More about your stay
Situated in beautiful North Devon, Taddiport is a 20 minute car journey to the stunning North Devon coast. The beaches offer golden sands ideal for surfers, bathers or walkers.
Within a 20 minute walk of your stay, you can hire bikes at Torrington and cycle along the Tarka Trail.
While staying I would recommend you visit the quaint village of Appledore or the smugglers paradise of Clovelly.
The beautiful RHS garden Rosemoor is a short 5 minute drive and definitely worth a visit.
Something more local? A short 20 minute walk along the river from Taddiport, will take you to the puffing Billy café, for light lunches, breakfast or just tea and coffee.
Finish your day at the local pub the ‘Torridge Inn’ in the village serving great Tia Food. Booking is a must.
Raw Materials
Your Recycled or Fairtrade Gold
The costs for gold bands varies depending on the market, sizing, style, width of band and carat. If you would like gold bands, a final price for your stay can be agreed when booking.
The final gold price includes Hallmarking at the London Assay Office and insured postage to your chosen address.
Fairtrade Gold
Fairtrade gold will cost approximately 16% more on the cost of the gold and will be stamped with the Fairtrade logo inside the ring along with the other hallmarks.
Your Recycled Gold
You are welcome to bring your own family gold which can be melted and formed into a usable shape to make a band. This creates a memory of your loved ones.
I can provide a guide on the weight of gold required for your chosen style of ring. To melt existing gold there will be an extra £100 per couple. If your require additional gold, this can be supplied at additional cost and quoted at the time of booking.
Other Precious Metals
Some precious metals such as Platinum and Palladium can be very difficult to work with so I would use the casting process.
If you choose the ‘Silver Workshop Experience’ the silver rings you make on the day can be sent off to a casting company where your rings will be cast to exactly how you made the silver rings. The cost of casting is an extra £125 per ring, plus the cost of the precious metal and hallmarking. You will be returned the original silver rings you made at the workshop.
