I got there just after 9 O'clock so it was very quiet, just as I like it. The car park had plenty of spaces, and most of the shops were open, thankfully Card Warehouse because that's the one I needed. The cleaner was mopping the floor by the entrance/exit, so naturally no-one took any notice to avoid the bit she …
A very pleasant shopping centre with a good selection of shops. The area feels nice and welcoming, and it’s a good place for shopping and spending time with family.
Plenty of shops to choose from and very clean and tidy and plenty of places to eat. We ate upstairs in Pad Thai Live which I have reviewed separately. Worth a visit if you are in the area.
Has many shops and little stalls The Range is wonderful as is cotton Traders Tresspass there are a few interesting food outlets and much more to explore
Visited a few stores here and let me tell you. You got the best dental service and care at SMIL, delicious treat at Pad Thai and good quality household products at Homeplus furniture.
I love the centre. But really sad that my favourite shop is closing 😢 it called the gift company as it is a good place to lower your anxiety and buy beautiful things. …
More & more food places. Great for a few bits & pieces if you don’t want the bigger shops
This is a large outlet area which sadly is so large many people miss half of it. A few shops have closed but there is a good variety of shops still open. My favourite is M&S which has a great selection of mens/womens and childrens clothes. Also stocks towels/flannels. Plus other items. Plenty of places to eat.

Great value with so much to see & do. Annual pass is around £36 allowing as much access as you like. Site covers 81 acres & offers something for everyone. We went on the submarine Ocelot & a couple of other ships. Wasn't the best day to visit but most of the exhibits are under cover. The Victory wasn't here …
