"So pleased to have been part of a team, which had an age range in excess of 50 years, that rebuilt a dry stone wall from its crumbling state to something we could all be proud of in just 2 days. Thank you to Carl, Sian and Sharon for keeping us on task, sharing your skills and knowledge and catering so well for us all. I would thoroughly recommend this course- such a positive and enjoyable experience. "

"Thanks to the team for making it a memorable weekend. Extremely well organised, good pace, great food, perfect weather, meeting people from all walks of life, working together, problem solving and a pint at the end. What’s not to like! Plus you learn a fantastic skill through practical application, to produce an end result that will last for years. Certainly makes you appreciate the work that goes into building all those walls you see in the countryside. If you are thinking about doing it, just go for it."

"This is memorable, useful and enjoyable experience. Carl is a natural imparting his experience and skill to the group. In addition to learning to build a dry stone wall I would recommend this Course to anyone considering a Team Building event. If a group of strangers can leave feeling a sense of achievement, connection and support for each other, imagine what it could do for your team. Five stars all round for the Tuition and the food. Thank you "

"This course was very engaging, the group was great fun and the instructors kept an excellent balance between showing us skills and letting us learn them ourselves, hands on. The setting in Diggle was ideal and we were all proud to leave ‘our’ wall on the farm. Excellent catering by Sharon, who took great care of us all. Highly recommend it. "

"A remarkable experience. You have the opportunity, not only to learn how to build a dry stone wall safely and to a high standard, but also to make an important contribution to our heritage. The wall that you build is a legacy. Added to which, the experience is invigorating and great fun! Sharing this experience with a group of folk from all walks of life only adds further to the enjoyment. Well done, Carl and team!"

"What a super weekend of fun learning, with a lovely group of like minded people. Food was great and the achievement to complete a section of dry stone wall that would remain built for decades was thoroughly rewarding and enjoyable. Carl and his happy team were a delight! Nothing to dislike, as even the weather was great!"

"We had a fantastic time on the beginner's dry stone walling course. There were people from all different walks of life and ages on the course and we worked very well together as a team. We were all very proud of our wall and learned a lot from Carl and Tom. Sharon's lunches were delicious and there were plenty of snacks available during the breaks. It was also very satisfying to see the sheep taking shelter from the rain behind our wall a few hours after we completed it."

"A wonderful course that was good for the soul. The experts were helpful, informative and fun, and all but left us to it, which made it feel all the more like ‘our wall’. My co-attendees were a great bunch, with no antagonism despite there being 20 of us. Everyone just got on, which I think might be a first in a group of that size. Everyone did their bit and contributed to what we all thought was an awesome piece of wall. This is a stand out experience in my life. Also special mention to Sharon and the lovely homemade soup each lunchtime. "

"A really fabulous experience! - Fulfilling and very worthwhile activity, under excellent instruction and guidance, in a beautiful rural setting and with great company. Whats not to love? Carl and Ed, our instructors for the two days were brilliant - full of knowledge and expertise and able to direct and support participants of all abilities, and Sharon who looks after everyone and organises everything is an excellent host.

"For anyone considering this course for a fun day out, a gift for a family member or friend or if you're considering dry stone walling as a potential career then this is perfect for you! I met the most amazing people during my experience and had such a laugh whilst learning the craft in a relaxed and beautiful setting. The whole two days was at just the right pace to take in the different stages of walling with plenty of tea breaks and I must add the food was absolutely stunning! All this wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for Sharon, Carl and Ed who were extremely welcoming and eager to pass on their own knowledge. Thank you and I really do hope to see you all again soon at a DSWA Derbyshire branch practice weekend. "

"Cannot recommend this course highly enough. Carl is a very personable tutor who made everyone relax. Sharon provided a most excellent lunch and was very friendly. It was interesting to see how people worked together and we were all very proud of the wall we built, which Carl assured us will still be there in a 100 years. It is an excellent team-building opportunity or simply a chance to do something different, and learn a new skill. The countryside around Diggle is beautiful and the weather was kind. Will recommend to friends and family."

"I completed this course with a group of colleagues and I cannot recommend highly enough. The farm in Diggle has the most breathtaking views, simply stunning. Carl kept us all laughing and having fun from start to finish and Sharon's lunch of delicious local cheese, homemade soup and pork pie was perfection. We all felt immensely proud of our wall and our little contribution to England. A truly worthwhile experience."
