Angels Farm House - Lyndhurst

My daughter and I returned to Angels Farm House about ten years after our original visit, this time with her 3 small children. Jo made us extremely welcome and it was a perfect stay. We only wished we had been able to take a longer break. The two spacious bedrooms and bathroom were perfect for our needs, and it was wonderful to have our own living/dining room too. Delicious and generous breakfasts. A very pretty garden to wander about in, The wonderful pottery. Free, easy parking. What's not to like? We loved it - thank you Jo!

What a weekend! I was lucky enough to take a space on the Angels Farm pottery weekend. Seeing Jo's skill at making pots was fabulous, as was the help and guidance given by Jo, Derek and Ann while we attempted our own creations.

Not only did we get to enjoy 2 days of pottery, the food was fantastic! Jo makes the most delicious cakes and biscuits to keep you going when you might be flagging - and her lovely husband teamed that with hot coffee and tea (which was served up in beautiful handmade pots - of course!). It doesn't hurt that this is served in one of the prettiest cottage gardens you could hope to sit in (yes Jo, we're talking about your amazing wisteria!). Lunch was restaurant quality - if I could cook vegetables like Penny I think I would stand a much better chance with my kids!

The course itself felt like just the right amount of time, I never felt rushed and all three potters made you feel right at home. Derek took the time to show me how to make a classic sponge on a stick - and didn't laugh at my spiral wedging attempts! I even got to have a go on Jo's kick wheel (needless to say, sadly it didn't give me Jo's ability!)

I've come home with pots I am proud of, and a determination to come back again to the delights of Angels Farm. Thank you so much for your time and guidance - will see you soon!

Finding this lovely home was a little tricky but when we eventually got there, Mrs Osmond welcomed us so nicely. She prepared a room for us ((my aunt and I). We had a great night, the breakfast was delicious.|The garden is wonderful and should you be interested in pottery, Mrs Osmond also is a 'pottery teacher'.|A great place from A to Z!

Beautiful place set in a beautiful region. My aunt and I stayed for one night at Mrs Osmond's home and it was just lovely. The room was clean, comfortable, perfectly well-equipped, the breakfast was great and...oh my this garden! Heaven on Earth. Not to mention the friendly owners. Thanks for all this short but great time we had together, Mrs Osmond.

This was our 3rd visit to Angel’s Farm. As ever, it did not disappoint. We booked the weekend of pottery with accommodation. The hosts, Jo, Phillip and Lyndsey are just so very welcoming, and the experience from start to finish was absolutely outstanding. Jo’s expertise at the wheel is always astounding, Jo and Lyndsey’s patience and tuition just wonderful.
Excellent breakfast to set us up for the day, and highlighted with amazing lunches from Penny. Penny’s menu’s are innovative and so very tasty.
We love the team at Angel’s farm and have booked already to return next year.
Thank you for all the specialness of this weekend

This was an incredible experience. We spent 3 nights in the family room. My Friend and I and 3 kids 10, 12, and 13. The house was beautiful, old and full of character, very clean and spacious. The beds comfortable and the breakfasts were the best breakfasts ever. The host Jo and her husband were very welcoming and made a pot of tea for us on our late arrival. Jo also gave us a private pottery class which was the highlight of our stay. The kids adored it. We took long walks around the house and Jo helped by providing us with maps. It was a perfect stay and we'll be coming back again, without children, just for the pottery. Couldn't rate this high enough. We all loved it.

My partner and I spent two days at Angels Farm and had the most brilliant and relaxing weekend. Beautiful garden, comfortable rooms, fresh and tasty breakfast (and amazing lunch with the course), fantastic pottery instruction and facilities. Quick walk to lots of pubs and restaurants as well as access to the forest just down the lane. Jo and her husband Philip are the most kind people. Highly recommend. We will be back!
