Unlike many antique stores it is well arranged and fairly spacious (3 levels) and NOT dusty like so may that tend to make you sneeze with decades old dust and mold spores in the air. It is primarily upmarket (and pricey) but some very nice art and furniture pieces. Mrs G loved a painting there but just too small for our 15 foot ceilinged family room (converted Manor house) and I loved a massive dining table (too big!!!). Still we had a fun time shopping, and came away with a century old 3 tier cake stand. Chris who manages (owns?) the place is exceeding friendly and helpful Two thumbs up

For the kitchen there is all sorts of crockery, chinaware, cookware, glassware, tableware and gadgets. From the traditional to retro to ulta modern.

Larger goods can either be delivered or you can drive round the back to pick them up by car.

I lost about £150 on the refund as the exchange rate had changed and they could not have cared less.
