Ordered this for a friend and the option of choosing the date at a later time is great option. Straight-forward to do order and the instructions sent after ordering are nice and simple as well as a way to gift the experience without showing the price of it.
This was a birthday present from my wife and I has the best day. It was a great introduction to the many and varied blacksmithing techniques and Matt was a patient and informative teacher. I had the choice to make what I wanted and opted for the items that allowed me to try the greater range of techniques.
Enjoyed it so much that I'm planning on booking another day in a few months time when Matt moves to his new premises. Thank you so much again.
I highly recommend Heakley Hall Forge if you want to have a go at blacksmithing. Having wanted to try it for a long time, finding somewhere that gave one to one tuition really sold it for me. Matt is a great tutor, very patient, and will personalise the experience if there's something specific you want to try. There's a good chance I'll be booking again! Thank you.
Had the very best day...15.03.2024, my other half brought a Blacksmith experience day...Matt your guidance, support and patience was fabulous. I made a beautiful flower and hook. Would highly recommend this experience to anyone 10/10. Definitely want to come back very soon. Thank you again
