Leigh and brian smith reviewed: One day blacksmithing course in West Wales

"Nice friendly relaxed atmosphere. Groups are the perfect size, not too big or too small to chat and mingle but also get the help you need. Tuition was very well explained and done in simple steps. Course was all hands on so you learn from experience. Erin’s mum makes a lovely cup of tea! Thank you for an amazing day and wonderful experience."

"Thank you for the lovely review. Will make sure to thank Bron for her tea making too. Glad you enjoyed the day."

"Have just spend a day on this course. Really enjoyed . Everything was explained. No rushing and plenty of help if needed. Made key or cup holder and a fire rake. I would definitely recommend giving this a go."

kath reviewed: One day blacksmithing course in West Wales

"I had an absolutely brilliant time on this course. Never done any craft courses or blacksmithing before. It was great to meet other people, chat about all sorts and learn how to make things with hot metal. Aaron makes it look easy but explains everything really well, provides help where needed and lets you get on with things if you don’t. We all made some great hooks and fire tools. I am absolutely chuffed to bits with my toasting fork which will be a lasting memory of both the course and my 50th birthday present from some great friends. 100% recommend this!! "

"Delighted to read your lovely review, thank you. Happy 50th too 😁"
