One of the best experiences we've had in a long time! I took my Mum with me for a birthday treat for 3 hours - we had a go at making some pinch pots and also had a go at the potters wheel which was super fun.We made so many different pieces, and Simon is kindly fitting and glazing them for us ☺️Simon was so knowledgeable and helpful with pottery making, plus we all had such a laugh! We'll definitely be back with friends and family in the future!

Myself and my partner had a 3 hour lesson with Simon, we went from not having a clue, to making some fantastic pottery. He is a great teacher and explains things so well. Ifyou are thinking of having a go then definitely give him a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Simon was friendly, professional and a great teacher. Incredible value for money and I will be going back time and time again. Great artist and great person. 10/10. I’d give more stars if I could.

I had a 1:1 session with Simon and loved it! I’d never done any pottery before and was able to get some great items to keep. He made me feel so comfortable and was great fun. Would really recommend anyone to do a class! Thanks so much Simon!

I had a one-to-one pottery class with Simon and it was such a great experience. He is a great teacher and I actually managed to make mugs and a bowl which he fired for me and I now use every day! Cannot recommend highly enough - worth every penny!!

Simon is an incredible teacher and such fun company! We took a 4 week course with him (2 hours in the evening a week). We learned how to hand build, use the wheel with the BEST techniques that professionals use, learned how to glaze and decorate with slip and importantly took home so many beautiful pieces we now cherish! Please have a look at the photos hahaha there was no limit to creativity we could have, we could make as many pieces as we had time for and Simon came with so much advice!! He is absolute great! Please take a class with him if you want to get in to pottery - you will learn so so much and get surrounded by amazing people too. We now purchased our own clay and glazes to start hand building at home because of the confidence we've gained with Simon. Cannot thank you enough!

Had the group pottery classes booked for February as a Christmas present and it was amazing! Simon was so welcoming and knowledgable and even when you’re not great at something he’s always so positive and supportive. The small group setting was a great way to learn something new, chat to new people and relax. I had my last class this evening and I’m sad that it’s over- will 100% be getting another group session or single sessions booked ASAP! If you’re unsure/ scared to give it a go, you won’t regret it! It’s the best thing I’ve done for ages☺️P.S- thank you Simon & see you soon!

As a complete newbie to pottery, I had an amazing 4 weeks of classes with Simon. He's brilliant teacher, very knowledgeable, but also very chilled, and super helpful. His demonstrations were very easy to understand and follow, and most of the class time was dedicated to actually creating pottery; either on the potters wheel or through hand-building. You can create virtually anything, and there is lots of choice for glazing/colouring/finishing your pottery items. I really enjoyed the course, and highly recommend :)
