"Brilliant course. Jessica, the course leader, was first rate - knew her subject, and was always unruffled whatever we threw at her. A great introduction / experience."

"Absolutely fantastic day making a bottle opener with Jessica and Tim. I got to do all of the process myself so it is a real sense of achievement. Each step of the process was demonstrated in small chunks before going away to apply it and they were both on hand to help and to correct my technique if I was going wrong. Looking after our own forge fire for the day made it a complete "day in the life" experience. Peak Blacksmithing is a really lovely environment to have a go at a new skill and something I thoroughly recommend. "

"Absolutely brilliant day with two knowledgeable, friendly and engaging instructors. I learned so much and it really sparked my interest in doing more blacksmithing in future. Seven students was the perfect group size for plenty of one on one assistance, but a lively, buzzing atmosphere. A good lunch was included where we sat around a big table and got to know each other better. Overall, a lovely experience that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Thanks so much Jessica and Tim!"

"My husband and I recently did this workshop and all I can say is WOW! We had such a great day, Jess and Tim were fantastic! Super supportive, really knowledgeable and so encouraging! I’ll be honest this was the first time I’ve lifted a hammer, and to be fair ached the next day! But as a female I was super proud of myself! We both had the best day and came away with a bottle opener that we were both so proud of! Thank you both so much 100% recommend! Becky and Gary! #getithot"

"I bought this as a gift for my partner. He had a great day. The level of teaching was very good and the team were very supportive. It is a beautiful setting and the food was amazing. He wants to come to do the 5 day course if you're getting it set up. "

"My husband did this course on 20/04/24 and thoroughly enjoyed it. He says it was hard work and very intensive but very enjoyable and worthwhile. He made a beautiful decorative poker of which he is very proud, and rightly so. He says the 2 people running the course were extremely knowledgeable and helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. Five stars all round!"

Mathew Frost reviewed: Peak Blacksmithing Experience days

"The blacksmithing experience was thoroughly enjoyed by the 4 of us, a day we'll never forget. Tim and Jessica were great, very thorough explanations and demonstrations of what to do. They're both incredibly friendly and extremely knowledgeable. We were kept well supplied with hot and cold drinks throughout the day, food was catered for by a little food place in the next village and was really good, especially the cakes. By the end of the day we'd all produced a fancy fire poker using many different blacksmithing techniques. Left at the end of the day wanting to do more! Would recommend this to anyone! 5 Star!"

Peak Blacksmithing Experience responded:

"Thank you so much for your review! We are very glad you enjoyed the day as much as we do. We hope to see you again! Kind Regards, Jessica"

"Had a fantastic day at Peak Blacksmithing learning a variety of blacksmithing techniques. The instructors were super friendly and, with the small group size, they were always on-hand to give guidance and encouragement. I think that everyone would get something from this experience - even those that don't consider themselves at all 'handy'."

"We had a really great day at Peak Blacksmithing, Jess and Tim were great, and came away with a poker that I'm really happy with (even though I burnt my scroll off, boo. Remember to watch your steel!) Highly recommended, looking forward to doing the knife making course at any point too."

"Booked for a birthday treat. Loved how friendly and supportive the environment was. We were all total beginners but Tim made it all look easy and was an excellent tutor. Plenty of food and drink. We all left with a handmade poker to demonstrate our new skills!"

Elaine and Charlie reviewed: Peak Blacksmithing Experience days

"The snow melted enough for the course to go ahead and we had a great day. Tim was a very informative instructor and demonstrated all the stages clearly and logically from fire lighting and management to all the blacksmithing techniques needed to make our fabulous pokers. Jess was very supportive and offered sound additional blacksmithing advise along the way and was a very hospitable host. We were supplied with tea, coffee, pork pie, lunch and cakes. Perfect. We definitely recommend this day. Thank you. "

"Hi Elaine and Charlie, Thank you so much for the fabulous review, it's much appreciated! We are glad you both enjoyed the day. We hope to see you again on another course coming later this year. Take care Jessica and Tim "
