The Clay Corner Pottery Painting
Hayle, CornwallAbout The Clay Corner Pottery Painting
The Clay Corner is located by the sea in the lovely town of Hayle in St Ives bay offering pay and paint sessions for all ages to spend a couple of hours together being creative. We offer a huge range of pieces to paint ranging from £5-£30 and the ability to take away on the day. Kids love The Clay Corner's range of animals, toys, fairies and much more to paint. From magnets to money boxes there is something for everyone. A wonderful keepsake or a gift or just a chance to escape the Cornish weather!
Our staff are on hand to help and advise along the way and we provide stencils and stamps to help you get started.
Free wifi means you can search for inspiration or just pop on the tunes while you escape for a couple of hours in painting.
The Clay Corner is situated in a lovely artisan market which includes shops and cafes so don't hesitate to grab a treat and a drink to bring in with you. If we don't have a table for you straight away explore the shops, the seafront and grab an ice cream while you wait!
We can't wait to welcome you in!
Painting fun for all the family
A welcoming, creative pottery painting studio offering walk in bisque painting, workshops and parties. A relaxing environment for all ages to enjoy being creative and discover skills you never knew you had!
All equipment provided including paints, aprons, brushes, stencils and more to get your creativity flowing.
A wonderful rainy day activity
We love being by the sea but it's not always beach weather! At The Clay Corner you can create a holiday keepsake to take the beach home with you and bring the sunshine inside with our cosy relaxed studio.
Fun for the little ones
We provide highchairs so the little ones can get messy too while you paint. Footprints and handprints are encouraged here and make a great keepsake or gift.
