  • 5/5 from Nina Marshall, attended Jul 2026: Bought for us as a gift. The studio and teachers were excellent. A great location with plenty of parking close by. The class was given clear step by step instructions from unwrapping your clay to building your finished product. A great 3 hours and worth every penny
  • 5/5 from Emma Booth, attended Jul 2026: My daughter and I had such a great time, the class is easy to follow, fun and you can buy hot and cold drinks on site. Highly recommended.
  • 5/5 from Olivia Fox-Pashley, attended Jul 2026: Absolutely wonderful time. The 3-4 hours genuinely flew by and the instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Although they are large classes, you still get the help you'd expect as the instructors go round and make sure each individual is keeping up and managing. Staff were all kind and friendly and showed clear instructions. I had booked it as a nice little date put with my partner and she absolutely loved it, so there’s definitely some brownie points to be earned! All in all a lovely little day out and something for most ages. They also serve fopd and drink which was a really nice touch.

  • 5/5 from Michelle Mason, attended Jun 2025: Fantastic experience from start to finish. I am looking at the next available classes to rebook into! I was late due to motorway traffic but was welcomed into the group as soon as I stepped through the door, sat down and caught up with some 1:1 from the teacher. Amazing how 1 teacher can talk to 20 people and we all produced very different looking cows. Teacher very engaging and ensured everyone saw the next step whilst walking around the workshop. If you're contemplating booking, stop thinking about it and just do it; you will not be disappointed
