- Other
- Each class is for 5 people. The garden is open to the public, and the class will not be in a private place, so visitors will be actively enjoying their day out around you. Whilst there is a small conservatory, it may not have space for the class to retire to, and therefore it is advisable to come weather-proofed! Ellie will provide all materials which are included in the ticket price. You will be able to take your masterpiece home! The entry to the Garden is included in your ticket price, however, if you are bringing companions with you whilst you take part in the class, they will need to book their entry to the garden via the Overbecks Webpage. The class is intended for, and pitched at adults. For more information about Ellie, please look at her website ellieverrecchia.co.uk. The all important refreshments are just outside the front gates to the garden, at the converted horse box, and you are welcome to consume these in the garden, but we do ask you take the litter home with you. Toilets are available, but there are no accessible toilets at Overbecks.
