Special and unique experience

Simon_H, Jul 2025
This was a special and unique experience. We were warmly welcomed and introduced to the amazing properties of bamboo. After we had the opportunity to admire the many bamboo creations we were invited to choose what we would like to make from an extremely large range of samples. We were helpfully guided through the process, shown how to use the different machines and given support when we needed it. The team were warm and friendly and enhanced our bamboo creations to ensure that they looked good. There was water available and the activity took place under cover with multiple fans to keep us cool. This was a very special experience that we highly recommend.

Impressive art but crowded workshop

Rachel_D, Mar 2025
The bamboo team are clearly passionate about their work. We were excited to pick an item to make each and got going. Sadly, we found the workshop got too busy for the amount of machines available and team members to help. One of us was stood about for long periods of time confused on next steps. My partner had someone help her closely, however wasn’t able to create much of the piece herself as the team member wanted it to look perfect. For us, a better balance between independence and support would make this experience “wow”. I wouldn’t let this stop you from booking, just something to be mindful of to set expecations
