By Car: The Herefordshire village of Eastnor is located 2 miles East of Ledbury on the A438. Ledbury – Tewkesbury road. We are not too far from the M50, connecting us with the M5 and the rest of the country. Once in the village, pick-up signs for the Pottery. NB If you are travelling via the M50, set the satnav to journey via Ledbury to avoid narrow, winding lanes and a ford. Plenty of free parking in the Pottery carpark in front of the studio or use the approach lane as an overflow.
By Train: Ledbury is the nearest train station. You’ll need to pre-book a taxi to journey the 2 miles to the Pottery as there isn’t a taxi rank or public transport. There are footpaths but the 3 miles are muddy and hilly – recommended only for seasoned hikers.
