Enjoy a fascinating insight into the world of Wedgwood with an experience that combines the heritage of this famous brand with the chance to have some hands-on fun at the Wedgwood Visitor Centre. Follow coffee and shortbread on arrival with a self-guided tour of the centre, including the £10.5 million museum where you'll learn all about Josiah Wedgwood and his company. Next up, waitress service provides a delicious, two-course lunch at the Ivyhouse restaurant (served on Wedgwood china, of course!). Then it's time to get your hands dirty - literally! Helped by a master craftsman you'll throw a pot or paint a plate of your own, to be fired and sent on to your home address to take pride of place on your mantelpiece. You'll also receive an exclusive piece of handmade Wedgwood jewellery (ladies or gents) with a value of at least £50, a privilege card giving you two years' free entry and a ten percent discount off shopping in the exclusive Wedgwood Shop and Gift boutique.
