5.00An amazing attraction! Austin made our tour and experience extra special by explaining the history behind the chocolate factory more engaging. We got to try plenty of chocolates along the way as well!! I booked the Truffle rolling tour as well, meaning we made our own chocolates and got to experience a live demonstration on how some of the chocolates were produced! The shop is also a must-see! The chocolates are incredible and are very high quality! The chocolates in the mini-fridge next to the till are beautiful! I'd recommend doing the tour and truffle rolling, or just popping in and buying some chocolates!!
Great class, chocolate and store.

4.00Fairly pricey i thought however chocolate tastes amazing and was quite fun making your own, Sam who led ours made it really interesting and fun, possibly more aimed at older kids but we still had good time as adults.

5.00The kids really enjoyed it, and I liked how the teacher interacted with everyone. I learnt a lot and have really enjoyed the chocolate we made although I've not managed to eat it all yet…

5.00Began with an informative talk on the chocolate making process, including an opportunity to taste plain and milk chocolate before making own bar to take home. Group size quite small so not waiting around for a long time. Had a choice of chocolate type, toppings and moulds. Found using a hair drier was a surprisingly quick and efficient method to melt the chocolate. Could collect finished chocolate bar after a 30 min wait. Very well organised and an enjoyable experience,
Lovely day

5.00Went on this experience with my wife and two children (6 and 3) and we all had a great time. We enjoyed the introduction explaining the chocolate making process as well as the tasting samples, my 6 year old thinks he's an expert now! Then there was a great variety of flavourings and ingredients to add to our own chocolate once we got stuck. All four bars made were delicious and didn't last long once we got them back!
Chocolate you can’t go wrong !
