Sarah reviewed: Yorkshire Rose stone carving class

"I had a really fantastic day - never done anything like it. I wasn't very confident about it but Helen was a very good teacher and really patient and supportive throughout. It is a great place and everyone was so friendly. I'm really pleased with what I managed to create and would thoroughly recommend this course. "

The West Riding Stonecarving Association responded:

"Thanks for the great review Sarah . I'm glad you had a good day here. Helen"

David Pye reviewed: Green Man stone carving in Yorkshire

"Helen presents a brilliant experience - all tools/materials/advice freely given in an old mill workroom. Everyone carved slightly different 'Green Men' from Maltese Limestone, each to his/her own interpretation of the pattern supplied, Lovely stone to work; firm and smooth. Everyone went home with a fine result. Highly recommended for friendliness, good instruction and value for money. Brilliant course."

The West Riding Stonecarving Association responded:

"Thank you David . I am pleased that you enjoyed the weekend and appreciate the time taken to write a review. I hope your Green man settles in well in your lovely garden. Kindest regards Helen"

Pete Kelson reviewed: Yorkshire Rose stone carving class

"This is a fantastic course and I highly recommend it. Helen welcomed us warmly and taught us throughout the day superbly and with good humour. We all came away very impressed. I can add this, if I lived in the environs of Halifax, I would definitely be joining this place; it has all the facilities that you could want. "
