Lesson Info
The lesson if based in my studio, on my farm in the heart of the Brecon Beacons. The road to the farm is a typical single track country lane, so please take care when driving as there may be oncoming vehicles. NB: The postcode may take you to our neighbours’ property, please carry on to the end of the lane.
From my farm, on a nice day you can enjoy breath-taking views of the Brecon Beacons. You are welcome to stay and have a picnic lunch or just sit for a while on a picnic table in our garden.
Also, less than a 5 minute drive away is the National Park Visitor Centre, where you can browse their shop with lots of local products and crafts and have some food or drink from their café. The common land surrounding the visitor centre is also a great place to go for a walk. If you want, you can walk from our farm and along to the visitor centre, just let us know and we can provide you with directions.
You can also visit Brecon town or explore the Brecon Beacons.
Please park in the Beacons Pottery parking space, if available. Then follow signs to Beacons Pottery and come on in!
Clay is messy by nature, so wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. Aprons are provided and clay will usually wash out of clothing. Beacons Pottery takes no responsibility for any damage to your personal items.
Anyone can have a go at throwing on the wheel! Adaptations to the lesson can be made for all needs, just let us know how we can help upon booking.
The studio is fully wheelchair accessible, however we do not currently have a wheelchair accessible toilet – please bear this in mind.

The number of pieces will depend on which experience you booked. Between 2 and 5 of your pieces will be fired, glazed and delivered to you after your lesson. Due to the nature of the firing process, some pieces may be damaged in the kiln. If this happens, you will be sent a small complimentary product from Beacons Pottery to make up for your loss.
Your pottery will be delivered to you a maximum of 10 weeks after your lesson. This allows time for pieces to be fired, glazed, fired again and then delivered, which is a slow process. You will be notified when your products are on their way to you.
Lesson can be rescheduled a minimum of a 24 hours prior to the booked time, at no extra cost. Lessons can be rescheduled a maximum of 3 times and must be redeemed within 365 days of original booking.
