It's also a good place to buy items to put in home made christmas crackers like the old fashioned fish that curl up in your hand and jumping beans (remember them?). I bought quite a few little stocking fillers like a growing penguin, a little man that my toddler can bend bubbles, a Kazoo (that you blow) all for under £1 each. This shop will take you back to your childhood. The service is also really good as I asked if they sold a certain type of item and the lady said they used to and went to their store room to see if they had any of the items left. Unfortuantely they did not but she went out of her way to help me.

Its like entering a magical kingdom - loads to look at including dressing up outfits, toys, bedroom accessories, ballet clothes and shoes and loads of gifts. They do have a small boys section but this is definately a girly girls shop! The staff are dressed as fairies and costumes are amazing. They make a big fuss of the children and will often offer balloons for the kids to take away. Guarenteed to find something within your budget as prices vary greatly. Not ideal to take the pushchair in as the shop is small.

I love Flower Heaven! I called from the US to have flowers delivered to my Mum for her birthday!…read moreAmanda was so very helpful in arranging for a beautiful flower arrangement in a vase for her. She even had the box of chocolates gift wrapped as well. When I called, it was almost 1pm over there and the shop closes at 2pm on Wednesdays. They were unable to deliver that day, but reached out to me via email to let me know that they would try again first thing the next day. Amanda was excellent in communicating with me every step of the way. She even sent me a picture of the delivered flower arrangement and gift-wrapped chocolates. The pricing was very reasonable too and my Mum was so happy with her beautiful flowers! Definitely recommend!

WARNING for everyone out there, be careful what you buy from them as they will never give your…read moremoney back, if you're unhappy (for NON-PERISHABLES) and force you to buy anything from them only, with a credit note. This being totally unacceptable on a very small shop which there aren't much options to choose from. Story: My partner bough a non-perishable foam bear from them which I was unhappy with, so i returned straight away. I wanted to buy garden flowers, but they haven't got any and as I'm unhappy with buying cut flowers which they die in few weeks, I asked for refund, but the shop claimed they cannot do refund and gave me a credit note. For being unknowledgeable i accepted the note, until I checked their website (you can check all that) stating they cannot do refunds on perishable and personalised items (which is totally fair) but not on my non-perishable foamy bear, which they sold the next minute. I contacted them by email stating all that, but they refused to give any money back claiming that I got my credit note (I also offered that back, but was refused). I will never use their voucher and I will go to bigger authorities to solve my case as I still want my money back, being my right to do so, stating in their terms. Bad behaviour to take ownership on people's money just because you can! I want to choose what to do with my money, not you a small shop, to force me to buy your dying flowers and also within your timeline.
