"My daughter bought this as a birthday present, I had no idea what we would be doing but Wendy soon put us at ease. I am not the most creative person but with help and ideas from Wendy I now have an amazing lantern. A most enjoyable experience."

"My teenage daughter and I visited the curved glass fusion workshop during the Easter half term. Wendy’s workshop is situated in a perfectly idyllic location in a lovely bright studio space. All was very welcoming, she made us a nice brew and introduced us to the craft of glass fusion. Wendy guided us throughout the process, very informative patient and was generous with her time. We had such a lovely relaxed experience and really looking forward to receiving our glass works once they’ve been kiln fired. A highly recommend creative experience! "

"An absolutely wonderful experience. This was bought by myself as a Christmas gift experience for my hubbie. We both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Wendy was super helpful, without being intrusive, and guided us gently to a full exploration of our artistic skills. We are both really looking forward to receiving our fired glass & lantern. We would both highly recommend this experience."

Suzi Scott reviewed: Fused Glass workshops at Bere Alston, near Tavistock, Devon

"My husband, mother in law and I did this full day course today and what a joy it was. The time flew by, as Wendy patiently explained the fine art of glass cutting, fusing and designing to us total beginners. We had plenty of opportunity to practice what had been shown to us and Wendy gave tutelage one on one as needed. Our confidence grew as we saw our creations come to life and within such a tranquil setting it was not difficult to be creative. The location, on the banks of the river Tamar are idyllic and on a Spring / Summer and Autumn day will be superb. As it was, today was bitterly cold but the sun was shining and the skies were blue so didn't spoil the day at all. Wrapped up warm with plenty of hot coffee and biscuits and Jack Frost was soon banished. We would totally recommend Wendy's courses and her expert teaching and can't wait to see the final results after the kilning of our pieces."

"I bought this experience for my Mum as a birthday present and we had an absolutely fabulous time! Wendy is brilliant, really lovely and very very very patient!!!! My Mum and I both learnt a new skill and Wendy unleashed our inner creativity, with lots of suggestions, guidance, advice and tea! It's an absolutely amazing location with inspiring views and inspiring pieces of glass around you. I TOTALLY recommend it - it was an inspired gift idea and we plan to return.... Christmas is coming everyone! This gift is a winner!!! Thank you Wendy! xxx "
