Charlie's rock shop might rock your world (ehem...sorry.)…read more Charlie (at least I assume the bloke behind the till was *the* Charlie) was happy and friendly even though we wandered in on a horrible rainy day. My friend wanted to come here because she bought her favourite pair of earrings here yeears ago...so we came in for a bit of a mooch. This place is full of interesting jewellery- some of it was gorgeous/ some of it was not really to my taste. BUT Jewellery is always a very personal thing to choose - so maybe other yelpers'd like the things I cringed at. There was also a large selection of different minerals and gemstones for sale...so this place would make any collector of stones happy. I bought a couple of pairs of pearl earrings with Stirling silver backs (for £6 each!!) and left very happy.

I love a visit to Charlie's Rock shop. Unfortunately for Charlie and his crew I don't buy much and…read morewhen I do I don't spend much, but hopefully this honest assessment of why this is one of the best shops in the local area will go some way to redress the balance of the joy I receive from a visit and Charlie's profit line. This shop will show you some beautiful geology. They have items from £2 to £200 of sheer beauty. Gorgeous necklaces, rings and other jewellery is available. This is a great place to buy rocks to make jewellery with. I have taken a few friends here to Charlie's Rock shop. They have always bought something and loved the store. A fair few have returned without me. So I have done something good apart from this review Charlie!!!

Family owned business offering good, reliable service. They carry a range of jewelry, clocks and…read morewatches as well as collectable items for gifts, such as Myth and Magic figures, Pocket Dragons etc. Watches can be fitted with new batteries, often while you wait. Some repairs are carried out on site and others can be sent away for repair and it is possible to arrange for items to be engraved. There is some parking just outside the parade of shops and it is just around the corner from the shoppers car park. It is a very small shop, with a step up into it, so does not have the easiest access for disabled shoppers, although there is always a chair available for anyone who needs to sit while waiting.

The same style watch in one of the larger, well known chain of jewellery shops was three times the price! The delivery was quick and packaging/delivery good so now Sarah Beth's is my first port of call. I don't often write reviews but felt in this instance I did have to comment. Many thanks.

I had to sign up to review this shop because I think the world deserves to know just how amazing…read morethe service is here not to mention having some of the most beautiful jewellery I have ever seen. We first went in to look for an engagement ring and were served by Mr Graham, the owner of the shop. He was so charming and so knowledgeable, I felt so special. Needless to say I am now wearing the most beautiful, unique ring that I simply adore. I feel like we paid a really fair price and am confident that that my ring is very good quality. I would recommend this shop to anyone and since we've discovered he does repairs and alterations too, we;ve become true regulars.
