This place is a gem - helpful staff ( even 2 women, for the female customers amongst us who…read moresometimes like to have the option to ask another woman about DIY stuff!) and pretty much everything you'll ever need. You pay a hefty premium for the convenience and location though, so be aware that it might well be much cheaper elsewhere. Sometimes though, when you need that vital bit of kit but can't travel to the north circular to get it, I'm happy to pay the extra.

We popped in to get ourselves a couple of deck chairs for the garden, to make the most of the sunshine. It's set out like every other Homebase - paints, varnishes, wallpapers, random home accessories, and garden bits downstairs. Bathrooms, kitchens etc on the mezzanine, plants outside. Got a pack of two really comfy wooden recliners for £99! Bargain!

We came here to look at tiles (we were pretty sure we wanted some from topps tiles next door, but it doesn't hurt to look around and check other places first!!) However as this place was massive, and my boyfriend's parents had driven us here, we took advantage of the space in their car, and bought a few other bits and bobs that we really needed. I now have beautiful new bins...and LED light bulbs to brighten up our flat. I really liked the selection of habitat goods...I didn't even know Homebase and habitat worked together until I ventured in here. I don't think I would come back here unless I can borrow a car! There are too many cute things, and I'd never be able to carry them all home on a bus!
