I wonder if i may ask some of you guys some questions. I have recently been approached by a very good client friend of mine who has a stunning property in a town called Staithes situated in North Yorkshire. It is famous for its beautiful scenery and for its links to art groups. He has renovated the property he inherited from his mother and converted some old buildings into apartments/ accommodation, a gallery, conference rooms music rooms etc. He wishes to use the site as an artists retreat/ holiday home and to promote some art tourism for the area. Now my reason for posting this question. He has asked me to organize and run blacksmithing courses from some old farm barns using his site, the accommodation, his large grounds, woodland walks etc. Do any of you guys run or know any one who runs residential blacksmithing courses? I would really appreciate some feedback as to whether or not i should invest not only alot of effort but also some finances into pursuing this venture. What are the pitfalls, pro`s & cons? What sort of things do i need to know and be aware of? What and where would i have to concentrate advertising? Is it the sort of thing that attracts paying guests/tourists. In short is it worth doing?
