Chris Forsey reviewed: Half-day Blacksmith Experience

"Absolutely brilliant morning. A really hands on experience. Great teaching, and demonstrating of techniques as well as guidance throughout the morning. Thoroughly enjoyable, slightly hot in front of the forge and tiring experience, but in a positive manner... after all you are working metal with hammers etc. Would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to either have a go or thinking about doing blacksmithing as a good taster session of things to come.

"Absolutely perfect. Shaun was a brilliant teacher. It was a fabulous informative and fun day, leaving me with lots of new skills and knowledge and wanting to learn more. Also an aching arm and good workout. I would highly recommend this course. "

"Excellent half day course. Sean was a very good teacher. I was delighted to produce an original ornate candlestick in the session (thanks to Sean’s advice and support!)"

"Amazing day making candle sticks with Sean. We had a fantastic day and were very surprised at just how much we could get done on the half day taster. Sean was very insightful and knowledgeable and gave us everything we needed to learn the craft of blacksmithing."

Jacquie T reviewed: Full Day Set Piece Experience with Orchard Blacksmith

"I bought the day experience for my partner's birthday gift, but didn't want to miss out & came along too! Sean & Ryan took the course. What really lovely & helpful guys they are. We started off gently which was great, it gave us both the confidence for making our 'stand out' piece of 3 coat hooks. The time went quickly which is always a good sign. I can't recommend this experience highly enough. Thank you so much."
