I was looking for a present for my wife…

I was looking for a present for my wife and with the help of the sales lady in the shop found the perfect bag. And yes, luckily she loves it! Great shop and great service. So good to find a British brand doing things so well. Thanks, I'll be back!

Designed really well - value for money

I really love my products, I purchased the borg cross-body bag and a few other items. The quality is really great, there are really useful design features that aren't common around this price point, like the sturdy structure, durable zips, lots of hidden pockets. Plus being borg, it's really cosy! The inner lining is great, I actually spilt a bottle of water inside it and I managed to pour it out without the product soaking up loads of water. Great stuff!

Kindness is at the heart…

Caroline Gardner say kindness is at the essence of everything they do and I really believe this. I managed to send them a return by mistake and Connie went out of her way to contact me and help me get my parcel to the right place. I must also highlight the most beautiful leopard glasses case which I purchased that came beautifully wrapped and brings a smile to my face everytime I get it out from my bag. I highly recommend Caroline Gardner for not only their beautiful products but excellent customer service ✨

Customer services not interested in…

Customer services not interested in your feedback
I explained that the lettering on a personalised wash bag is obscured by the pattern. They were not interested in or understanding of the issue

Fantastic experience

I bought a couple of presents and birthday cards from their website a couple of weeks ago and changed my mind of one of them after placing the order. Customer services were amazingly helpful and I absolutely love the gifts, it's just a shame I have to give them away!

Superb company to deal with in every way!

My wife bought an address book from Caroline Gardner but unfortunately it sustained a little damage in transit. This was her first purchase from them and, as it was intended as a gift, she contacted Caroline Gardner who replied back straight away and resolved the issue to my wife's 100% satisfaction.Their customer service couldn't be friendlier or more professional, and we heartily recommend them. Their prices are very competitive, their range impressive and my wife has already bought more products from them!
