Great for Couples - It was perfect because my partner has a very short attention span and the activity lasts just about the right time (just over an hour). Jules was lovely and down to earth.

Excellent experience, very therapeutic. - We booked our experience via TripAdvisor for a slot only an hour later, and arrived to be greeted warmly by the owner. She settled us in, and offered us on the particular occasion different size vases. It was such a lovely little shop, and the experience lasted 25-30 minutes as my friend and I made our terrariums. We had a lot of choice of flowers and helpful advice to getting started. I also ended up buying a Monstera and a fabulous sweater which is to die for. Very happy. Additionally, I hadn’t realized how soothing the experience would be, and definitely gave my mind a peaceful rest.

Lovely activity for all ages. - I took my two grandsons for a lovely activity at the Cotswald Plant House in the Stable Yard in Cirencester. We were met by a very helpful young lady who explained very well how to make a terrarium. We made one each and the boys thoroughly enjoyed it. We have them at home now and are delighted with them.

A perfect plant project! - What a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The ambience of the shop was tranquil and beautiful. We learned what the different layers of the terrarium do and we were set free to arrange our terrarium in the way we wanted. What a gorgeous little place and to have your creation to take home acts as a perfect reminder of a lovely day out with friends.

Loved the experience, more intimate than usual workshops! - Absolutely loved this experience. The plant house is so beautiful and cosy, full of amazing plants and decorations! Jules was incredible, she guided us and explained the process - it was so cool learning how they work! She gave us space and time to build it but also checked in with us in case we needed help - it was the perfect balance! I think there's a max space for 3 people so it was just me and my partner hence, it felt like a more intimate than the bigger workshops. So, I really really enjoyed it! The location, itself, is also so good because we found great places to eat after!
