Having recently taken up the sport of Bowls, I found nowhere in the coastal area of Kent selling…read morethe necessary equipment, until I came across Tony Wilson in his 'hidden away' shop in Hythe. The man seemed to know his stuff and I confirmed that when asking around club members. He was extremely helpful, even to the extent of allowing my partner to try woods before purchase. Not only bowls wear here either. I enjoyed a superb experience recently when looking for an item myself. A Dad came in to the shop with young son to choose his first cricket bat. Tony, the shopkeeper, talked the lad through the important job of sizing correctly, etc. and the boy left the shop bursting with joy. Took me back some years! I'll certainly be back for equipment, soon,and checking his website. I've also noted the shop handles a lot of raquets, with 'no strings attached', worth remembering. Difficult to get these restrung anywhere south of Maidstone!

Visited this shop last week for bowls equipment. They have a reasonable selection of Bowls Wear and…read moreBowls for sale. They didn't have what we wanted in stock, they took our order and managed to have goods delivered 6 days later. I was very happy with the service and expect to use them again in the future.

I have used them for repairs to many pairs of shoes, and sometimes when it was just a small job, bit of glue or something they have not charged me.

The layout of the store is a little confusing, as per expectations in most B&Qs, but it's possible to find your way around. What I have discovered, though, is that they are often, infuriatingly, out of the one item I need. If I need a toilet-flush handle, they'll have toilet seats, toilet-roll holders, toilet brushes, but not the one thing I need. That could just be my luck, though - and the staff there have always been very friendly, with the management (and this is something extremely rare in my experience) being sensible with their returns policy. Recommended for any serious DIYer.

However last Christmas I was given a Helly Hanson base layer by a relative that was purchased from this shop. Unfortunately the top was the wrong size, I went back to the shop to exchange with the debit card receipt but the staff were extremely rude and they refused to exchange the item because we did not have the till receipt despite the fact the item was clearly purchased at the store. This year I returned to the store to buy a relative a ski helmet as a gift. The girls in the store were totally uninterested in serving me, when I explained that I would like to buy the helmet as a gift but would need the option of returning if it was the wrong size I was abruptly told that this was not an option. Whilst the shop offers a good range of products and historically we have found the service to be good our recent experience has been very disappointing and if you expecting any level of polite service or customer care go elsewhere.
