We have just returned home from a fantastic weekend copper foiled stained glass course. Mattt is a wonderful teacher and host - she is clear and thorough in her explanations and demonstrations and we felt both encouraged and supported throughout the weekend. We thoroughly recommend this course to anyone looking to give stained glass a go and hope to be able to return ourselves in the future.

I have just finished a 6 week stained glass course here and honestly I have had a great time. Firstly, Mattt is amazing, her knowledge is excellent and I love the way she teaches. The studio is well set up, with Mattt always having what you need on hand. Can't actually believe I went from never having done anything like this to creating my first panel in 6 weeks. Once I have my main panel design and my glass selected I will be signing up again. Can't wait to go back.

I went for a weekend of copper foiling and stained glass making with my husband, Malcolm. (jan 24). We had a great time making our pieces. We didn't realise it was as complicated a process as it was but the process was explained in a simple and clear manner and much help was at hand by Mattt who facilitated the course. She also looked after us very well providing two hot lunches - leek and potato soup with home made bread and jacket potato's with salad and fillings... delicious! I would recommend this course to anyone. Thanks for a wonderful experience Mattt.

Mattt has a wealth of experience and passes her knowledge on with clarity and patience. On top of that, the classes are fun as she makes everyone feel relaxed and enjoy the sessions. If you want a well equipped studio then this has it all. As a first timer at trying to work with glass, my end result gave me a sense of achievement and joy ! Thank you Mattt.

My sister and I have just had the most lovely weekend, with Mattt. Glass fusing for 2 days, made lots of lovely creations. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, scrummy lunch. Very helpful tuition. Would highly recommend and we will return.

I really enjoyed taking a 2 day leaded stained glass course with Mattt last week. She gave her time generously, provided delicious lunches and guided us through each stage of the process. I am very pleased with my 10 piece "light catcher" and now have a much better appreciation of large stained glass windows in historic buildings and churches.

We completed a 2 day course in stained glass work. It was so interesting, Quite hard, technical and detailed but Mattt taught us a lot and we all left with finished glass work we were all proud of. Many thanks Mattt for an excellent 2 days.

I attended a glasswork course here. Mattt was an excellent host, I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely like to learn more. I would highly recommend the glass fusing course.

I had a brilliant weekend making a leaded glass panel. Mattt is a very good tutor and cook. Thank you for your guidance and timely advice. I look forward to my next visit to do another panel.

Attended the 2 day Leaded Stained Glass course here a couple of weeks back and enjoyed every minute. A great learning environment, professional tools and equipment together with an skilled teacher in Mattt. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of taking up this beautiful craft 😊
