Pottery Painting is the perfect activity to suit a variety of interests and abilities.

Everyone can get creative in a fun and relaxed environment with very friendly staff.

We supply everything needed to create your own masterpiece!

We have over 100 different items of pottery to choose from: mugs, bowls, plates, jugs, vases, platters, lanterns, figurines, trinket boxes, homewares, decorative pieces, and more. There is something for everyone!

Our studio fee is £5.50 per person, which covers all of our paint colours, finishing glaze application, and firing costs. All pieces are fired in our kilns and will be food-safe upon collection. Blank pottery is simply chosen and paid for on the day you paint. Our average pieces range from £10-£20, with our whole selection starting at £4 (magnet) and going up to £40 (large vase).

On the day, we provide paintbrushes, stencils, tools, and everything needed to get creative. We allow snacks and drinks to be brought in, and do not charge a corkage fee.

"Went to do the painting session at 16.30 on a Saturday, place was very busy and was a great atmosphere. I've never done anything like this before but really enjoyed it as a date night. Staff were informative and attentive and seemed to really enjoy their work. We'll definitely be back to try the pottery class next!"

Definitely recommend!"
"Cannot recommend this enough as a fun night out or day activity! The other groups seemed to be having a laugh while me and my sister got far too in to the painting. Serious or silly, either way so much fun."
