Sallerton Wood

a great day learning new skills. andy is a great teacher. will definately be enrolling on other courses and telling friends about the experience. many thanks for a enjoyable day. Stewart Pearce

The course was even better than we'd hoped. Andy was incredibly knowledgeable not only about the woodworking skills and tools but also the different types of wood we used. The entire weekend was incredibly inspiring about living a bit simpler and getting back to nature. We wild camped in the woods which really enhanced our experience and the structures Andy has built - kitchen, cabin, workshop and composting toilet among other things - were simply beautiful creations. Thoroughly recommend!

Sallerton Wood was such a great experience. Andy is a friendly and patient host and teacher with a direct but laid back attitude. The Shave Horse course was a lot of fun and incredibly useful for learning a few different techniques. We camped during the course and enjoyed some great facilities and beautiful nature. Can’t wait for my next trip down!

I highly recommend Sallerton Wood as a wonderful place to learn. I attended two of Andy's courses in June 2019- "An Introduction to green Woodwork" followed by the "Make a Shave Horse" course. Throughout, I felt like I was learning from a true craftsman and someone who loves what they do. He teaches in a non-intrusive manner- he demonstrates and then allows you to try yourself, giving you the responsibility to get on with it and providing guidance when necessary. I felt like both courses were...

Brilliant place to learn basic green woodworking skills, or to move on with a more advanced course. Andy is a patient course leader with all the resources to build confidence and skills in a beautiful environment.
