The showroom is the sole outlet for the pottery and is open Monday to Saturday from 9.30am to 6.00pm. Visits out with these times can be arranged by telephoning 01851 850345 or email borghpottery@yahoo.co.uk.borghpottery@yahoo.co.uk.

Car parking is available at the pottery, longer vehicles and coaches can park adjacent to the pottery.
The pots are all hand-thrown or hand-built using traditional techniques. This method of working allows flexibility and scope in design; it is therefore possible to accept commissions for a variety of work from Dinner Sets to One-Off speciality items. The stoneware is ovenproof and safe in the dishwasher.
Alex and Sue use a selection of their own rich and muted glazes which have a depth and quality only to be found in high fired stoneware. For a small pottery there is a wide range of glazes colour and finish, from gloss to matt.

		Borgh Pottery Garden. The garden was started in 1995 and has now created a sheltered environment for birds and other wildlife – a stroll around the garden will reveal a surprising variety of plants , shrubs and interesting finds from beachcombing on the nearby Atlantic shore.
