BESPOKE SERVICE

First class customer service unique to you. 

What a great way to spend 3 days! It was with some trepidation that I arrived at
The Rocking Horse Shop to become a student at the 'Carve a Head' course. I had
minimal experience with woodwork having made some small wooden toys, but had
never tried my hand at carving. The first thing to be said is how friendly
everyone was, only 2 mins after entering the premises I had a cup of coffee in
my hand.

You were never rushed, everything from carving techniques to use of special
power tools was very well explained. All 5 students ended up with rocking horse
heads that we could be proud of. We had learned the basics of a great craft and
had some fun along the way. I have the rest of the timber pack and am now
looking forward to completing the whole rocking horse.?If you have ever
considered trying your hand at carving or making a complete rocking horse, then
put it off no longer, this is the course for you. I can't recommend it highly
enough.

Paul Lattimore

We love the rocking horse - it is absolutely as we wanted it. Thank you! 

Denise Caruth Stevenson

Thank you for the rocking horse received. Packed extremely well. Exactly as
ordered. Real leather saddle and straps looks absolutely beautiful. Delighted
with the product.
Full marks to the company, for the way the order the has been handled in the
time specified. Would recommend this family run company.
Thank you so much.

Margaret Land

Would highly recommend the Rocking Horse shop to anyone thinking of buying a
horse. Extremely impressed with the high quality horse and your service. Thank
you so much.

Nicola Cassia

I am lost for words and quite emotional just looking at my restoration, he looks
absolutely amazing.

The whole team have done an incredible job. I can't believe that you have all
restored him given the terrible state he was in. But that is down to the skill
and craftsmanship of the ladies and gentlemen at The Rocking Horse Shop. Would
you pass on my thanks (which doesn't seem enough) to all involved in his
transformation!

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the warm welcome I received
last week on the Head Carving Course. It was a genuine pleasure to spend time in
the work shop with a highly skilled and creative tutor. The 3 days provided
ample opportunity to share this enthusiasm and to learn from a master craftsman.
Thank you again for your support, guidance and timely advice. I feel equipped
and inspired to complete my very own medium rocking horse which I am sure will
become a munched loved addition to our family. 

Steve Kibble, Cornwall

This is just to say how delighted I am with our restored rocking horse which
arrived safely yesterday.  The handsome horse seems a far cry from the poorly
horse we dropped off in May and it is now in pride of place in the dining room
awaiting introduction to the grandchildren next week.

It has been a pleasure to deal with your enthusiastic team and the result is
great. It arrived on time as agreed and on budget. 

Rosemary Burke

I have to agree with all the positive reviews already made on the 3 day workshop
on carving a rocking horse head. I experienced a very well organised course on
learning the techniques for using the tools on solid wood without messing up the
head right away, leading on to shaping the head as you would like. Just follow
what is demonstrated step by step and you will end up with a very professional
looking horse’s head and a good working knowledge of how to use the tools. I had
already assembled the Large Rocky and carved the body but I needed some practise
on a head. This was just what I needed. I am now full of enthusiasm to complete
the Large Rocky. Most enjoyable, full of fun and a fabulous active holiday.
There were six of us on the course and there were six good looking heads after
only three days. I could not recommend this workshop more highly. The only
negative is that I had to go home afterwards.

David Smith

I just want to say how wonderful our new rocking horse that you delivered last
week is.  It really is a fantastic work of art and I wish to express my sincere
thanks to all who worked on it.  It really did exceed all my expectations.  So a
massive thank you to everyone.

Brian Simpson, Yorkshire

I am writing to express my appreciation for the great customer service I have
received from The Rocking Horse shop during making a Large Rocky Rocking Horse.
On the three occasions I either phoned or emailed I was given helpful and
friendly advice which was followed by a speedy delivery.
