Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Unable to visit the shop due to lockdown restrictions, I however managed to contact the owner Greg Powell, what a fabulous service !!!. I wanted a bespoke piece of jewellery for my daughters 30th Birthday. I spoke to Greg with a couple of ideas and the need for the piece to be individual/personal, gave him an estimate of my budget and a couple of photo ideas. Communication was fantastic, Greg kept me updated throughout, being a specialist in the field Greg guided me with the different options. Greg had a tight timescale to work with and still managed to produce the goods 2 days early. My daughter is now the proud owner of a beautiful handmade gold bangle with a dangling heart, with a very personal script engraved message inside. Both she and I love the end result. As an added extra Greg took photos/short videos of the process so that she was able to see her beautiful heart bangle being made, which added to it being a special gift. If this wasn’t enough, I couldn’t believe it when the bangle actually came in under budget. I certainly wouldn’t use any other Jeweller. Shop local with a local family and I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed. Thank you so much Greg @Loweandsons

Visited this gem of a shop yesterday on the hunt for a gold chain on which to hang my late mum’s wedding ring.
We popped in quickly as we had a lunch reservation and were asked by Cathy if we were happy for her to source suitable chains and to return after lunch to see if any were suitable.
This we did. She had spent her timing finding what was to be the perfect chain.
I wanted a vintage piece to compliment the age of my mum’s ring and this shop was the answer.
Thank you to Cathy for her excellent service and a shout out to Jonathan who kindly unknotted the chain of the pearl necklace I was wearing.
First class service. Thank you Lowe and sons.
