Immerse yourself in the art of traditional blacksmithing with a half-day course for Two on the breathtaking Roseland Peninsula, near Truro. Led by skilled blacksmith Ronen, these hands-on sessions take place in a charming workshop nestled beside a tranquil creek of the River Fal—a truly picturesque setting at the end of a country lane leading to St Mawes. Your half-day experience for two begins with a warm welcome from Ronen, a passionate and highly skilled artisan. With a background in architecture, he brings a keen eye for detail and design to his beautifully crafted, functional pieces. Under his expert instruction, you’ll learn traditional forging techniques and craft your own unique item—perhaps a fire poker, bottle opener, or another hand-forged treasure. Be sure to dress for the workshop—it gets hot and messy, so long sleeves are a must! Workshops are open to ages 10 and up, provided teens are accompanied by an adult. With an idyllic setting, expert tuition, and the thrill of creating your own metalwork, this blacksmithing experience in Cornwall is one you won’t want to miss!
