The teacher (Anil? I think was his name) was a good teacher and patient. I enjoyed the experience and would want to do more of this. Good, calm and sociable environment.

Honestly I can’t recommend this class. This was a very awkward and uncomfortable experience. The teacher was new and couldn’t explain herself well in English. Then another teacher arrived and he seemed to be mad with us (or maybe with her). The class started more than 10 minutes late and 5 minutes before the end we were told the class finished. One of the teachers dropped my coffee and didn’t even offer a new one. He also touch my clothes in the part that the apron did not cover and left it all dirty with clay. Did not apologize for this either. I had to pay 5 gbp extra to glaze the clay and they didn’t even contact me to let me know when it was ready to pick up. It was also a bit misleading as they charge you 5 but you can do two pots with that but that’s never mentioned when you book it.

The instructor was very nice and helpful and the space was great (though very cold!) I did the class with my 10 year old granddaughter, who did very well considering being smaller than an adult. We paid for firing our pots and would like to come back to do a glazing and painting session. I do not find it easy to find classes on the website however.
