Josh reviewed: Premium experience package dry stone walling for beginners

"I completed a weekend beginners dry stone walling course with Carl, Sharon and a lovely group in October 2024. Everything about the weekend went above and beyond my expectations. It was clearly very throughly well thought out, Carl and Sharon had such a friendly and also professional approach. Plenty of cups of tea and snacks as well as a hearty lunch kept us going all day! I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn the craft! "

"If you enjoy the outdoors, getting your hands dirty and feeling the warm glow of satisfaction at the end of the day you get from having built something beautiful, do this course. Carl's instruction is first-rate - calm, patient, with plenty of good humour, he leads you through the process, engages everyone and builds a good team spirit where everyone feels they are contributing. You'll come away from the weekend thinking "I could fix that (almost)" every time you see a broken-down wall. Great experience, great mix of people from rank first-timers (me) to professional builders learning new skills - all ages, all levels of ability. I'm trying really hard to think of some recommendations to improve this course, but I can't think of any. "

Mireille Truong reviewed: Premium experience package dry stone walling for beginners

"A very inspiring course in which a team of beginners rebuilds from its foundations a section of wall fallen into disrepair. Carl explains clearly the principles of the wall's longevity, strength and beauty. Theory is always backed up by practice. Attention is paid to safety in handling heavy stones and great tips provided to move them. The days have pauses and Sharon provides tasty and healthy sustenance and friendliness and magic to the environment. Highly recommended! Lots of fun!"

"This was a really enjoyable course. The weekend was well-structured and well run. I learnt a lot and it felt really good to be learning about dry stone walling whilst helping to re-build an actual wall on a working farm. There was a good atmosphere throughout the weekend, it was friendly and relaxed, also the location is beautiful. Overall it was a great weekend and I came away feeling very upbeat and refreshed. "
