Berry Hill Recording Studio is situated in the Forest of Dean, 5 miles south of Monmouth, near the Welsh border, and for over 20 years was the private recording facility of song writer/record producer John David - the most successful Welsh songwriter since Ivor Novello. In 1998 he started having a few local acts use the recording studio, and the word quickly spread about this state of the art, 800 sq. ft. professional recording studio that had become available, and which offered exceptional value for money. It has since become a favourite of beginners and pros alike. Live acts especially, from 45 piece choirs, to folk groups, to full ahead rock bands. They love the space and the live recording facilities. We also have a selection of guitars, basses, sound modules and samplers etc for use by visiting artists free of charge; tea and coffee are also free.

Although the recording studio is still used mainly for John’s writing & production projects, and by some of the acts signed to his record label - Javelin Records, we are always pleased to welcome any artist to Berry Hill recording Studio where John personally engineers everything that is recorded here, and is always on hand for free help and advice.

Unless the client wants otherwise, the finished mixes are mastered in-house to Red Book standard, with all relevant commercial codes embedded.  
We also master home produced CDs or albums recorded elswhere, to the same high standard.

Berry Hill Recording Studio is predominantly a music recording facility, but we also do Voice-overs, Talking books, Schools projects, Telephone menus, Jingles etc. We also transfer old media to new, such as vinyl or tape to CD.
