Just popped in to the toy works with our 23 month old twin boys and 5 year old daughter. Boys were delighted to see the working train in the shop, think they could have happily stayed, lovely to see the workshop too!

I just picked up my farm that I commissioned from the Toy Works and it’s amazing! Such a fab reminder of where I grew up and my son has been playing with it non stop since we collected it. Paul has done an incredible job, his farm brings back amazing memories for me of the real farm, which I didn’t expect! Paul was so patient from the onset, very friendly and listened carefully as I described what the buildings were used for. He was also very patient as I miscounted windows on the old buildings and had to leave numerous messages apologising that I’d got the details wrong! Great service and a gorgeous family toy to keep forever. Thanks so much!

Well worth a visit.
Visited whilst staying the area. More from curiosity than anything else. Found it a fascinating experience with the owner very friendly and knowledgable. Gave me a tip for painting our grandsons wooden castle - thanks. Oh, and I bet you won't leave without spending £4.99....................

Personalised Memory Box
We contacted Paul 2 years ago looking for a personalised, handmade wooden memory box for our grandson's christening and we couldn't have found anyone better. Not only did he build it with loving care to our exact requirements, he delivered it to my parents' house as we couldn't make it up from Lancashire. It is much cherished by and full of photos and cards and memories! Over a year later, we contacted Paul to make another for our next grandson's christening...he made an exact replica in record time...beautifully handcrafted, sending us photos along the way so we could choose lettering at a distance and making it exactly to our requirements. 
An amazing craftsman which is so hard to find and particularly one so keen to make what you want and to see it through your eyes. We'll definitely be back...what a find!!

Treasure trove
Great wee find. The owner was restoring an old wooden rocking horse. There were dolls houses and a vast amount of lovely toys, games plus past treasures.
Well worth a visit. Also recommend the coffee shop in front of it.

A wonderful trip down memory lane for wooden and traditional toy lovers. Despite our kids all being teenagers the owner came up with a wooden toy/trick/magic puzzle which will keep them guessing for ages. Would thoroughly recommend and great to see a business like this these days.

Enthusiastic owner
We came looking for the village bakery & found this excellent toy shop full of beautiful toys, many made by the owner. There were amazing farm sets & dolls houses. The simple propeller game was the biggest hit. Thank you

Paul has just carefully repaired an old toy of my father's, something he had since his childhood and which I remember playing with as a child; sadly Dad died last year. Despite the job being a small one Paul took time to send me photos of work he had done previously and sent me photos and a video of the repaired toy before asking for payment. Excellent service, and I felt confident that my treasured possession was well looked after. I would highly recommend Paul to anybody.

Great little shop selling a range of toys, mainly wooden ones. Some of the toys available are made by the owner including dollhouses and castles made from wood. There is also a little train that runs round the shop which takes a 20p coin to run (as a donation to charity).
