Came here for my friend’s birthday and had such a fun time! Rachel was so lovely and gave really clear instructions throughout the class. I absolutely loved the Highland cow I made!

Lauren Norton

Had such a fun experience at Tanglewood Studio creating miniature highland cows! Rachel is an amazing host, who makes anyone feel like they can get creative! Not only a wholesome experience but you get a lovely miniature out of it- I have my mini cow sat on my coffee table. Highly recommend!

We did the highland cow workshop with Rachel and she was amazing! Could not recommend more- she was fun, knowledgable and patient! 
Such a great idea to do with friends or family.

Had a fabulous day!! We started by making a spring wreath, I've always wanted to do this but never gotten around to it. Its now hanging on my front door and looks gorgeous 

Then we had a yummy afternoon tea lunch, the cakes were particularly tasty!

And finally we had an afternoon chilling in the heated pool, sauna and jacuzzi! So nice to have something like that all to yourselves as it's in the garden of the tanglewood studio. 

Keeping my eye out for another craft spa day soon :)

Thanks Rachel for being a brilliant crafting teacher and spa host!

Lovely experience at Tanglewood! Rachel was an amazing host, super friendly and provided us with everything we needed. The property is lovely and relaxing, especially the heated pool and the sauna!

I spent a wonderful day at Tanglewood Studio. The craft spa experience I booked was Powertex Highland Cow. On arrival I was met by the wonderful host Rachel, who explained all about the day’s activities. In the morning session we crafted a miniature version of a Highland Cow using Powertex. A medium that I had not used before, her explanation was very helpful. Then lunch  was then provided, which was excellent . The afternoon session was spent in the spa, was very relaxing. I highly recommend these craft and spa experiences day. I am looking forward to my next one.
