Upcoming Meet Ups & Workshops
Enjoy the rhythm of making
The focus is not on perfection or productivity, but on the process, using our hands to express, explore, and gently learn in a supportive and relaxed setting.
A space for creation
The Makery is a little dream that has come to life here at Great Ashley House. When my husband and I moved here with our young daughter almost two years ago, I imagined creating a warm, welcoming space where people could come together. Whether that is through workshops, cosy evening meet ups, or a warm cup of tea, yarn and good company, it's about connection.
Slow down, breathe and join me.
A wellbeing journey
The Makery is also the home for your wellbeing journey. The chance for you to reflect, explore and discover new opportunities to improve how your every day feels. Surrounded by Wiltshire countryside, this homely setting is your safe space and I invite you to embrace it with both hands.
