High end quality products.
I bought a sheepskin rug and also a pair of sheepskin baby booties for my grandson.
We were on holiday in the area and visited here as a treat. It was well worth it.
Highly recommend.

Excellent service. Didn't think I'd find anything I could afford but they were so helpful and dug out a beautiful sheepskin absolutely perfect for what I wanted and very well priced. Will be saving up for more next year. A very happy customer.

Just bought a sheepskin coat and it is amazing. The gentleman that served me was brilliant, knowledgeable and very patient as I tried on quite a few before making a decision. Would highly recommend

We visited the shop with the purpose of buying a Herdwick sheepskin which we knew would match our decor but above all would support a local business.
We were not disappointed with the selection or the great friendly service we received.
We were pleased to be told how to care for our sheepskin and given a comb to do this. More expensive than we anticipated but seems a quality product.
Back home sheepskin perfect and feels warm and cosy on my reading chair.
Thank you.

An absolutely fantastic range of items, all of excellent quality. The owner knows all there is to know about everything in the shop. If you want anything related to sheepskins then this is definitely the place.

Terrible service. Ordered slippers in August, still haven’t received them. Tried to call numerous times but they never answer and don’t respond to emails. We have travelled up to the shop which is over an hour’s drive and the man in the shop assured us he would refund our money the next day and took our details as they didn’t have the slippers in stock (so no idea why we were able to order them online). It’s been three weeks and he hasn’t called us or or issued a refund! So rude. Still no money or slippers!

The lure of the sheepskins was too much. What a range and what lovely options! We popped in for a quick browse and walked out with a new merino sheepskin. The choice of colours and textures, the different qualities and sizes is exceelent. Service in the shop was spot on, too. Letting us know he was there to help but letting us get on until needed.

Staff very helpful and polite. Will return to purchase more items when we visit again.

This place is amazing. We visited 10 years ago and I bought a beautiful pair of sheep-skin wool slippers. Everything they sell is top quality, and these slippers have lasted 10 years, and I wear them A LOT! (Even in summer). Decided it was time to buy a new pair. Although the shop had moved, the same owner manager was there, and we had a great chat. I was not disappointed - they still offered a superb range of quality slippers, and my daughter bought a lovely warm pair of wool gloves. There's no other place like it. Highly recommended!
