Visited the shop recently, very friendly & engaging owner who allowed us to browse the shop leisurely without pouncing or being pushy, but on hand with excellent & honest advice when we clearly were torn between 2 similar items. No pressure to buy, more than happy to walk away to sleep on the decision. Then arranged delivery of the large chest of draws when we finally made our choice. Shop has a wide & extensive range of antiques & interesting pieces, well worth a visit - parking outside the door available too!

Met an ex work colleague for lunch here and it’s a lovely place to shop for fine foods and eat in the cafe or restaurant upstairs. Not cheap but well presented fresh meals served by pleasant staff. I just had a smoked salmon & cream cheese sandwich with a side order but my friend had one of the daily specials of sea bream. Both dishes were superb and the deserts were irresistible. Great surroundings and will return soon to buy some specialities for my guests over Christmas.

We had a lovely time in the paint your own pottery section with Cathy who was lovely and patient! My step daughter has a learning disability and isn't comfortable everywhere, but Cathy was relaxed and not pushy with her so she thoroughly enjoyed it! There were a lot of different pottery shapes to choose from, including a great Halloween pumpkin plaque. There were letters of the alphabet which stand up and do Alex chose one for her Dad. Cathy has lots of colours to chose from and aprons to keep clean!!! The paint dried quickly so we went to the handmade chocolate shop and by the time we had strolled back to the pottery it was dry and ready to take home. We will definitely be going back to paint something else. We ended up at Taurus Crafts for a good couple of hours as we had some lunch in the cafe and also went to our favourite hippy shop, Indigo, which is full of lovely gifts, some clothes, scarves and bags and amazing smelling soaps and bath bombs!! We always find presents there for people of all ages! I'd definitely recommend it if you are visiting the Forest on a wet day as there's lots to look at, do and buy! It's also right by Coinross garden centre so I think there's something for everyone there!!
