The shop (renovated house) is huge and has two floors of rooms stuffed full of antiques This shop sells period clothing which is the main reason me and my friends visit because we are interested in such things. It is enjoyable to walk around, yet a little creepy at times, especially if you are on your own. Staff are generally friendly but a little weary about youths and so when we walk in they follow us around the whole shop in case we do something stupid i suppose. The antiques are crammed in and so you have to be careful when you are walking round and this can be hard when things are hanging off of tables. It never seems to get very busy at all. The prices can be quite expensive.

I strongly disagree with the previous reviewer. This Antiques Centre is very busy. It has been open…read moresince 1996 and has a thriving atmosphere. Staff are very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and always there to help. It has over 55 dealers on two floors dealing in all sorts of antiques and collectables including vintage clothing, silver, vinyl records, furniture, military items, antique jewellery and much more. I love it and visit every week.

Lots of little areas of interest and a tearoom with homemade cakes. We do like a nice garden to share a cippa and a chat, the whole experience was ruined by the surly waitress who obviously did not want to be there on a Sunday. Tea arrived in two cardboard cups & cake in a bag. Not really good enough for £9.00 A real shame.

Interesting place to browse around. Cafe has a very relaxed feeling with nice outdoor spaces.read more

In contrast to the previous review, while I did note that the owners have a Bentley and that many of the things they sell are reproductions etc I do believe that they offer a real service, are helpful in meeting your needs and they do have some antiques which are labeled as such. We have a fun time and came home with about 700 pounds of items (not a single antique!) and are happy with what we got. Will be back but will look elsewhere for a bigger selection of true antiques.

I've been visiting this site for a few years now, and I must say it just appears like a tiny amount…read moreof legitimate antiques are maintained at astronomical prices - possibly because they aren't there to be sold? The same barometers and grandfather clocks have been there for years. It is sadly flooded with strange derivative furniture and accessories (like fake Louis Vuitton bookends, moet and chandon cushions, and new, but made to look old, Coca Cola accessories which I'm sure are on a bit of a rocky standing legally...) New in is the weird 'fake antique' Peaky Blinders stuff that seems to be drowning every vintage store these days. Look, the place is really fine and potentially good to look around, sometimes you might find a nice piece in there, however marketing itself as an antique centre of sorts is not really justified. It is 75% new stock and a few magnificent, but over-priced, antiques. Lots of good reclaimed garden furniture but again, the prices are painful in constrast to local reclaimation sites.

However, this is a cute little antique store with a variety of things from furniture, to knick knacks, prints, etc. We came looking for antique furniture, and while they didn't have what we were looking for, we did find a pair of unique cufflinks. Location has ample free parking which is very convenient. It definitely has a little something for everyone.

You can pick up furniture and household items right through to clothes and accessories if you are not afraid to have a bit of a rummage. The things on sale here change all the time so it's not the kind of place I go looking for something specific. This is more a curiosity shop type vibe to browse through and discover what it is you went in there for along the way.

This is just down the road from a friends, and I can't thank her enough for introducing me to it! It's an absolute maze of wonder, floors and floors of rooms, filled with cabinets, pieces for auction, and an adorable cafe too. You can find all manner of trinkets, niknaks, some clothes, furniture, homewares, bits for your garden- basically, if you wanted, you could kit your whole life out here. Obviously, being so varied, not everything is to everyone's taste, but it is most certainly worth a look around, or just a cream tea!!

It is a relatively small space but packed with some antiques, lots of vintage items and other items from many individuals.

Prices are generally reasonable, but if needed you can haggle or negotiate (they get the owner on the phone). Yes we are both looking forward to visiting again tomorrow!
