A brilliant little kit
A brilliant little kit - the fixings kit. Not yet used as the birthdays are at the weekend, but looks fab - especially excited about the 3 hole rubber to create a tripod type thing! Arrived promptly, and well packaged with zero plastic.

Fast efficient ordering and delivery
Fast efficient ordering and delivery. I haven't looked at the den kit properly yet as it's a gift for my granddaughter, so I don't want to unpack it, but if the quality of the bag is anything to go by it will be great 😊

Beautiful products
Beautiful products, really thoughtfully put together by people who really care about and believe in the benefits of being outdoors. A million stars to you lovely people. I've had two den kits that are well used and well loved and have just purchased the potion and natural dye kits for Christmas.

Delivery was quick, and packaging was all eco friendly ( no plastic ). My girls have a den kit from years ago, and I'm so glad that there are now more kits for them to choose from. These make a lovely gift for birthdays or Christmas.
