Crafting in the Cotswolds – what’s not to love? Lechlade Craft Barn offers craft workshops in the pretty Cotswolds market town of Lechlade on Thames. The Craft Barn is an attractive old stone barn at Karen's home and is the perfect setting to discover and develop your crafting skills. Owner Karen has a long-held passion for crafting, with backgrounds in retail and event management. Along with her workshops, she is joined by a talented team of guest tutors who offer a wide range of craft workshops. The barn is accessed via external stone steps with handrails on either side and unfortunately may not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Some workshops are delivered nearby in the bright and spacious Memorial Hall complex and other local venues.

"The copper foil stained glass course was excellent. I had never worked with glass before, but the tutor Sharon explained everything clearly and was always available to help which gives you confidence. The course was extremely well organised, there was lots of choice of materials and everyone was able to finish pieces. I enjoyed the day, and took home two finished items."

Ian Clemm reviewed: Silver Clay Jewellery Workshop in The Cotswolds - Gloucestershire/Wiltshire/Oxfordshire

"I had a very enjoyable day learning all about silver clay and made some lovely pendants to take away. They must be good as I’ve got my wife and daughter fighting over them. The tutor was great, the setup and personal touch of a goodie bag was a very nice touch. I can thoroughly recommend this if you have never done this before, or even if you have. As the only male on the day I was made to feel welcome and part of the group. "

"Absolutely top tier! Kelly the instructor and Karen the owner were both fantastic. Kelly has a wonderfully relaxed yet no-nonsense teaching style that the entire group was able to work with extremely well. We never felt rushed and could ask all the questions we needed. Course included great information on general and practical aspects of both technique and supplies. Would highly recommend the course and the venue to anyone."
