyed a coffee before getting into it. Staff made it fun and entertaining while teaching us the secret to making the best gnocchi. Then we enjoyed a glass of wine served with Gnocchi and got a kit to take home.
Amanda Trinder
The class was an early Mother’s Day gift and my teenagers came as company. We had a great time. We’d never used a potters wheel before and it was great fun. I surprised myself with my creations. The teacher was very helpful with a good demo at the start and was very encouraging.

Blacksmithing Class for Beginners
This was a Christmas present that my daughter bought me and in return I got her a voucher to. The venue is small, but it was also a small class so no problems. Our teacher Ron gave us our safety gear and talk. As it was only a beginner's class, we did not expect too much, but we made an "S" hook with a twist out of 10mm straight bar. Ron's helping hands and knowledge guided us. Both of us really enjoyed + more
