As well as being a busy glass heritage site, the Red House Glass Cone is also home to a number of creative studios. These are open Mondays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays (10am - 4pm) and each has a small range of items for sale in the cone's gift shop. Drop in to one of the on-site studios to watch artists at work or place a commission for a unique gift. As studios are independent please call them direct to check opening times.
