Get your hands dirty
Workshops that stay with you
From the ring of hammer on anvil to the quiet focus of a jeweller's bench — our workshops are led by master craftspeople in the Somerset countryside. No experience needed. Just curiosity and a willingness to make something real.
Full day
Blacksmithing
Forge hot metal into something lasting. Feel the heat, hear the ring, and leave with a piece you made yourself.

Jewellery Making
Work with silver and copper under the guidance of a master jeweller. Rings, pendants, and more — all made by your own hands.

Stone Carving
Chisel and shape local Somerset stone into sculpture. A meditative, deeply satisfying craft that connects you to the land.

Where you'll rest
Wake up in Somerset
No two stays are the same. From converted stone barns to shepherd's huts tucked into the hillside — our accommodation is as carefully crafted as the workshops themselves. Fall asleep to silence. Wake to birdsong and the smell of woodsmoke.
The evening table
Eat well. Eat together.
After a day of making, gather around the table. Our evening dining is built on Somerset's finest produce — local meats, orchard fruits, artisan cheeses, and cider pressed just down the lane. Shared plates, candlelight, and good company.
