The Coppice Co. reviews

Pauline W reviewed: Willow Trug Workshop

"This was such an enjoyable course. The setting, in the middle of a wood away from the sounds of civilization, was so peaceful. Suz was very patient and demonstrated each stage of the process so that we could follow. I made a basket, not at all perfect, but a very passable basket in the end. I would recommend this course to anyone looking for something a bit different. "

The Coppice Co. responded:

"Thank you for your lovely review Pauline! It was great to have you along and you made a great basket!"

Catherine overton reviewed: Round Shopper Willow Basket Course

"Absolutely amazing day, a gift to my friend Ann for her 60th birthday and we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience, from learning about the community and all they do to making the most wonderful basket that I will treasure. Suz was an amazing tutor with the patients of a saint on an extremely hot day! A lovely calm lady who took the time to explain everything so well. Well worth travelling down from Lincolnshire for many happy memories made, thank you Suz"

Mal Graham reviewed: Round Shopper Willow Basket Course

"Well demonstrated and explained. Suze was a quiet and calm tutor with a lot of skills and knowledge around willow work. The venue was in woodland and had an excellent ambience, with the wood fired kettle adding an air of authenticity. I will be doing more Willow work later. Mal"

Joan Chan reviewed: Willow Sunflower Woodland Course

"Took my 2 granddaughters to make a willow sunflower, not the easiest to make but there was plenty of help, the class was really good value as the kids were free while me and my husband made a willow sunflower too. The surroundings in themselves are an experience we heard kites in the woods, saw a young deer and the girls enjoyed being shown how to make a campfire and toast their marshmallows on it, definitely give this experience a try you won’t be disappointed ?"

The Coppice Co. responded:

"Thank you Joan! It was lovely to have you along and introduce you all to a new skill!"

Robert Turner reviewed: Willow Trug Course

"I really enjoyed it - Suz is an excellent tutor, explains things clearly and simply, and quick to help when I went astray. The venue is great - in the woods, amongst some magnificent trees, accompanied by tweeting birds. I learned a lot, and since Ive been looking at baskets in a very different light."
