“I am currently attending an upholstery course with Tom Clough what an amazing and patient teacher who makes sure that every piece you take home is worthy of his well deserved reputation. If you don’t want to attend a course just take your furniture for a makeover you will not be disappointed . A true gentleman and craftsman”

“I have just finished a week upholstery course with Tom. It exceeded my expectations. I have learned so many technics and can’t wait to start another piece of furniture. Tom and Rachel were so patient and generous when sharing their years of knowledge. Thanks for introducing me to the world of upholstery.”

“This is a wonderful place to learn how to do upholstery. Tom is a wonderfully patient inspiring teacher and the students leave with an amazing standard of work. The wonderful range of courses and classes on offer are great fun and everyone is so friendly. You have the opportunity to learn both traditional and modern techniques.”

‘I’ve just completed a week long course and I can honestly say it was fantastic. Tom is patient and hugely knowledgeable as is his assistant Rachel. Together they foster an environment which is welcoming and educational with more than a few laughs along the way. An added bonus is that it’s a lovely part of the world to stay. My only problem with it is that I am now completely hooked on upholstery’

‘I don’t live locally to Knighton to I have attended some of the week-long courses that Tom offers through the year. Great opportunity to focus on learning upholstery from an excellent (and patient) teacher and getting a project done as well as meeting like-minded people.’
