Peter Sage reviewed: Introduction to soap making

"What a great day, learned so much. Not within Sarah or anyone's gift, but research you route! Is you are not local and choise to drive, Google maps and satnav does send you on a picturesque route, north Devon has some loverly very minor roads, with grass up the middle....with a little research there is a direct route and it's loverly, just don't blindly follow satnav well worth the day out. Thank you"

Catharine Meakin reviewed: Introduction to soap making

"What a fantastic day. Gorgeous location, if I wasn’t local to the South West I would make a weekend of it as Clovelly is beautiful. Learnt so much from Sarah. She is passionate about her craft and happy to pass on her knowledge and skill. Have come home hugely inspired with a large amount of wonderful smelling soaps. Will definitely be starting to do this at home and will book more of her classes in the future. I can’t recommend this enough to others."

Rowan Tree Studio responded:

"Thanks Catharine, lovely to see you again"

Ann Cooper reviewed: Introduction to soap making

"From start to finish this was a great workshop. I specifically chose to go to Sarah because of her long and extensive experience - both in making soap as a very successful business and her teaching experience over that time. Thanks Sarah!"

Rowan Tree Studio responded:

"Thank you Ann, it was lovely to finally get you up to the studio! Glad you enjoyed it. Sarah"

Priscilla White reviewed: Introduction to soap making

"Thank you Sarah - I came to your soap-making course in October (my birthday) and had a great day. I kept most of my soap to give as presents at Christmas and have had the most amazing feedback from family and friends! The last few bars I'm keeping for myself and while they were maturing the smell scented my bedroom beautifully. I will be back!!"

Wendy Moir reviewed: Advanced Soap Making

"What a fabulous day. A full day that just went too quickly. Sarah and her husband are very generous with their time and expertise. Lots of support provided. Plus lunch and fabulous homemade cake was a bonus. I've come away buzzing and will definitely be back for more. I've been on a few soap making courses and this is by far the best. Would highly recommend this course to anyone."

Lucy reviewed: Natural Perfumery

"This was something I had wanted to do for a while and it did not disappoint. I came away with two perfumes that I like very much. Really enjoyed creating the different accords of scents that appealed to me; then learning how to blend and adjust them to create my final unique perfume. The banana cake was really a winner with us all, too."

Susan reviewed: Natural Perfumery

"Really enjoyed the day as it was informative without being too technical and we got the chance to smell such a wide variety of essential oils. Blending my own perfume was the highlight and involved quite a bit of change but I ended up with a product that I am happy with ... Sarah is passionate about what she does and this comes through in her sharing. Plus Great Cake! All in all a great way to spend a day."

Stephanie Stace reviewed: Natural Perfumery

"Very interesting and enjoyable day. We learnt such a lot and it gave us a good grounding to go forward and create our own perfumes."
