"This course was absolutely fabulous. The tutors (Jo and Maud) were friendly, expert and just knew the correct amount of help to give without one feeling incompetent! We each made 3 items and can't wait to seem them when they are ground and polished. "

Mike Double reviewed: Glass blowing day experience

"Had another great day out at Chew Valley Glass. Have been hooked on having a class of glass blowing.The experience was so enjoyable and fun with all the experience and patience of Chris . Every step of the process was explained and helped to achieve a remarkable end product we created together. The shapes and colours are created then patience is needed to see the end products. After cooling they are available to take home to show friends. Hopefully they will encourage people to book and enjoy the experience."

"Hi Mike - I think you probably wanted to post this review on another glassmaker's page, not ours?"

Denton Capp reviewed: Glass blowing day experience

"Just attended this course at end of May 2022. Absolutely amazing hands-on experience. The 2 instructors for the 6 of us were super knowledgeable, fun and helpful. Whilst I can imagine it is incredibly hard to master glass blowing, the step by step demos and tuition made it incredibly interactive in making a paperweight, bauble and vessel (vase). It has certainly whet my appetite for more and will be contacting Derek to see if more courses coming to take this further. I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone wanting some hands-on fun for the day. Huge thanks to the tutors for making it such a great day!"

Bransfield Glassmakers responded:

"Thanks so much, Denton! Just the sort of feedback we hope for, and of course we'd love to see you again!"

Jean Mosley reviewed: Glass blowing day experience

"I did this course yesterday (full-day) as a Christmas present. I admit I was apprehensive when it came to it but that was just plain silly. My husband and I had a fabulous day and some wonderful pieces were made by everyone who attended, including the four absolute beginners. Two great tutors who were knowledgable, patient and ever vigilant of safety and quickly all worries about working with 'very hot', molten glass were allayed. Just a wonderful day which I want to repeat to learn new shapes."

Bransfield Glassmakers responded:

"Thank you very much, Jean! So glad you both enjoyed it, and of course we'll be very happy to see you again if (when!) you come again."
