The Main Event

Are they always surprising you with their latest hobby or creative pursuit? Give them a truly unique experience with an unforgettable blacksmith experience in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. 

This is where the art of forging metal meets the magic of medieval craftsmanship. Here, they'll step into the glowing warmth of a traditional blacksmith forge and try their hand at one of the world’s oldest and most timeless skills. 

Guided by a skilled blacksmith, this is a journey back to an era when fire and iron shaped the world. Perfect for history buffs, creative spirits, or anyone who dreams of wielding a hammer and bringing metal to life.

Available as a 3 hour class or a 5 hour class

  • 3-hour class: Ideal for beginners, they’ll forge items steeped in practicality and charm, such as a Viking-style knife, fire poker, bottle opener, candle stick, hook, or hair pin.
  • 5-hour class: Take it up a notch and create intricate pieces like a door knocker, hanging basket bracket, boot jack, or even a design of their own.

This experience makes a fantastic birthday gift for him, a memorable adventure for couples who have everything, or even a unique date experience. Whether crafting a piece of history or creating something entirely personal, the satisfaction of working with fire and metal is an experience like no other.

Give them the chance to embrace the art of fire and iron, connect with a skill that has stood the test of time, and leave with something truly special, made with their very own hands.
