Lovely toy shop with a wonderful selection of toys. The staff are always so helpful and friendly. When I go in with my... two little girls they are more than happy for them to also explore the shop so that means I can shop and they can have a little play. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Highly recommend.read more

I am delighted to have by passed the big corporations, bought a recycled product and have supported a high street business in a town - any town. Thanks also to the postman who got me out of bed to take delivery!read more

Just home after a wonderful birthday for our 3 year old daughter. Organising toddler parties can be stressful but not... when Julie and the team are involved. I can’t honestly say I couldn’t have asked for anything more...the food, decoration, planning, assistance and party bags were truly amazing and made all the better for the most friendly, helpful service. It’s been a delight from start to finish and you really do go that extra mile to make the experience the best it can possibly be. Thank you so much for making it such a magical day xxread more
