Found one of our tyres was losing pressure. Just turned up on the off-chance they could help. They were very accommodating and fixed it while we walked into the village and had lunch. All sorted when we got back. Nothing too much trouble. 5*

Brilliant service. A metal piece had fallen off my car whilst on holiday. They fitted me in at short notice, removed the metal and refitted the engine cover for a very reasonable price. Knowledgable and helpful staff. They saved my holiday.

hiDespite being busy, couldn't have been most helpful & understanding regarding damaged tyre & wheel rim. Sets a very high bench mark for other garages to aspire to in expertise and customer service .

Great service. They were able to solve my electrical problems caused by mice damage and water leakage. The previous garage did not solve it. I can highly recommend them.
