"A brilliant basket making course, from start to finish. Johnny & Becky have a well structured method of teaching, the day went like clockwork. Such an enjoyable day spent at their lovely workshop in an idyllic location. I was totally amazed that the basket made was as big & strong as it was, couldnt wait to bring my first attempt home to show it off . Thank you so much both."

"My partner and I absolutely loved this workshop. We each completed a basket. We were able to each make a different basket-him a large round basket and me a foraging basket. We love them and they will be very useful. Becky and Johnny were very good teachers and the lunch was delicious. I thoroughly recommend this workshop."

"What I considered would be impossible was, as it turned out, possible. With expert tuition, a guiding hand when needed, patience and a little help when my arthritis played up, I produced a lovely basket to keep logs in. And there was cake and endless cups of tea!"

Geoff Benn reviewed: Foraging Basket

"Super day with a real sense of achievement at the end. Jonny and Becky are excellent tutors of the novice, encouraging and supportive but also on hand to rescue students when they go wrong! Not the easiest venue to find but well worth it when you get there. Lunch was excellent. Enjoyed immensely and considering now to do the more advanced course."

"A wonderful day spent weaving a Foragers Basket. This was my second weaving course and I am glad it was this one. Becky and Jonny were both on hand to help and patient. I loved the fact that we were able to get on with it and do as much as each person could. A small group, there were 4 of us. Lunch was extra, well worth it and highly recommended."

Dorset Dumples reviewed: Basket making for beginners using traditional willow basketry techniques

"Thoroughly enjoyed making our Willow Baskets yesterday. John & Becky were brilliant! Very knowledgable and gave great 1-to-1 tuition on the difficult bits. Both my husband and I have problems with our hands because of Arthritis and were not sure if we would be able to achieve our basket making aims. No fears there! With the expert tuition and care we managed to produce a respectable “first” time effort. Would definitely recommend taking this course to all. The lunch provided by their friend & Caterer looked very lush, not to mention the dessert Apricot Tart, too. Wished our special dietary requirements allowed us to partake in the lunch, it all looked delicious! "
