We have recently added the option to have your item shipped via Evri (previously known as Hermes). Their standard service has a stated turnaround time of 2-4 business days, they also offer a next day delivery service. We charge a flat rate of £3 per order for Evri Standard and £4 per order for Evri Next Day. Please remember that delivery time is calculated from the date the item reaches Evri, this could be up to 3 working days in accordance with our stated dispatch times above. Orders over £40 automatically qualify for free shipping. All Evri deliveries are tracked.

Note: We are aware that the quality of the Evri service varies across the country and although their service is usually excellent when delivering here in Fowey, we cannot guarantee that will be the case where you are so please choose your shipping options wisely.

International Shipping

Post Brexit International Shipping has become exceptionally onerous for small businesses, particularly ones like mine which mainly ship domestically. Shipping charges will often vary considerably depending exactly what items are purchased. Your order will be sent via the postage service which most closely matches the amount you have paid for postage. If there is a significant discrepancy we will refund any overpayment and reserve the right to contact you to discuss options in the event of underpayment.

As a small business with minimal margins on our gift products we are unable to absorb shipping costs over and over the amount paid and hope that you will understand this. Unfortunately we are unable to offer a free shipping service internationally.

We will complete the relevant customs forms but will not be responsible for any tax which may be levied for collection within the destination country as this is simply too big and complicated an undertaking for us to deal with when we handle so few international orders. Please make yourself aware of any shipping restrictions pertaining to the destination country. We recommend using this guide before ordering to check that we are able to ship the item you intend to order.
