Having visited Ambleside in July we were delighted to stumble across this fantastic traditional shoe shop when looking for some suitable walking footwear. The staff went to great pains in advising us of the most appropriate boots for our fell walking experience as well as fitting them. Further more, they advised on the care & ever gave the proofing as a free extra. It is wonderful to know that 'proper' shoe shops still exist. I have since ordered a pair of sandals from them online & was delighted to receive the parcel the following day beautifully wrapped in traditional brown paper tied with string. The quality of this shop from the products to the service is without question. Definately; a destination shop! read more
