News & insights

Great old fashioned family run store with a surprisingly large range of products from tvs to toys to trowels (and many other garden implements). Always good prices on electrical goods and free delivery locally (often the same day if you're desperate). If there's anything you need for the home or garden #trywadesfirstmate.

A fabulous family run business that has served the local community for years. They should win an award for the way they have stepped up to the challenge throughout the covid 19 pandemic.

Wades has the most varied stock of any independent shop I know. If there is something they don’t have they will try their best to get it for you. When the Town was in lockdown they delivered free to your door even if you only wanted a bag of screws. Over the years I have made many purchases from Wades, including washing machine, TV, fridge, Dyson vacuum cleaner and various hardware items.
Their service and attention to the smallest detail is second to none. Well done Wades Keep up the good work.

Excellent service, at the beginning of lock down I purchased a washing machine. It was delivered to my back door within two hours, due to the pandemic restriction Wades were unable to enter the house therefore my husband fitted the machine. From purchase to completing first wash about three hours.

Wades is the best kind of local shop, giving superb advice, after service and matched, sometimes bettered prices. Back to the high street for us, Amazon is a secondary choice from here on. Luke is a real gent, and the whole team are brilliant. #trywadesfirstmate
