Straightforward booking and plenty of choice.

I cannot comment on the experience itself as it has not yet been taken. However the booking procedure was straightforward and there was plenty of choice, so I was very happy with this. It is a welcome change to have plenty of experiences to choose from in this part of the country! (Yorkshire).

Great experience and excellent customer service

Great experience and excellent customer service. I had made a note for the package to be delayed in being sent out so that it arrived nearer to the actual birthday. Rachel confirmed this is all good and even suggested putting a do not open until (date) on it. Fabulous idea. Thank you

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for us, it is much appreciated. Just to reply to your comment, where an order is placed and the buyers address and the delivery address is the same we always address the package to the buyer in case they want to intercept the parcel and keep it until they are ready to give it on the actual date of the birthday or whatever the occasion may be. Because we can't provide an exact date for delivery this usually helps our customers out. Sorry that you thought this was a mistake. Best wishes Rachel.

Brilliant selection of gifts

Easy to use website, really good selection of things to do. You'd be hard pressed not to find something for even the most awkward of people! Found a lovely gift experience for my very sporty friend who was delighted with it.

Very happy with purchase

Very happy with purchase, hope my husband is when he actually goes for this pottery experience.
Great communication when I had queries re details and was dealt with straightaway.
If this is a success when completed, then 100% will look to buying other things on offer

Buying gift vouchers

As the gift I was looking for had to be acceptable to this so difficult context of the pandemic I knew my son-in-law would value supporting a local business.

From the clear title to the descriptions of experiences offered this company fitted the requirements.

The facility for the recipient to choose what would be best not only according to taste but our current situation in lockdown convinced me to purchase.

The buying experience was simple and the gift pack I know has arrived safely.
