"Absolutely brilliant. We learned so much from Jeremy who is clearly a very talented blacksmith. He explained things really well and gave us confidence to try so many different techniques. We came away with some beautiful fireside tools. Highly recommend this. "

"I recently had the chance to join Jeremy for a blacksmithing experience, which I had wanted to do for years. It was an awesome birthday present! The session was very hands-on, and Jeremy was a great teacher—patient and knowledgeable. It was fantastic to walk away with something I had made myself. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone interested in giving blacksmithing a go."

"My son had an amazing time learning from Jeremy. We took Charlie for a session for his birthday and he was so pleased with the tongs that he made which he has been able to use whilst forging at home. Jeremy is a great teacher who gave Charlie lots of advice on his technique and on how to improve his home made forge. Would thoroughly recommend this course."

"An amazing course for anyone looking to learn the basics of blacksmithing whilst being able to walk away with a finished product the same day. Jeremy was a great tutor who expertly walked me through each step whilst explaining the history behind the tools and profession. The forge itself was incredible and in such a lovely part of Cornwall. I quickly felt confident handling the metal and tools during the practice session before we moved onto the real piece. It was great being able to use both traditional and modern tools as well as understanding more about the heat treatment process. Would highly recommend this course!"

"Absolutely amazing day in the smithy with Jeremy, he was calm and put me at ease straight away. He was thorough in his explanations and very patient whilst we practiced the basic techniques. He was open to my ideas and gave me the confidence to try lots of techniques. I came away exhausted but exhilarated with my garden sculpture which will take pride of place. "
