What visitors say
Always such a memorable experience. The pottery studio is so calm, it’s like balm for the soul. They serve the best dirty chai for miles around. We usually come for a quiet chat and paint something adorable. We also bring the children and they love to see the results of their painting efforts when they are all fired and shiny. I heard they’re opening a bakery on site too!

Absolutely fantastic we took our grandchildren, the staff were friendly and welcoming we all took part in the painting and can wait to see the final results. Food in the cafe was really good and made with quality produce. We will be back soon 😊😊😊😊

I booked a 2-hour sculpting session for 3 for my daughter's 16th birthday and we had a brilliant time. We started at the cafe which has a lovely feel, great food selection and lots of space. We moved into the pottery room and were tutored by the lovely Susan. She somehow helped us to hand build some clay models that we were really proud of and we had a great time whilst we were there. Best of all... We can come back and paint them in a few weeks! We would highly recommend the whole experience.

What an amazing place! My daughter wanted us to go to do something together to clebrate her 18th birthday. My husband and I and my daughter and her friend started off by painting some pre-made pottery which we chose from a wide selection we could choose from. We lost ourselves for a couple of hours which was truely lovely. Then we had a lovey afternoon cream tea with amazing sandwiches, cakes served on towering tea plates with a drink of our choice. It all looked and tasted totally amazing from the cafe. We then returned to the pottery area to make a seahorse session. We all loved it and we're looking forwrd to returning in a few weeks to paint our seahorses! Thank you for such a lovely afternoon. The staff were all lovely and accomodating which really made it a special day for not just my daughter but all of us. To finish it off there's a lovely shop with quality things that I could browse for hours in. There was a great selection of cards and I went away with a supply for my nearest and dearest who's clebrtions are throughout the year. Thank you China Blue, a truely memorable day for my daughters 18th celebration!
