We stumbled across this place by accident yesterday and found it to be a really fun place to browse around. In contrast to the previous review, while I did note that the owners have a Bentley and that many of the things they sell are reproductions etc I do believe that they offer a real service, are helpful in meeting your needs and they do have some antiques which are labeled as such. We have a fun time and came home with about 700 pounds of items (not a single antique!) and are happy with what we got. Will be back but will look elsewhere for a bigger selection of true antiques. read more

See all

I've been visiting this site for a few years now, and I must say it just appears like a tiny amount of legitimate antiques are maintained at astronomical prices - possibly because they aren't there to be sold? The same barometers and grandfather clocks have been there for years. It is sadly flooded with strange derivative furniture and accessories (like fake Louis Vuitton bookends, moet and chandon cushions, and new, but made to look old, Coca Cola accessories which I'm sure are on a bit of a rocky standing legally...) New in is the weird 'fake antique' Peaky Blinders stuff that seems to be drowning every vintage store these days. Look, the place is really fine and potentially good to look around, sometimes you might find a nice piece in there, however marketing itself as an antique centre of sorts is not really justified. It is 75% new stock and a few magnificent, but over-priced, antiques. Lots of good reclaimed garden furniture but again, the prices are painful in constrast to local reclaimation sites. read more

If you're only interested in some vastly overpriced, low quality and flimsy pieces of furniture that are purely for show, and no chance of withstanding any amount of storage etc. this is your place. Oh, and don't expect a full or in depth explanation of the pieces either, you'll be wasting your time. Quite frankly I think its fairly misleading to have it signposted by the LA as an antiques establishment Now I don't mean to say they don't have any antiques they do but the vast majority are just cheap reproductions, praying on the fact that most people won't know/ask/care whether they are genuine antiques or not. Just ask whether they will get any more 'like it' and you'll be told they'll 'order it in' hardly 'antique' If you only want something that 'looks old' then shop around online, there are plenty to choose from at 1/3 of the price unless of course you want to contribute towards the owners next Bentley I have been importing such things from the far east for years, and know the difference. There, my public deed, such as it is, is done. read more
