"The instructors were perfect, informal but knowledgeable & approachable. Loved everything provided - nice surprise! The lunch was delicious & great to chat to fellow terrarium makers & particularly the instructors. I loved it!" - Ann
"I loved my day at The Newt and was delighted to leave with my fabulous terrarium. I was particularly impressed with the knowledge and enthusiasm of the tutors and the generous provision of the glass, the tools, the components and the breakfast and delicious lunch and drinks! In all, it was remarkable value and I would certainly recommend it to my friends (have done, already!). The opportunity for a short exploration of the gardens later only made me want to come back for more, and I am determined to take up membership and to make it a regular day out for me and any guests who visit me." - Fran
