We went there with the kids and expected to see a chocolate factory, but there is not a chocolate factory, and the funny thing is because nearly the all chocolate is from somewhere else and very very

Fantastic selection of confectionery items. Lots of toblerone bars with sentimental messages on the wrapping. Selection of tasty chocolates that you could choose from to make your own selection box from the counter. Had lots of other sweet options that were non chocolate

Average at best. Not really worth a visit. The sweets and treats on offer are nothing special at all. Chocolates lack any real flavour and are not very chocolaty, bland tasting and lacking in any cacao or real chocolate flavour. The fudge was almost completely tasteless and not worth the money at all. The are far better places to visit than this, even the local co-op has better chocolate.

You won't be able to resist the delights that await you in here, absolutely delicious treats in all kinds of flavours and beautifully presented in high quality boxes and finished with a hand tied ribbon. Every time we go we are met with warm, friendly staff, eager and willing to cater to your every need and wants. Ample space around the shop for wheelchairs, walking aids or prams and buggies, ample parking just beside the shop.

Lovely shop, with lots of beautiful gifts. Had a 30th birthday chocolate bar made especially for my daughter, with her name. It was perfect & she loved it. Thankyou ❤

Took my 7 and 3 year old here, my oldest did this last year and loved it. This year we thought we would let our 3 year old try, however, he did not like the idea of being in the room without his mum. The ladies running the chocolate making were lovely and told me to get a hair net from the desk and come in with him. Unfortunately, the lady on the desk was not as understanding and she refused, informing me I would have to pay £18 to stand next to my 3 year old. The lady was rude and completely lacked empathy for situations like this. My 3 year old lasted 5 minutes in the room and the lovely ladies running the chocolate making told me to come in as he couldn’t settle without me standing beside him. This was greatly appreciated. I feel this policy needs revisiting -(or other staff need additional training on matters like this and the best way to deal with them instead of being rude to the customer) The option to take a parent with very young children I am sure would be greatly appreciated by many parents so their little ones can enjoy the experience. Understandably, this couldn’t happen with all children as there just isn’t the room to do so, however, some give and take is definitely needed with 3 year olds. It’s a lovely experience for kids and after we got over this small issue, they loved it.

Excellent place to visit with kids, kids loved it especially eating all the left over chocolate bits. They made a soldier and dinosaur, chocolate block with there name on and a marshmallow catapiller.
