Absolutely shocking customer service.
The lady at the desk was extremely rude and unhelpful.

She gave us no direction on where to go or how to pay.

We ended up leaving with our children.
She completely ruined our day.

Great place for a youngster who loves collecting stones and fossils. Our 6year old grandson really enjoyed his visit.

Very fun! We drove an hour to Ambleside after seeing the shop on TikTok. It was relatively quiet when we visited. The crystal pit is reasonably priced. We would recommend visiting if you are passing or plan on visiting Ambleside.

Tried to get near rock pit but couldn't as rude mothers with too many kids and dogs blocking the way. Maybe a sign put up to remind people to allow others to get a look in would work?
