• 5/5 from Ken McKay, attended Sep 2026: My 1st time ever using a potters wheel - what a fun treat despite being a learning curve not far off the vertical!! Calming gentle music, a lovely welcoming atmosphere and some chocolate as reward all combined to make this 2 hour introductory class a thoroughly enjoyable and positively memorable happy experience! Thanks to Akiko, who's lovey, patient and kind manner shines through, I managed to 'pott' 2 pieces that will hopefully survive 2 firings! Akiko is a highly skilled potter, teacher and an inspiration - I will be back in her studio to have another go at this wonderful therapeutic craft!!

• 5/5 from Michael Trimble, attended Jan 2026: The wheel throwing pottery class was a lot of fun and a great environment to give it a go and learn. Akiko, out teacher, was very welcoming and passionate about pottery, encouraging us to give it a go and learn. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to give pottery a go for the first time!
• 5/5 from Sarah Macpherson, attended Jan 2026: Chiara was very friendly and patient. She demonstrated the process very clearly and helped us create 2 pots each which felt like a great achievement. It was a very enjoyable afternoon and I would thoroughly recommend.
• 4/5 from Rosie Shackleton, attended Jan 2026: Chiara was a lovely tutor and really helpful! I did wish we'd spent more time on the wheel (the class was split between pinch pot and wheel throwing) as it's not necessarily one of those skills you get straight away, or on the first go. I'd have liked more time to make mistakes and get the hang of it. But as a taster, the class was great, the facilities are fab and it was a really supportive, friendly atmosphere to try something new! Would really recommend for a couple/ few friends as a group activity!
