�Fantastic place, friendly staff and lovely atmosphere! Went for afternoon tea and pottery painting session and had a brilliant time! �

had a great time x lovely friendly place and relaxed xxx great range of stuff to paint xx enjoyed the afternoon tea xx

What a lovely lovely place. Booked for a friend's baby shower and it couldn't have been more perfect. Such a chilled and relaxed atmosphere, we all had a truly wonderful afternoon and will definitely be back again. Massive thanks to Hilary and Emma, an absolute joy to deal with and lovely to meet you both.

We visited from Australia. My mum took my three year old and I. We had the best time. So relaxing just sitting there painting.



Hilary is soo lovely and helpful. I painted a fairytale castle night light and my son fid a Lightening Mcqueen money box. Definitely be back when I’m visiting �.

We visited Doodle Alley for my sisters hen party on Fri 24th November and we have only one word for our experience - amazing!

Emma and Hilary were fantastic from start to finish in helping us organise something a bit different for the start of our sisters special weekend.

Nothing was too much trouble and we took our decorations and party games over the night before and it looked fab. Our sister is quite creative so she loved it but everyone who came on the night commented what a great place it was and how much fun they had.

We paid for a 'high tea' package for everyone and the food was lovely. Not normal boring sandwiches and cake, it was something a bit different and everyone again said how nice it was.

All in all I would recommend everything about this place, and I will definitely be going back very soon to do some more decorating!



Thanks again for making the start of my sisters hen weekend so perfect :)

We had a take home kit a while ago. Really enjoyed being able to paint at home with small children. The staff at doodle alley were so friendly and helpful too and the pottery turned out great!

Visited today for the second time. The new studio is fantastic! So much space and the same lovely, chilled atmosphere. We absolutely loved our morning and cannot wait to see how our pieces turn out. Thank you so much for having us and for being so friendly!

Such a fab place to spend an hour or so. You can be as creative as you like and the ladies are lovely and so welcoming�

Second visit to Doodle Alley and this time we booked afternoon tea too. The new studio is lovely, so bright, clean and cheerful looking. We had a very friendly greeting and hot drink on arrival while the lovely Emma showed us around. Neither my daughter or l are in the least artistic but Emma talked us through simple decorating ideas (although if you have an artistic bent then just go for it!) . We chose our pieces to paint and sat painting and chatting. It was very relaxing painting and we were pleased with the results. The afternoon tea was delicious. We enjoyed our very fresh sandwiches and the various yummy Bella's Bites and scones topped off by the fab Oreo truffles. All in all an afternoon tea with mates and/or family is a treat that shouldn't be missed. Definitely 5*****.

My daughter and her friends visited Doodle Ally today to celebrate her 11th Birthday Party. They had lots of fun creating foam clay models whilst eating their afternoon tea which was lovely. We couldn’t have felt more welcome what a lovely and relaxing environment thank you I’m pretty sure we will be back again in the very near future

Loved doing foot print tiles for our baby girl. The ladies from Doodle Alley were fab. Will be coming back to do more soon xx
