Jane Powell reviewed: Monthly Pottery Classes

"We had a great time at this pottery course. There was a mixture of people like us who hadn’t done it before and others who were more experienced. Louise made the projects accessible for us newbies by providing guidance and support at key moments, whilst also providing sufficient challenge for the others. Thank you! "

Stanwick Lakes Art and Craft Courses responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to leave us review. We are very pleased you enjoyed the workshop and hope to see you here at Stanwick Lakes again soon. Best wishes, The Stanwick Lakes team."

Gerry Lear reviewed: Introduction to Traditional Leaded Stained-Glass Course, 2 days

"I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Jo is a lovely teacher with lots of experience in getting the best out of her students. Her encouragement and patience was welcomed. I found the course very relaxing and friendly. I would definitely recommend this course, a great introduction to stained glass windows. Thank you Jo."

Stanwick Lakes Art and Craft Courses responded:

"Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a lovely review. We are very pleased you enjoyed the workshop and shall let Jo know too. Best wishes, The Stanwick Lakes team. "

Jayson Winters reviewed: Introduction to Traditional Leaded Stained-Glass Course, 2 days

"Very enjoyable, informative and well structured course. Our tutor was highly knowledgeable and supportive in helping us learn and understand whilst completing our course pieces. For people who don't know (I didn't), it might be worth including in the course write up that 'traditional stained glass' is lead-based ie. not copper foil-based."

Stanwick Lakes Art and Craft Courses responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very happy that you enjoyed the workshop. We shall pass your feedback onto the course tutor. We hope to see you here at Stanwick Lakes again soon. Best wishes, The Stanwick Lakes team. "
