It was great, we were made to feel welcome, and had plenty of freedom, and generous amounts of supplies to work with for our pottery painting. Prices for the actual seats/session are really good,... See more

I found Indian block printing fun and relaxing. The cleverly designed blocks and their history are fascinating. This is something for people of any age to have a go at. There's no need for anyone to... See more

10/10

The staff are so welcoming and friendly. They go over everything with you. There is a wide choice of pottery to paint and so many colours, sponges, stencils. There is a lovely relaxed atmosphere. The staff regularly check you’re okay and ask if you need anything. We went with children and they were so kind to them, offering help and advice and giving them little art packs to take home.
Would absolutely recommend this lovely place.

Another lovely experience at…

This was another lovely experience at Space2make. This time we went as a family with our two teenagers and we all thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing few hours painting pottery. We all look forward to returning again. It's a wonderful experience and having the keepsake of your very own creation afterwards is the icing on the cake. 😊

Amazing service

Amazing service, they tell you absolutely everything you need to know. They are very attentive and don’t rush you which is really nice. They have lots to choose from and also give you complimentary cake and drinks.

Shirley and Craig are brilliant

Shirley and Craig are brilliant. So welcoming and friendly they make you feel at ease no matter your skill level. There is so much choice I cant help but keep going back for more. They have everything you could possibly need plus more to help you create your creative masterpiece. Honestly the only issue I have is that I cant stay there all the time and live my creative hermit dreams and unfortunately still have to adult in the real world.

We had a wonderful time celebrating my mum's birthday, combining family and fun making memories and gifts for family members! Shirley went out of her way to make it extra special and the cakes were delicious!! We are planning on doing this again.

Amazing neurodivergent friendly, well-resourced Pottery Painting business

Helpful, knowledgeable staff; a huge array of different resources available to use on your pottery and the largest range of paint colours we've ever seen. As a neurodivergent family, we particularly appreciated the calm atmosphere - relaxing background music, not overly noisy or busy (the benefits of being a smaller venue) and no pressure from the staff. They were on hand if needed, but equally gave us space to take our time with making choices and completing the painting etc.

It would be a joy to see you all back for another gentle, colourful session soon 💛

If you love crafting, then this place is for you

I love this place. I now go to two of the workshops. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. If there is something you think you might fancy doing then book your place. I also have to add that the cakes at breaktime are amazing and you get to choose which cake you want too.

I wish I would have known about this…

I wish I would have known about this treasure of a place years ago! I intend to book to go pottery painting again before Christmas ( planning to invite a friend)
I’ve been twice since August 2025, with my two daughters, and we really had the best time! The owner Shirley, is a lovely lady, who along with her husband Craig, goes above and beyond to make it a 5* experience for you.. highly recommended X
