It just struck me (like a bolt of lightening, some might say) before I began my review as to why…read morethis place is named so...Hardys Hardware. Excellent. Aside from the innovative name, Hardys is a pretty darn good wee shop. The fact that it's slightly more than a hardware store made me feel slightly more at ease (you may recall my previous review [singular] of a hardware store, and how I felt completely out of place), but I have to say that it was also the accompaniment of my dad that made the whole experience generally nicer. Thanks Daddy. Back to the vast range of stock though. Yes, it's got the wood, tools, gadgets and DIY stuff, but there's a huge variety of other stuff too. There's toiletries, household cleaners, pet goods, home decor...even confectionery! I got lost in the toiletry section while my dad looked for some man thingy. Or something like that. It's definitely the extensive assortment of goods that makes Hardys that little bit special. Hardys and Other Items You May Find Yourself Needing doesn't have quite the same ring though...

Its based in Bloomfield Shopping Centre so its easy to get to and there is plenty of parking about.

Called in for a nose at the sale stuff even though I wouldn't buy a thing from here in a million years as it is all soulless mass produced over priced middle class crap. The sale was rubbish - a two seater sofa reduced down to £900 even though it was very similar to a sofa a few doors away that was priced at £500! Don't get me started on the clothes - really expensive and dootsy - skirts that are either too full or a weird length. Dresses that my mammy wouldn't even wear. I dunno this place is not for me. If I lived in a pastel palace or a lighthouse I might buy the wallpaper and bed linen from here - but I don't so I won't.

Closer examination shows that although the stock is brand new, House of Lights caters for very traditional tastes. There are also lampshades for sale in various colours and you can find lightbulbs of every type in here which is useful if you're flummoxed as to where to find an unusual bulb for a novel lamp from a certain Swedish furniture store. I had to exchange said light bulb three times before locating the right one but in they were most accommodating about my errors so thanks to the convenience of House of Lights and the helpful staff I got there in the end.

Great for getting inspiration on projects like desk and table lamps too.

Located opposite Urban Outfitters…read more Good place for gifts. Have quite a few local items. Expect to pay on certain items more than standard retail due to the handmade aspect. Lots of wee cute toys etc for kids. Also lots of house soft furnishings. It's the sort of place you would like to buy lots of stuff you don't need but it looks nice. Lol Lots of chalk paint colours can be bought in here. The shop is packed with gifts etc. You have to hoke a bit as its jammed packed with things laid out on wooden dressers and tables etc. It's a bit kitch compared to just browsing the rails. Shop has a sort of Cath Kidston feel about it.

The building itself is bright and inviting and there are plenty of parking spaces both front and back of the building. Plants and gardening equipment is on the ground floor at the back so if you are purchasing any of the more heavy /large objects it might be a good idea to park round the back. The plants are all very healthy looking and reasonably priced and there are staff on hand to give advice. Upstairs with access to the front there is a delightful gift shop with some exquisite items to suite everyone and all areas of the home . It is an ideal place to go for that special present for wedding /birthday/baby in fact for every occasion you can think. There is also a cafe on the premises which serves breakfast /morning coffee / lunch and tea .The service is very good and the prices are very reasonable . I visited this place for the first time today and I certainly will be back again . It's the sort of place that us ladies love and have to be dragged out off! You certainly could spend a morning /afternoon browsing around as there are lots and lots if treasures to view.

I needed half a dozen 1 inch srews to fix a small door at home and I was charged 12p each for them and I think I could have bought the whole box of 200 for about £2.00 . The guy who sold them to me actuallly said "sure 70p will do for them" as if he was doing me a big favour. I had a quick look around while I was there and if you were into DIY there was certainly plenty to choose from but the prices were very high compared to the likes of B&Q for instance and they aren't exactly cheap. The youngest staff member.. I think his name was James seemed very helpful and knowledgeable but the man who served me was very dull and hardly even made eye contact with me. Definately will not be back..couldn't afford it.
