"What a great day it was yesterday.Not knowing what to expect the day flowed so smoothly.No stress just a relaxing atmosphere of well taught productivity. Did not expect to produce 4 pots all decorated and ready for firing.I would recommend this day course to anyone wanting a taste of what can be achieved beginner or not it can be tailored to your needs even within the same group.I had a Great time.Hope you fo too."

Ian Mann reviewed: Beginners Pottery Day Course

"I was given the day course for my 70th birthday present and as a complete novice I managed to achieve a lot more than I thought I would and I really enjoyed the whole experience. You can't go wrong with Mathew guiding you through the day. I would recommend this course to anyone that would like to have a go at pottery. Well worth the money. Thanks Mathew."
