Rebecca & Kevin reviewed: Half-day pottery with Marina -for two

"Fantastic morning of pottery. This was a christmas gift from our children and was great value for money Marina was patient with us as we have never attempted any type of pottery. We highly recommend her courses and Marina as a tutor. We are now totally addicted and can't wait to book again. Our children will now be able to treasure a bowl made by us for years to come.

Paul Gilham reviewed: Pottery and decorating day for two

"We both really enjoyed our day with Marina. I bought this for my wife as she is the crafter in the household but surprised myself by how much I enjoyed this too. Marina is a great teacher - very patient and personable. She takes you through every stage - first as a demo and then you get to have a go yourself. We can’t wait to return and pick up our decorated bowls. Cannot recommend highly enough."

Melanie Coates reviewed: Pottery and decorating day for two

"I did the full day Pottery course with Marina with my sister at the weekend. We learned how to throw a couple of bowls on the wheel, to then trim them and finally to decorate - we are very excited to see finished articles which we will collect in about 4 weeks. Marina was very welcoming and patient. She showed us what to do but made sure we had a go at every stage but also that we had finished product to decorate. If you are looking for a fun day to see if this is for you I would highly recommend this course."

Marina Randall Ceramics responded:

"Thanks so much Melanie for the lovely review? it was lovely having you both too. Will keep you posted when pots are fired Best wishes Marina "

Hours passed very quickly and that's always a good indication of having a great time. We can't wait to see how our work will turn out! Thank you, Marina!"
