It was a Birthday treat to do something creative and luxurious a d the session really delivered. The setting is beautiful; the room was very relaxing and smelt lovely! Every detail was well thought through- from the tea blends to the, chos n materials and the set up of the activities. Bells was very knowledgeable in her field and the session was extremely informative.
I'd highly recommend it to anyone considering booking a workshop and very much look forward to returning for another session in the near future!

We had a candle making class with Bells and it was a lovely evening. We came for a small birthday gathering and we're made to feel special from the very beginning. Bells is incredibly knowledgeable and generous with that knowledge. She makes all the steps fun and accessible.
We came away with three candles each that are totally personal to us.
We will be booking to do other classes with Bells soon.

Such a great candle making class. Really relaxing, mindful activity, super informative and high quality products! Bruce was so kind and welcoming and made it a really special morning for us! We are over the moon with our beautiful candles!

Absolutely brilliant workshop, so much knowledge and sharing of information. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Paula Heap Jul 2026



A very interesting and informative course, partnered with the creation of your own, personalised candles. As I don't have a good sense of smell, I wasn't sure if I would be able to succeed, but the oils were good and potent, and I was very happy with the end result. Thank you.
The only thing that I found a bit of a challenge was the amount if space that I had on the table provided (I think) by the venue.

Jan Brown Jul 2026



Definitely recommend this course. Our teacher was great he made it informative and fun. Very relaxing!
I now want to book the other courses!

Tina Jul 2026



Nice relaxing afternoon learning how to blend oils to create 3 candles of your choice. Workshop was both informative and relaxing. The pace was lovely, giving you ample time to experiment with a good variety of scents before putting candles together. An excellent way to learn the basics of aromatherapy candles.

Amber Allcock Jul 2026



We had a great time! Bruce was a lovely teacher who was really friendly and gave really clear instructions. We felt there was a perfect amount of time in the workshop and both came away with 3 scent combinations that we were happy with and look forward to burning! Thanks so much! :)

Maureen Jul 2026



I was visiting the area for a short break and had searched for a craft workshop to do. This immediately caught my eye because it was different from the usual offerings and the way the information is presented is very attractive. The workshop space was lovely, tidy and organised, with art and crafts and many products displayed. A welcome of a herbal tea is a nice touch and Bells’ guidance throughout was professional and friendly. My friend and I really enjoyed trying all the different essential oils and choosing our own combinations before making three home aromatherapy products to take away. 100% recommend if you are in the area and Bells says she travels too if you want a group event in your own venue.

Rachel Gibson Jul 2026



Thanks for making it such good fun!

Bethany O Jul 2026



What a wonderful way to spend a Friday evening making natural and sustainable candles whilst enjoying a glass of bubbles (or herbal tea for me!). Our “teacher” Bruce was super lovely and engaging, giving great and clear instructions meaning we all made a set of beautiful candles. The venue its self was easy to find and the room was lovely! The little extra touches like the seed paper for labels and bags to take out candles home were the icing on the cake! We can’t wait to bring our other niece to a future workshop! Thank you! X

We did the Room Smellies Workshop. Had a wonderful afternoon blending essential oils and creating a reed diffuser, room spray & hops bag. Bruce was very warm & welcoming.
It’s was a lovely thing to do & we will definitely be booking on the perfume one next. I recommend parking at Morrisons, paying the £2.50 online to give 3 hours parking.

Nicola Smith Jun 2026



Bruce was amazing, very relaxing day creating gorgeous fragrances. Welcomed with a lovely herbal tea and some exquisite touches to personalize the wax, perfume and diffuser. If you have the chance to go.

Katrina Jun 2026



My daughter and I had a lovely time. We were totally absorbed in what we were doing. Bruce was cheerful and welcoming and taught us step by step what to do. I am motivated to go and make more candles at home. Thank you for a relaxing and inspiring time.

Bruce are teacher was very knowledgeable and helpful during the session. A genuinely lovely person who was passionate about his job and gave great breakfast recommendations for the rest of our day!
We made a reed diffuser, a spray perfume and a balm perfume all of different scents of our choosing.
I liked noting down the scents of what I liked and didn’t and what scents worked well with each other.
Overall positive experience and my friend and I are already planning on selecting another session for the future.

A lovely aromatic experience well guided by Bruce.
Informative in a pleasant, informal setting. The 'small grouping' was conducive to sharing ideas and supporting each other.

This workshop was an inspired Christmas gift from my family, and it was a great experience. The teacher made the whole session easy to follow and throughly enjoyable. I was able to choose the combination of essential oils for my 3 candles, and I'm looking forward to burning them and filling the room with their fragrance. I definitely recommend this workshop. Many thanks.

Melanie Scott Apr 2026



We had a fantastic perfume making class with Bruce. It was a Mother’s Day gift for my mum and myself. She loved it. Bruce explained everything really well, was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed learning about different essential oils and we created three blends to make a spray perfume, room diffuser and solid cream perfume. All of the bottle tags and the information leaflet to keep were plantable seeded paper. I would recommend this lovely workshop to everyone thank you Bruce

We had such a fantastic experience at the perfume-making class with Bruce! From the moment we started, he made everyone feel welcome and at ease. He’s incredibly knowledgeable but explains everything in a really approachable, engaging way.
The class itself was so much fun—getting to experiment with different scents and create something uniquely our own was both relaxing and inspiring. Bruce was always on hand to guide us, offering helpful suggestions while still encouraging creativity and personal expression.

All the materials were top quality and we came away with three candles that smell delicious
