A pottery studio where we teach you to paint as part of our standard service. We help you do everything and want you to be happy with what you have created. So we don't leave you alone to cope with babies or toddlers, or to try and teach your children . We help you every step of the way. We have lively parties with dancing and painting, for children and adults alike !! We are very proud of our 20 years of doing baby footprints in Brighton and the fact that many of our customers return again and again. We have paint pots because we love people, we want to teach them how to paint, and we want them to leave feeling happy.

Had an amazing afternoon for our friends birthday! Vicky was very helpful and informative, she made sure we knew everything about different pottery painting techniques to make sure each one of us would be happy with their result! Such an affordable activity for hours of fun, came home the week after with a beautiful vase I was very proud of! Thank you again, we will be back!

A wonderful morning making fudge in Oxford with Joe as our instructor. We had a great time making it for my wife’s birthday and Joe and Oshin in the shop were so welcoming, knowledgeable and we had a great laugh during the session. It’s great fun and so nice to taste their lovely flavours - and hope that yours comes out as good as theirs. Highly recommend as it was well worth the money and the venue puts on a great show, too!

Beautiful fresh Ice Cream, my late Husband, Dee loved the raison & rum Ice Cream, always kept the tub for himself ???? He really wanted to take our baby Grandson this summer 2020 to enjoy the play area & enjoy the gorgeous fresh ice-cream, he would have loved it. Sadly we lost Dee in November 2019 but I will definately take Riaan and his Mum & Dad to this place & we will enjoy the great choice of fresh flavours available to enjoy

The sweetest place to be in Windsor since 1998. We hand-make the best fudge in the world, using a 200-year-old recipe. It’s all gluten free, completely natural and doesn’t contain any nasty palm oil or preservatives. We even make the best vegan fudge you’ve ever tasted. Watch fudge being made in our kitchen every day between 11-4 and taste some fresh off the slab! If you’re a true fudge fanatic, you can even come for a Fudge Making Experience (please call ahead to check availability).

A visit to this shop is a ritual I have every time I visit my family Windsor (which can be often)! Met the lovely Henry this time - I think it's safe to say we tried every flavour (maybe some twice!) My fave this time has got to be the Salted Caramel & the Darch Chocolate Orange (which was warm as freshly made) The Eton Mess is going down a storm in my office as I write this review!! Henry is definitely an asset to this wee shop - a bonus for me was finally getting to meet Dexter the Cat!

Watch fresh whipping cream fudge made in store to an authentic 1800's recipe using original hand craft methods and try a free sample hot off the marble slab. Vegetarian and dairy intolerant/vegan friendly flavours available.

This is the best fudge I have ever eaten! Soft and gooey inside. I bought the salted caramel - amazing. The owners are very friendly and give great recommendations of flavours. Wish I lived closer!

The cafe "Fennel" here is a lovely independant clean bright place, with plenty of seating indoors and outdoors if the weather permits. Serving a variety of freshly baked homemade cakes, cheese and apple chutney scones (delicious), freshly made soup and other dishes, Coffees, tea and a refreshing mint drink, a fresh mint sprig in hot water with clear honey to taste, very refreshing and healthy too, this is a little known charming place you must visit for a drink and a bite to eat after an alpaca trek, or just to eat a lovely place.

Gus is a super friendly and welcoming guy, and his shop is a gem!! I'm lucky enough to live locally, so pop in regularly to browse his discounted 1st class stamps (..cheaper than the Post Office)! Even if you're just in Brighton for the day, make sure to swing by! He has stamps relating to all interests (from Bowie to Ancient Greece) and for all occasions.

Me and my partner found this lovely glass shop in the village where a lovely lady and her lovely dog lily were waiting to welcome customers with a positive vibe and catching smile. She made us feel at home and had long conversations. Our needs were satisfied with what we wanted and she even went the extra mile with my special design for my partner. She always makes you feel at home and can have decent conversations. This shop is a small gemstone in a little village where you can find gifts for all your needs even with workshops that are being held to get people to experience how it to work with glass. This is definitely a place to pop into if you find your self to be in the village. A big 10 for service and hospitality from our side and thanks again for the hard work and effort.
