Hamlins toy shop used to be located on the High Street but moved to Lower Kings Road a few years…read moreago, I presume to take advantage of the larger premises. The shop is always well stocked with a variety of childrens toys, including some you are unlikely to find in many supermarkets. Reasonably priced, this would be the ideal place to purchase a child's Christmas present. How the shop survives the rest of the year I do not know, but it always seems to be fairly bustling, so I suggest combining a visit with a trip to Waitrose or something. It's not worth heading in to town for a visit alone, but be sure to bear it in mind.

They carry a really good range of power ranger toys, best in the area. Staff always seem very friendly and helpful. Has a much more personal feel than the huge stores, I would definately recommend this shop.

I heard this was the toy store of all toy stores and it indeed was. There were 7 floors of product,…read moreeach dedicated to a theme. Suitable for all ages. There were many photo opportunities and lots of demonstrations as well. The sales people worked for the store and there was no pressure at all. We were there a little under an hour and discovered many new items. Our kids really enjoyed the lego and Wicked themed areas. There is also a cotton candy machine where you can watch it being made through the glass, all automated. We somehow left without purchasing anything due to our inability to take it back home.

This is one of the nicest toy shops I've ever had the fortune to spend time in. They have all the…read morenicest brands (Le Toy Van, My Doll, Wheely Bugs etc), and the owners don't mind at all if you spend ages with your kids playing with things. It didn't even phase them when my 2 year old wee'd on the floor! The owners are parents themselves, so all the lines they stock have been thought through with children in mind, and there isn't the usual rubbish you get. All the toys are extremely high quality, and worth splashing out that little bit extra on because they will last your children for years to come. The staff are lovely, friendly and very helpful, and the toys are just heaven. The store is quite small, but they have managed to fit lots in there. You need to park in one of the main town car parks, neither of which is very far from the shop. The doorway is quite narrow, so if you have a side by side double buggy you will need to leave it outside or fold it up. It would be very easy indeed to spend a horrendous amount of money in here, so I like to give myself a very strict budget before I go in, otherwise I'll end up buying a £200 Arc or something!

I spent quite a bit of time in here when I had my first, especially looking at the baby section…read more The older salespeople that work there have got it right - they take care of you and help you explore the products (I was looking at buggies) without making you feel too pressured to buy. The younger staff (mainly checkout) are the usual sulky teenagers. The store is the same as any toys r us - designed to trap you as you enter mad make you go through a maze of aisles before you can get to what you want. They already have your kids' absolute attention with all the great toys - I don't get why they have to use such blatent child manipulation techniques. As always, I will check prices online before going here as they are often cheaper on other sites.

Toys are easy to see and are all easy to reach. Everything is competitively priced and compares favourably with Argos and Woolworth. Parking is a bit difficult and I found it best to park down a side road and walk back to the shop. My children particularly like the stocking filler type toys starting from around 20p. A lovely place to brows. The shop specialises in Lego, Playmobil, Sylvanian Families, Thomas and Friends and more.
