Jayne has been making trousers for many years and has been taught by many of the great tutors of our time so has a wealth of experience to pass on as this has been her particular interest.


Gaddens is situated in a lovely spot in The New Forest so why don’t you come for a few days, enjoy the trouser fun and explore the forest. There are lots of places to stay.

If you are local, come and join us.
