Nestling in the beautiful Somerset countryside, the home of Poppy Green’s is the perfect place to relax and enjoy some leisure time, whilst learning an abundance of new skills and obtaining some great ideas and tips along the way.
Our courses are designed to be fun and informal, whilst also being creative and productive. Our warm welcome is extended to you, and we always start the day with tea or coffee and home-made biscuits.
After your course, why not stay a while and enjoy a cream tea in the orchard? Warm, freshly baked scones, the finest strawberry preserve and local clotted cream, all served on the very best vintage china of course! Light lunches are also available.
