Gill reviewed: Yorkshire Rose stone carving class

"Absolutely fantastic- I am a total beginner, I managed to turn out a lovely Yorkshire Rose - super chuffed. Helen has the patience of a saint, humour, encouragement and great biscuits ! Thanks for a great day "

Ian reviewed: Green Man stone carving in Yorkshire

"Helen is great at teaching, knowing just when to add personal hints to give the most from the course. We were amazed how much progress could be achieved in 2 days and the results fabulous. Location is capable of holding all of us with ease. Tea, coffee and biscuits were appreciated. Safe working environment, perfect for beginners. Remember, the stone is heavy when you go to carry it home. Hidden gem. "

Rob Smith reviewed: Yorkshire Rose stone carving class

"Really enjoyed the Yorkshire Rose stone carving course. From the first few nervous chippings with the chisel and hammer to the final lovely result. Helen is a great teacher with patience and humour……plus supplying tea, coffee and biscuits. Highly recommended 👍"
