David Holt reviewed: Woodcarving for beginners - two day course in Suffolk

"Very enjoyable. A small group of us in a well-equipped workshop, and excellent tuition from a professional. Traditional woodcarving with a mallet and chisel can seem daunting, but the chosen projects enabled us to make progress and built confidence to enter a new hobby. Thanks Gerry."

Rachel England reviewed: Woodcarving for beginners - two day course in Suffolk

"We had an amazing time learning to wood carve with Gerry! We were complete beginners and were so pleased with what we were able to achieve by the the end of the weekend - So sad we couldn't have stayed longer and learnt more (Although I'm not too sure my hands would agree)! Highly recommended to ANYONE who wants to have a go at wood carving, no matter your skill level. Also a special thanks to Gerry's wife Barbara for her excellent hospitality, we couldn't have made it through without a delicious lunch, tea and chocolate biscuits! We would absolutely love to attend one of Gerry's courses again in the future but until then we are confident to carry on practicing on our own, with the help of his YouTube videos :-)"

"Had a fantastic weekend, woodcarving for beginners Gerald was a very good teacher, experience is key, a very good insight to his craft. Hopefully going to try at home, now knowing the tools needed, we will see. Lunch was wonderful. Thanks"
