Overall Rating
Excellent
Heart of Gold, a family business, have 2 shops in the Brentwood. The one selling new jewellery is very accessible as it has a large door that has a slightly sloped entrance. The shop is well stocked with contemporary pieces with a very wide range of prices. The staff are very friendly and always greet you with a smile. Nothing seems too much bother. The sister shop across the road sells second hand items and does watch repairs. It is a tiny shop that only has room for a couple of staff and customers. This should not put you off they are lovely people

As explained earlier there are 2 Heart of Gold shops. Main shop is the most accessible. Wide door with a very slight slope leading into the shop.
