What a great experience. I did the short session which is 2 hours long and covers a range of different pottery techniques - which I won't spoil, but more details are on the website if you want to book. You can take a drink but don't need anything else, an apron and all the tools are provided. Wear something short sleeved or where the sleeves can be rolled up as it can get a little messy. Our teacher was great, full of facts and knowledge from his experiences. The pieces you make and want to keep and be fired for a small additional cost per piece or can be taken home to dry naturally and then painted. Anything you don't want can be left and is recycled. There's parking outside the barn too. Would 100% recommend for a bit of fun.
