Take some time out to unwind and enjoy painting pottery at Capesthorne Hall with Claire Millen from Periwinkle and Clay.

Your experience will start at 12pm, when you'll choose a piece from a selection of functional pottery such as mugs, plates and bowls. You'll have two hours to leisurely paint your piece and once completed, Claire will take your item to be glazed and fired at her studio at the Old Smithy on the Capesthorne Estate.

Additional items to paint can be purchased and paid for on the day.

Pottery painting is a lovely, relaxing way to spend a couple of hours with family and friends.

Your piece will be ready to collect from Periwinkle and Clay at the Old Smithy two weeks later. Full details will be given at the end of the event.

The Lakeside Café will be open from midday until 4:00pm should you wish to purchase refreshments during painting or lunch afterwards.

Your ticket price also includes free entry to the grounds, gardens and woodland walk which are open from midday to 5:00pm.

You can include a visit to the Hall (open 12:30pm to 3:30pm (last entry 3:00pm)) for an small additional charge of £4.00, payable at the Hall Entrance.

Parking charge – £2.00 per vehicle.
