Testimonials

"Have been here 4 occasions with my daughters, I've been myself twice & also done a class last night! The staff are amazing, helpful & so friendly. Highly recommended."
- Lynda-Jane Sharp |
"We really enjoyed the spooky block printing workshop, even my son who was a bit worried that he wouldn't. Our host Daisy was really friendly, as were all members of staff we encountered. Factor in the free parking for 3 hours close by ... plus a friendly... market town with a great variety of shops to mooch about afterwards made for an excellent trip out from Reading. Thanks Pottery Place, we hope to be back" - Natalie Burton
