Manor Wood is an ancient woodland near Grafham, Cambridgeshire. We offer hands on courses and education sessions. We create a setting for all ages to connect with the natural world while managing the woodland for wildlife. Come and join us for a day playing in the woods.
"Wood spoon carving was a fabulous experience. Matt is an excellent teacher, showing patience and knowledge. We had a wonderful day, the course was brilliant and being within nature was perfect.
I totally recommend this course and can guarantee, we will be back. "
"Spent a great day with Mat on the Carving Bench course.
The set up in the wood is very impressive with a large covered area in case of rain and a large array of tools.
Mat is an excellent instructor. He explains everything in basic terms, then expands on the instruction to explain how the skills can be used for other projects. Also gives plenty of advice on tools and techniques for greenwood working in general.
Having done a couple of greenwood courses this was up there with the best.
Couldn't recommend Mat as an instructor highly enough.
Thanks for a great day. "
"Booked this as a Father’s Day gift and we both loved it - great family experience or something to do for any nature lover. The area was a great set up, with a fire heating up the hot water for tea/coffee, biscuits supplied and a toilet on site. Matt was patient but also allowed us to give things a go. Would have loved to stay for longer. Highly recommend! "

"A peaceful and amazing location & environment. The shelters & facilities (including toilet block!) hand built with local wood. A beautiful course, expertly guided by Matt, who gave plenty of space to try things ourselves and learn at one's own pace and choice of subject."
