There are many interesting and attractive things which I haven't seen anywhere else. I could have browsed here for hours. The two ladies serving today were very friendly and helpful and even gave me a discount on one of the items I bought because it didn't have the price on the back. I will be back there again before long and Christmas shopping here is a must!

On a business trip to Swansea I was reading through one of those tourist magazines that listed…read morelocal goings on. I stumbled upon an article about the Glynn Vivian. I decided to check the local flavor out before heading to London. They were also showing a special exhibit that I was curious about from NS Harsha. It did not disappoint!! I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the building is inside. They have added in modern comforts such as temperature controls and lifts but still maintain an old elegance and the lighting of the skylights created a peaceful ambience. The entire space lends itself to contemplation and I could see myself bringing a book and curling up on one of the couches and reading for a bit. The gallery is free but donations are encouraged and welcome. I really enjoyed my time there. Unlike most of my museum experiences as a tourist, the GV was pretty empty. It was peppered with some locals and visitors like myself. But it allowed me to quietly contemplate what I was seeing in front of me. Something I usually don't get to do as I get herded from room to room. What I really loved about this place though is the copious amounts of seating available. It actually encouraged me to sit and look at the art. I even sat and watched a video on a Welsh artist Kyffin Williams who is amazing. There is a small cafe with drinks and snacks if you need a nibble. This is a local treasure and I hope they are continued to be supported by the people of Swansea and visitors that stumble upon it.

I really like going to visit the Glynn Vivian. I love the antique glass and porcelain. Full of…read morethings I could look at every day. Also interesting exhibitions.

You can top up all your electric phones gas etc. Fairly recently a spar has opened across the road, which no doubt has put strain on herbies, also the council have messed up the whole of king street, bolarding off the sides so no-one can park, making it impossible to park and quickly nip in places. I feel really sorry for long standing businesses like herbies, and hope they can continue to stay open when there constantly seems to be so much against them! a lot of shops did close after the council messed it all up. But long live herby's!

There were a lot of bargains on offer at the time - they frequently have sales and reductions. It's possible to find furniture at less than you would pay in most other stores (and I checked a lot of them before settling on this one). It's a huge, well lit, shop with all the furniture laid out in attractive groups, to appear as they would look in a home setting. Definitely recommended.

I find the store to be handy for buying some pet food and garden accessories such as parts for greenhouses. Located on two floors there are a lot of products on offer. A lot of products are cheaply priced. Cons: Although they have a large variety of stock a lot of products are Wilkinson's own make which are not necessarily as good quality as your named brands.
