Dotty Pottery, Norwich Travel Guide

Nestled at White House Farm on Salhouse Road, just northeast of Norwich city centre, Dotty Pottery welcomes visitors to a vibrant studio where imagination comes to life. Founded by friends Rebecca and Pippa in 2012, it began as a mobile pottery service before establishing permanent locations, including this charming farm setting and a second studio at Wroxham Barns. The family-run business emphasizes accessible creativity, with activities designed for everyone from babies to adults.

Choose from a wide selection of bisque ceramics—mugs, plates, figurines, and more—and transform them with vibrant paints. Staff provide caddies with easy instructions, brushes, and all tools needed. No experience required; experts offer tips on techniques, writing messages, and finishing touches. Creations are glazed and fired for a professional, lasting result, ready for collection or shipping worldwide.

Dotty Pottery excels in capturing precious moments through baby hand and foot printing on ceramics, clay imprints, and full life casting. Highly trained staff ensure safe, high-quality results, creating unique keepsakes for christenings, birthdays, or anniversaries. Custom commissions are available, hand-painted to your specifications.

Ideal for birthdays, hen parties, baby showers, team-building, or casual gatherings, the studio features a dedicated party room. Enjoy onsite café refreshments while crafting. Regular workshops, themed events like Pizza & Painting nights, and SEN sessions run throughout the year, especially during school holidays. Gift vouchers make perfect presents.

Open daily except Wednesdays, with sessions starting from 10am. Ample parking, baby changing facilities, high chairs, and a toy corner cater to families. The welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and flexible bookings make it a must-visit for creative outings near Norwich.
