The Courtyard Craft Centre

"Wed 15 Dec 2021. Having checked the website we were disappointed that shops advertised as Open were not. Just 3 retail businesses working (and the Pottery Shop reduced as undergoing refit in main courtyard, plus the sweetshop and florist in the house. Services businesses (in their own area) working. Pet Shop not there."

"So disappointed and upset quite honestly about our visit yesterday. Most of the shops were closed, the cafe all I can say about that is rude and unhelpful, never got round to eating anything as not served so walked/wheeled out. It was my daughters birthday so we came with her husband who is in a wheelchair due to having MS, for lunch. However, 1 half of the entrance door was looked and we couldn't fit the wheelchair through. So I called to a waitress asking can she help as we have a wheelchair, she said be right with you, but she proceeded to go in the kitchen and come out with an order of food, she then went on to serve 2 more tables. I was getting cross by now as we were being totally ignored, so I said This is a waste of time, then hey presto she went to get the key so we could come in. Well we sat and waited more customers came in and orders were taken from them. As for us... Still ignored, so we walked out! Not only did this upset my son in law as he felt it was his fault as in a wheelchair, it upset my daughters birthday treat. DISGUSTING!"

"Had a lovely breakfast and cake in the cafe. But as to crafts first it was all closed secondly it had nothing that I call crafts jewellery pottery etc it had bridal shop nails hair .so cafe would have had 5 stars but as you have to rate it overall only two."

"I also attended the hog roast evening and i must say i had a great time. The food was plentiful and very nice with options to go back for more if you wanted to. I don't have a complaint as such but did think the lighting back to the car park could have been better. I do think that complaints about the evening should firstly have be made to those who organised who arranged the evening to clear up any misunderstandings before being voiced here."

"Great place to visit and LOADS of shops selling unique and interesting offerings. A very wide choice from Bridal wear and fashion clothes to Wool and home furnishings, from Witchy curios to Model Trains and Pottery to Therapies and Pets.... how anyone could get bored is beyond me. Also boasting a beautiful Medieval Hall and a lovely restaurant. All great value and all the unit holders are really friendly. Great place to visit and mooch about and pick up an unusual bargain - free parking and dogs welcome - what more could you want? :)"
