This is an excellent activity that will bring out a creative side in anyone. Jon was fantastic, warm, welcoming and humorous, as well as being highly skilled. His creations are inspirational and you come away reluctantly but with a desire to carry on making pottery. Now, I just need to find myself that kiln.... More

My lovely bridesmaid Lou arranged an afternoon pottery session as a surprise for my hen party and it was fab - we all had a wonderful time. There were 12 of us altogether, and we spent half the session on the wheel throwing pots and the other half creating and painting coil pots. It was really nice to do something... More

we have had several children's parties here and the kids have also been to the holiday activity sessions. Jon the potter is amazing with the kids, very funny and grips their attention. They all love it, right from the toddlers to teenagers. More

We spent the afternoon making coil pots as part of my hen weekend. Jon was great - just the right mix of helpful direction, enthusiasm and laid back fun. We all got in touch with our creative sides and were pretty impressed with what we produced! Would definitely recommend it.... More

Fantastic day overall, learnt lots of new skills, met lovely people and thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Eastnor Pottery!! Managed to create my own pieces which I will be able to use in my own home and feel that I would love to return and learn more, so hopefully before too long I will do so. Would highly recommend it...

A colleague arranged our Team's Christmas get together to feature a little pottery to bring us techie types back down to earth with some real hands on creativity. Jon is such a lovely teacher; calm, patient and funny. He even allowed us to smuggle in some Mince Pies and bubbly to celebrate the morning. I haven't used a potters wheel... More

It was my first time at the potters wheel but Jon is an excellent tutor and by the end of the day I could feel real sense of achievement (really basic stuff but to me they were the fruits of a really enjoyable and absorbing day!). It was a sunny day too and we were provided with a lovely lunch... More

We decided to look for an activity for our children and some of their friends on the day of the public sector strikes. We contacted Jon and he went out of his way to be helpful even though it was not a normal day for the Pottery to open its doors. When we arrived at Eastnor the Pottery was well... More

Thanks for your kind words. It was a pleasure hosting your group and you all made some fabulous coil pots - I'll drop you a line once they are fired and glazed and you definately win top prize for the most unusual mode of travel to the studio! - well done. More

I have just spent 2 days at this brilliant pottery, and highly reccommend it. I have done some slab work before but never been on a potters wheel. But whether you have any experience or are a complete novice its geared up to your needs; check it out online. Jon "the potter" was a brilliant tutor, very relaxed atmosphere, small... More

Your amazing pots were fired this weekend and are nicely cooling in the kiln. We hope to get them safely bubble wrapped & couriered by the end of the week - I'll drop you a line when they leave the Pottery. Thank you once again for attending the weekend potter's wheel workshop and for your super review on trip advisor.... More
