At The Glass Hub we provide extensive glass-working facilities alongside the support of an excellent, qualified and experienced team of tutors to foster individual creative growth and expertise. The beautiful medieval Stowford Manor Farm in Wiltshire hosts the Hub whose workshops form part of a complex of farm buildings that include a spacious 17th century barn. The farm has on-site B&B, camping,

delicious cream teas and sits in a picturesque river valley a few miles from the Roman city of Bath. Whether a beginner, refresher or expert, we hope all of our students will be inspired to design and make with confidence in a creative, supportive and relaxed environment.
