Tomlinsons

Left the store shocked, and nearly in tears. If the lady working today (Saturday 22nd Jan) around 4:30pm was the owner you need to think before training staff the way you work... and if she is just a member of staff you need to rethink her working for your store. I own a very small business myself and if i had someone working for me with her attitude i would show her where the door is... We entered the store (with a lively 2 year old) i had him as under control as a two year old can be, i was going to wait outside for my Mother who was browsing, until we saw there was a toy section, my son who is obsessed with dinosaurs started playing with a few stuffed dinosaurs which were in a basket (on the floor may i add within a two year olds reach) i allowed him to play with one and made sure the others were left in the basket, if he removed one i put it right back, this member of staff was staring at us the entire time (not in a nice way) she was scowling at my son making me feel extremely anxious, my daughter wanted a set of pencils & i was going to buy my Mum a gift & my son a plate set (equalling around 65) this member of staff continued staring, making facial expressions & making me feel so uncomfortable, so as you can imagine i did not buy a thing from here. My Mum then came to the back and said "we are clearly not wanted here she has not stopped staring lets go" so we left, only to turn and see her staring at us even outside in the street. I went back in without my family to let her know exactly how she made me feel, for her to say "well i was just watching as you weren't watching all the time" never ever have i been judged of my parenting. My son was being watched the entire time in the store, yes he is a typical toddler, but theres no way i would let him run riot or cause an issue. I can safely say i will not be returning. For a small gorgeous little shop that has probably suffered from Covid i really wouldn't treat your customers in such a way, she didn't greet us, didn't ask if we needed help, just stared. Sorry to leave such a negative review, your store is beautiful & has amazing stock, shame the staff don't give off the same look!

First time in this shop and first time even knowing about it. Very lovely little bits in there and something for everyone. Some more expensive bits but equally some less expensive bits. Could have honestly spent a fortune in there. The lady behind the till was very friendly and smiley :) will definitely be back.

I love this village shop and its wonderful stock and reasonable price fashion items. Always first in the door for the summer and winter sale. Friendly, helpful staff - this store is a real gem.
