Lovely theme but expensive and poor quality

I think the whole herdy sheep theme is lovely and love the use of the herdy sheep wool in pillows, mattresses etc. However I feel all the products are overpriced. The wool pillows don't last long at all regardless of the aftercare (pulling the wool apart in the pillow etc). They compress and go flat extremely quickly with no time guarantee on purchase which I feel there should be for the cost. The mugs are lovely but expensive and are not dishwasher safe. Our favourite thing to purchase from the shop was the family planner/organiser which my children loved! But now they've discontinued as apparently couples had complained it doesn't suit them. A bit of a shame. And lastly the customer service received in the shops is usually below par. Not very friendly or welcoming.

I've bought them for niece's babies as they have animal and farming links, and Herdys are a bit special.

Bought ‘seconds’ from Great Yorkshire show. First time used Sunday morning once driven back to Scotland and it’s split top to base scalding husbands fingers. Seconds should be glazing issues or blips in surface not Unusable at £10 each. Awaiting your reply.

Not dishwasher safe so don't buy

Nice looking mugs, stamped on the base saying dishwasher and microwave compatible
However when you get home and take out the cardboard cuff inside the mug, it states that the mug can only be cleaned in the dishwasher occasionally and with delicate cleaning materials
Not sure what trading standards would make of these two opposing statements

Lovely, quirky items

I really like the Herdy items. Always good quality and lovely designs. Having said that, there were errors in my recent order, but I had a very quick response from customer service and it should hopefully be rectified soon.
Update: great service, all sorted out very quickly by customer service!

Missing a trick

We were visiting Hawkshead for a family anniversary and went to the shop in Windermere as we wanted to buy another ewe to accompany the orange one we already have. We bought a green one and once again are delighted with the product, the staff in the shop were very helpful and friendly. I do feel that you need to add a pair to the range ie a Ewe and a Tup together as they would look great together

Herdy theme!!!

I love visiting your shops when up in the lakes with my daughter and her family, staying in her holiday lodge which she always has great pleasure in showing me her latest purchase from your shop to add a herdy feel to her lodge…. Kitchen, bedrooms, lounge and even the entrance which starts the theme off !!!! Super friendly staff too and so nice to read you are such a supportive company to the local areas around you !!after signing up for your news letters to keep up dated with new products and what’s going on too. Well done 👏🏻

Products always make us smile

We love purchasing Herdy items and when in the Lakes we always have to visit the shops. Recently we have purchased Christmas decorations and some stocking fillers. Always find the quality of the products is brilliant and the designs make everyone in the family smile.

Came across the shop in Kendall by chance. What an absolute joy! The lady running the shop was very welcoming and explained the products to me with great patience and enough humor for it not to feel like a heavy sell. Bought a superb English-made bone china mug that features my favorite breed of sheep and my tea now never tasted so good! Will be back again soon 😁

Absolutely LOVE Herdy

Absolutely LOVE Herdy - I have been to the shop in Kendal and it's lovely. All the products are beautiful - difficult to not buy one of everything ! I have had loads of nice comments about Herdy things - especially my handbag. The "Hello Ewe" welcome mat is adorable - yet more comments from visitors to my home. Herdy is super special and make great gifts for every occasion. Unique. Thank you.

Herdy mattress - simply the best!

We stayed at my sister's a couple of months ago and slept on a Herdy mattress for a week. We were so impressed that we immediately bought one! We are so pleased with it, it is extremely comfortable.
The lady in customer services was very helpful and pleasant when we were placing the order.
Thank you!

Very disappointed as the customer service didn’t satisfactorily deal with my complaint and no goodwill evident

Please note you are not to use a dishwasher with their cups you have to purchase a special cleaner otherwise they badly stain and their way of dealing with my complaint was a lecture on the phone and only concern for The Herdy Co and theirs or maybe Lisa’s in customer service adamant strict process for the company as that’s literally how it felt and I have an email from Lisa ‘ I am sorry you were left disappointed by your situation and hope that you will continue to be of our customers !!! All I can say is highly unlike Lisa

Hello Gilly,
Thank you for leaving a review.
As we state on our website, our mugs are suitable for occasional dishwasher use. However, we do recommend hand washing to keep your Herdy mug looking its best.
We recommend removing stains with ‘Bar Keepers Friend', a natural, plant-based cleaner available from most hardware stores and supermarkets.
We successfully removed the marks that were on the mugs that you returned to us by using this product.
Again, we are very sorry you were left disappointed.
