Matthew Evans reviewed: One day blacksmithing course in West Wales

"This was without a doubt one of if not the best experiences i have had. Aaron was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. what meant a to lot to me was that you were shown what to do and then Aaron just let you get on with it, nothing better than hands on experience. I will absolutely be doing the next course they offer. Thank you Aaron for a fantastic day."

"Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the course and we'd love to have you back."

David Marklow reviewed: 2 day blacksmithing courses

"This was a great course to do, Aaron was an amazing talented tutor explaining each stage of the smithing process. I rarely have enjoyed such a craft course as this one . Top draw training from a super talented Master blacksmith. If your unsure about doing this course put any doubts to one side, it was a fantastic two days working in the forge…I made a coat hook rack, a pair of fireside tongs and a Rams head poker absolutely chuffed.. Thank you Aaron "
