Customer Feedback
Since 2005, when the workshop moved from Clissett Wood to Brookhouse Wood, we have handed out feedback forms for customers to fill in and return after their courses, about 60% of which are returned. We value these replies and use them to help us plan future developments.
The feedback form consists of three sections:
- An appraisal of the various facilities;
- Four questions about customer satisfaction;
- A space for other comments.

I enjoyed the course and was overjoyed with the end results, and would recommend the course to everyone. Thanks Mike. John M
I loved the way you are able to laugh about yourself and your non-authoritarian style of teaching. Ralf B
Wonderful setting, good atmosphere - loved the simple way of life on the course - great set up. Emily S
Mike’s even tempered, positive attitude of turning even our silliest mistakes into ‘learning opportunities’ really made the whole course a positive, upbeat experience. This was so much more than a chair making course. This was a truly uplifting experience which we will never forget. Jinny and Holly C
I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Packed with fun and instruction. Charles R
Once more, a real pleasure Mike! The chair is proudly sat on each mealtime. Rayner G
We both had a fantastic week and both said on our journey home, that we hadn’t enjoyed anything so much for a long time. Brilliant. Kathy and Sam C.
Overall, I can honestly say that I spent an amazing time on the course in very good company. I learned and achieved a great deal and feel very pleased with the products and knowledge I have brought home. Lee S
I liked the system of taking it in turns to cook, and found it surprisingly easy to live without electricity. That was the bit I was most daunted by but I didn’t miss it once. Thank you for a great experience. Tamsin F
Thank you all very much. It has been a life changing experience. Allan C
A thoroughly enjoyable time, very satisfying and a great sense of achievement. Mike R
An excellent course that I would readily recommend to others and I intend to return next year. Harry C
I enjoyed greatly baking bread in the oven - a highlight of my course. Simon M
An unmissable experience - much more pleasurable than any exotic holiday. I never felt as if I was being a nuisance by asking a question at any time. Carol J
The relaxed teaching and living in the wood complemented one another perfectly. Jack N
