EXCELLENT Based on 71 reviews Posted on Sophie Spall23/02/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Adam made sure it was such a lovely experience. He was very knowledgable and I learnt some new things! Great activity to do with friends or family for a birthday/hen do. There was a great variety of scents to choose from so there is a scent for everyone. We came away with a candle and wax melts each. A lovely touch was that we were able to customise our labels which I think was a lovely touch! Would highly recommend everyone to book on. Thank you Adam!👏🏼Posted on Diane Pearson21/02/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend.

From start to finish, everything was thoughtfully organized, fun, and super relaxing. Adam was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy to follow, even for beginners. There was a great variety of scents to choose from, and making both candles and wax melts felt hands-on and personal. We left with beautiful, great-smelling products, that we’re excited to use. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, we learned a lot, and laughed a lot too. Highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking for a unique and enjoyable experience!Posted on Lynn Kemp01/02/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked for 6 of us & I didn't tell the others what I'd booked so it would be a lovely surprise for them & we all loved it, if you want something special to do with a few friends I can't recommend it high enough.Posted on Matt Foster31/01/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
