Cheshire Workshops and Craft Centre



A visitor attraction providing fun and entertainment for all ages set in the picturesque village of Burwardsley. Candle making has been a craft at Burwardsley for over fifty years when these unique hand carved candles were first made. Ancient candle making skills are still practiced at the workshop.

Sculptured candles remain a favourite with visitors. There will be the opportunity to admire the skill of the candle makers at work - candle carving demonstrations can be arranged for groups by prior request. This is more than just a 'look and buy' experience, craftsmen will be pleased to create a candle to your specification whilst you wait.

Candle making is just the tip of the iceberg. Let your children craft their own masterpieces, with a range of activities to suit all age groups, including pottery painting, making spoon puppets, fridge magnets and badges to name but a few.

Restaurant and gift shop.
