A wonderfully rustic pottery workshop to lose yourself & relax for a few hours. Michelle was informative, knowledgeable & exceptionally hospitable. A quick & gentle guide on how to use the paints & then we were released to allow our creative juices to flow. Huge amount of choice on what to print as well as tools to support. Overall, a lovely few hours spent & now looking forward to collecting the finished piece!

I had a fantastic time today creating pottery of my baby’s handprints and footprints. Michelle was fantastic getting them done and helping me finish the pottery with a baby there. She was very patient! I have some great Father’s Day presents. The chocolate cake is also very good and it’s a lovely place to go for a cup of tea. There are also lots of workshops available which I would love to try.

My daughter has just had her 8th birthday party here at Belles pottery, 12 children all had a wonderful time painting the items they chose, milkshakes and cookies and a beautiful plate for the birthday girl with her hand print and her friends fingerprints on, Staff were amazing and very helpful with the children. We had two aunties with us who also painted items and had the best time! Highly recommend

Had a lovely time painting in the studio today. There were six of us (2 adults, 4 kids), and the staff made us feel so welcome. After a quick tutorial, you are let lose, and encouraged to try different techniques with plenty of pots and paint colours to choose from. Will certainly visit again soon. :)
