Review of Mars Knitwear


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Mars Knitwear - warm hugs

Ordered from Mars Knitwear after seeing them listed in Patrick Grant's book - LESS which has a list of British makers everything from furniture, clothing to glassware.
I chose Mars as they are less than 2miles away and looked like they had cosy jumpers with a decent range of colours and styles.
I ordered 5 jumpers, having in mind to keep just 2 or maybe 3. I kept 4, and only because I didn't think the colour of the 5th suited me.
I put them on and they we were so cosy/comfortable. They were like warm hugs.
I've not worn or washed them yet as it's August.... but I'm looking forward to it.
I also have my eye on a Winter themed jumper.... winter jumper is for life, not just for Christmas :-)
I had to exchange an item and the people were friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend.

I love the idea of giving to charity…

I love the idea of giving to charity but being able to win something in a draw. Hiw much the charity receives, as a minimum amount and overall % is all clearly laid out beforehand so you know what you're buying into.

Review of Campings Sandaya


Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The information about the campsites etc…

The information about the campsites etc is very clear, detailed and videos are also welcome addition. The offers and T&Cs are also clear and available at key stages if the booking process.
However, when booking online it would have good to be able to book more than one stay simultaneously as opposed to having separate order numbers etc, and to make sure all the accommodation is available at the same time.
Before booking I asked a question via the contact form and within 10mins someone called me back- excellent response time.
I was a little apprehensive after booking as it said it needed to be confirmed by the camp site first, but they responded the next working day and the day after for the second booking. So relatively quick.
Just need to book a ferry now it's been confirmed.
Overall very happy so far and look forward to our stay in Summer 2022.
