My thanks to Carl Ashley Electrical Services Ltd for your kind help and support given. My electrics cut out on Sunday evening, I was so relieved to have Carl Ashley Electrical Services respond immediately to my call. Carl took time to listen understand and guide me through the process for me to be able to restore my electrics to power and to identify that the cause was to do with my aging oven. How appreciative I am for Carl's help and support given. I am pleased to ask Carl Ashley Electrical Services to attend advise quote and carry out my necessary Oven replacement works. Thank you for your help. Sue

I can fully endorse Carl Ashley Electrical Services, I recently enquired about a domestic electrical installation which needed replacement and Carl completed this work for me to a first class standard. Throughout his time completing the work at our property both Carl and his assistant were very professional, courteous, respectful and diligent in their approach to the job at hand, they explained the work and product installed clearly to me and left everything very clean and tidy. Five Star Service and Recommend Highly!

Carl is always friendly, reliable, very professional and knowledgeable electrician. He always goes to that extra length to produce top quality work. His work ethic is second to none. He is punctual and leaves the place tidy after he is done. The trainees under him are also very professional and strive for excellence. I always have had a great experience of calling Carl and he is my go to electrician.

Carl and his apprentice came out today to fix a problem with the bathroom lights. Not only did they fix the issue quickly but then checked the other lights for issues. They were smart, tidy and even hoovered up a a little bit of dust that was generated. Would definitely recommend

My husband and I ate at the Golden Fox after reading great reviews on the food, the staff and the facilities. We were not disappointed. Absolutely fantastic food. Wonderful staff and spotlessly clean facilities. The whole place had a wonderful ambiance which only enhanced the whole experience. They were also very welcoming of our dog Max.

The welcome, service, food and presentation were all of the very best. We had dinner here last time and this was a lunch visit. Our friends were obliged to bring their very difficult and antisocial dog. Nothing was too much trouble with the staff. . Everything was very good indeed

This was our first visit and we were very impressed. The fish platter had a most interesting selection of fish and was beautifully presented . The service was most friendly and courteous. Our only negative comment was that the garden , where we ate, could have been tidied up with some more colourful bushes.

We picked the Golden Fox after reading reviews and we were not disappointed. I felt the bar area was a little dark, but we were soon accommodated in the restaurant. Really good to see that the restaurant is a no dog zone. The menu is not extensive but with the daily specials there should be something for everyone. It's worth noting they do not have a children's menu but modify some of the menu items to make a child's portion. Our 11 year old Granddaughter made short work of the adult 8 oz steak! The food was very well cooked and presented and portions were generous. Staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive. For the quality and portion sizes, the prices were good A great new find to add to our list of "must returns"

I’ve tried their bonbons and chocolate bars and they are absolutely delicious. Beautifully made. I love that each month there’s different bonbon flavours. There’s so many flavours of chocolate bars, it’s so hard to pick as they all sound delicious. I’ve bought bonbons and chocolate bars as postal gifts for people. Everyone that I’ve sent a box to have given positive feedback. I love the packaging as well! I’ve spoken to the owners Anna and Dan a few times on Instagram and they are lovely! 100% would recommend! Whether it’s a treat for yourself or a gift for someone.

If you’re thinking about ordering from The Little House just do it! Not only are their products delicious and such good quality, but they do a monthly selection of 4 chocolate bonbon flavours which allows you to try new interesting flavours and combinations. Anna and Dan are an amazing Duo which provide great customer service plus attention to detail including a hand written note with most orders!

Top class chocolates! The detail & flavour from these chocolates are just gorgeous. I ordered the September collection online & I live in Southern Ireland, they arrived so quickly! All of the flavours were pungent & in depth with flavour! You can tell that the best ingredients have been used. My favourite was the coffee ganache & almond cake layer “opera” it was like a symphony itself . The lemon marshmallow is incredible too! Highly recommend! Very tempted to order their unique Christmas advent calendar choccies that is shown on their Instagram , thanks Anna & Dan.

I’m a big fan of The Little House’s chocolate, regularly ordering their amazing themed bonbons in the post. The chocolates are always made with vibrant and original flavours. They’re beautifully made and packaged with care. Such a joy to receive them!

I had an issue with my electric sockets in my house which happened over night and I was having an issue to find the cause/source for the problem. After long day at work it was challenge to get some one to come around to fix. I "googled" found this SES LTD. When called spoken to Jonathan who patiently listened to my story and explanation of events and what I tried so far. He kindly gave me some further guidance and advice what else to try and after 2 more calls over the next 20 min we found the cause. Jonathan does not know me and I didn't know him, however he treated me like he is just a friend who would happily to help out when needed. He didn't even ask for money. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Installation of a Hypervolt Home 3 pro ev charger. Right from the start I found Jim to have the attitude to wanting to help. My charger installation was not straightforward. Jim spent time explaining my options to me, explaining the pro & cons of a few different charging units that suited my requirements. I had very limited space to fit equipment into my power cabinet, but Jim took extra time & thought to rearrange to accommodate the new equipment. Resulting in a neat & tidy job. The external cable & the charger unit was fitted exactly as discussed & cosmetically looks good. A professional job. After installation ,Jim spent time to explain how everything worked & once I was happy completed the handover. I would definitely recommend Jim if you are looking for tidy professional electrician who takes pride in his work.

Jim was so friendly and approachable, after speaking to a few electricians Jim’s prices were competitive. Jim did an amazing job installing our EV Charger, when we were stuck with the app Jim helped us even though it was late in the evening and we would 100% use him again in the future. If you’re deciding on an electrician Jim is the way forward. Thank you for all your help & knowledge!

This is a little gem of a place! We sat outside in the sun and ordered several items off the menu. The team were all charming and helpful and the food was fast and tasty. The farmers plate, shakshuka and brioche breakfast buns were all fabulous. The smoothies were perfectly balanced - not too sweet and the cakes are 10/10. Our new fave spot! Be sure to get there before the kitchen closes at 3!

Outstanding experience. Super scrumptious food, excellent service, perfect atmosphere and really stylish. Homemade hummus (part of the mezze plate) was great and the pork and apple sausage roll (part of the farmers platter) was on another level. Truly wonderful. What more can one say? If you're in the area go and visit, you won't be disappointed.

I booked an afternoon tea for 8 of us for a 50th birthday treat. Communication before the day was very good and the actual afternoon tea was amazing, very fresh with a great variety of sandwickes and cakes. The team went above and beyond to ensure we were all very well looked after, bringing us extra sandwiches and tea! I would highly recommend this lovely cafe overlooking the river for afternoon tea.

Yup, the good reviews are on point. Gavin & his team did a full rewire of my house, and every aspect of working with him was A1. Starting with a detailed and fair quote; he made great suggestions that I hadn't thought of; the works, and communications were done well and on time; he was flexible to changes in my plans....generally speaking, he has a great attitude, so all-in-all I could relax and trust that the job was in good hands.
