the worktable

At the centre of it all.

A generous, solid work table sits at the heart of the workshop — perfect for group projects, collaborative making or laid-back discussions.

Generously sized for creative work, with the solidity to support serious making.

The space works equally well for structured sessions and more open, exploratory formats — set it up however works best for your group.

step outside

The grounds are yours too.

When you need air and a change of scene, step outside to the pergola, the garden or the North Downs countryside beyond.

It's the kind of outdoor space that lends itself perfectly for breakout conversations, a proper lunch break, or just a few minutes of quiet.

The North Downs Way runs past the gate — a lunchtime walk is never far.

  • High Birch played a pivotal role in the launch of our small creative business

    “High Birch is set within a beautiful hamlet that provides an inspiring and memorable setting for our attendees. The property; its grounds and the workshop deliver a real wow factor which consistently leaves a wonderful impression.

    The workshop itself is practical and inspiring. Inside, there is enough space to comfortably deliver our creative classes and the natural light that floods in makes it an ideal place for artistic work.”
