Surrey House Courses

Guildford, Surrey

Interior design and decoration courses in a Surrey country house - for business or for pleasure. The three day semi-professional course is for those wanting to decorate their home to a high standard themselves, or for those thinking of a change of career. Everyone leaves with a portfolio of work and a certificate. The courses are held in an award winning period property that has been decorated in a classic contemporary style.... the advantage of this (as opposed to being in a classroom) is knowledge is applied to a real life example.

I recently did Sally's three day course and loved it so much I decided to do the extension day also. I'm so pleased I did! The three day course was fantastic. Sally is so knowledgable, patient, kind and inspiring. I learnt so much during the three day course, it covered all the aspects for Interiors, including scaled drawing (particularly helpful as I'm currently redesigning both my bathroom and en suite), lighting and of course mood boards, fabric and furnishings. I think I learned more during those three days than I could have doing a similar course lasting a year! I did the extension day on Friday and was lucky enough to be the only one on the course. I have come away from that day so inspired and ready to start a new career. I cannot recommend Sally highly enough. If you're looking to do an interior design course, you need look no further!

I have just been on Sally’s 3 day interiors course and really enjoyed it. Sally is so professional, a great teacher and really knowledgeable in this field. I would recommend this course for anyone wanting to gain knowledge and confidence in interior design.

I attended the three day residential course and loved every minute of it! If there was such a thing as a follow up course I would have signed up for it! As the group was small Sally was able to pay you a lot of individual attention, she was always encouraging and patient. Her passion for interior design is evident. It was the right balance between theory and practical; and it was lovely to work on your own ideas but see everyone else’s develop too. As the three days were staggered it gives you the opportunity to take on board and think about what you have learnt the previous day. We covered a lot of different topics and Sally was very forthcoming with ideas/websites/books should you wish to study topics to a deeper level. Thank you Sally.

This three day residential course is a must for anyone interested in going beyond basic interior design and is definitely value for money. Sally is a great tutor and encourages you to think out of your comfort zone as well as teaching you the tricks of the trade. You will cover a lot of skills and ideas over a short period of time and with everything supplied you will come away with a portfolio to treasure. The beauty of this course is that it is staggered over a week (3 days - every other day) giving you time to take in what you have learned,together with wonderful food and an idyllic setting!

I can't thank Sally enough for her knowledge, inspiration and encouragement on the 3-day course I attended. Learning about interiors in the comfort of her stunning home gives you style inspo from the get-go! Sally is a professional and really knows her stuff. The course was informative, fun and friendly and I came away completely buzzing with ideas. I'm doing my first mood board for a friend so am already putting what I've learnt into action.

Myself and four other ladies completed Sally's 3 day course a couple of weeks ago. I can wholeheartedly say that ALL of us had the best time. I absolutely loved it, Sally was a great teacher, very patient and because it was such a small group, was able to give us individual attention. I loved doing the mood boards, and it was great having all the bits and pieces readily available for us to use, including magazines, swatches, colour chart etc. If you're looking for some inspiration, or are planning on doing a project at home or for someone else, this course is a great foundation. thanks for an amazing 3 days Sally, I wish it had lasted a lot longer :) Tara

I have just attended the short course and found the mix of clever tips and logical planning easy to follow, giving me a framework from which to plan the interior design of my home. Sally is a born teacher; knowledgeable, clear, patient and supportive. Thank you for your good humour and encouragement, and for creating an oasis of calm from which to develop my ideas.

I have attended Sally's 3 days course and would highly recommend it. Sally is a truly inspirational, talented and charming lady who knows her subject well and very good at teaching it. Came away from the course a lot more confident, feel it was value for money as well as a lot of knowledge and new ideas - thank you Sally!!

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and left feeling I had learnt a lot, as well as a little sad that it had ended. I have always done a lot of my work by eye, having worked in Layout Planning and Visual Merchandising for retail. It was brilliant for me to understand the principles behind interior design. I will now make bolder decisions and be able to reflect my true individual style within my own house, as well as having the confidence to take my career down a different route. Sally is a superb teacher and listened carefully to each of our requirements. She tailored the course to our individual needs, and was always patient and welcoming. It was an excellent way to learn and who could ask for a better environment, in Sally's home.
