The shop and post office were taken over by Popat Godhaniya and Bharti Godhaniya on Monday 16th October 2015. They have already increased the opening hours and are gradually increasing the range of stock and promise to refurbish the shop over time as well. They are keen to hear your views on the shop, including what it sells and when it’s open so either let them know, or post a comment here.

Hi Amanda – Country Kitchen is also planning on doing local home deliveries. Working out the details and putting everything in place as we speak, but we hope to work in conjunction with the Warden Scheme and other community support groups to make this happen. We will also ramp up production of our home cooked meals to be sold in portions, to aid people self-isolating in keeping their immune systems up by eating healthy, freshly cooked meals

I find it hard to get to you when the Post Office is open to collect my signed for deliveries. Is it possible to collect them from the shop after 4.00pm instead? Having that flexibility would be very helpful.

I was looking for the postal collection times on the Post Office page. It would be handy to have them shown.
Thanks
