Joy reviewed: Craft Your Own Longbow: One To One Woodworking Class

"I had a lovely day learning how to make a bow. Matt is very knowledgeable and manages an excellent balance between showing you the tools and techniques, and helping out when needed. The location is beautiful, and well maintained. Despite taking the course in late autumn, we kept dry and warm in the shelter, and had lots of hot coffee! I'm very pleased with my final bow - it's exactly the right draw for me. Thank you!"

Manor Wood responded:

"Hi Joy, thank you for the lovely review! It so nice to have you at Manor Wood. Really glad you enjoyed the course and are pleased with your longbow. Hope to see you again. Matt"
