The staff are very friendly, helpful and knowledgable and I'm amazed with all the items stocked they can point you to the location very quickly.
A treasure of a local shop
- They have most things and it has a 'tardis' feel
- Good hideout for zombie invasions
- Friendly staff
Cons:
- Shop is a labyrinth; I'm sure people emerge from there having not seen sunlight in days.
- A health and safety officer's nightmare; if there was a fire, those escaping would trip over everything first.
- A big con: Tear-able compost bags which were unusable and had clearly been in-store too long. Check your stock quality.
- No prices or receipts
- Minimum £5 spend on cards*
* Depending on the card provider this is illegal, but poorly enforced - the only reason for doing it is to avoid payment processing fees, and a benefit of not doing it is forcing the customer to pay more (which I did, via surprisingly expensive unusable compost bags).
The staff appear to be quite knowledgeable and straight when responding to questions.
During COVID19 the main body of the store is cordoned off and the staff will fetch any items required. Only two customers can be in reception at any one time. This may change as the rules relax.
Parking nearby is difficult so if any heavy items are required this may be a problem. Phone to check stock and arrange delivery.
The nearest comparable store is Metcalfes in Tring.
