Gill reviewed: Heelan Coo Sculpture Carving

"What a fabulous day! Tom was knowledgeable and helpful in a lovely woodland setting. The weather was clement and the fire was great to sit around for breaks and to natter. The carving was great but definitely hard work using the axe. Tom was so encouraging and we had a great day. The toilets are quite far from the workshop so don't leave it till the last minute and the signage could do with a wee bit of a refresh, especially for those of us with dodgy eyesight, but all round a great experience we would highly recommend."

Wooden Tom responded:

"Thanks for the wonderful review and to meet you Gill Tom"
