How have you adapted your classes for COVID-19?
For a full breakdown of all the extensive measures we've implemented to stay Covid Secure, head to our latest blog post - found in the footer of our main website. A few minor points to mention for our regular guests who perhaps visited us pre-covid and are wondering what's changed: - Our usual shareable bottles of Prosecco have been swapped for individual cocktails (and mocktails) served in cans - this is to limit hand-to-hand (and bottle-to-glass) contact for now. Biodegradable cups are available. The cocktails are delicious, we love them, but we'll get back to bubbles as soon as we can! -Our gorgeous cotton artist's kimonos have been temporarily swapped to biodegradable gowns. They're not quite as pretty but they get the job done, and they're kind to the planet too.

The bouquet making and watercolour painting class was so much fun and honestly was such a great wind down activity on a weekend as a break from a very intense corporate job. Both instructors were fabulous and I definitely intend to come for more classes in the future! Also really loved that I got to keep my watercolour kit, I’ve been adding a few leaves and petals to my painting whenever I can :)
