Information provided by various external sources

We started The Wool Company making socks from kid mohair, the fleece shorn from baby Angora goats, but soon realised that there was a serious shortage of supply of high quality natural wool products of many kinds and started to develop our range. As well as selling to retail customers online we supply a number of corporate customers including world wide hotel chains, boutiques, stores, boutique hotels, breweries chains etc. Our wholesale division is relatively small but growing well, we now have excellent wholesale clients in the UK and abroad. At The Wool Company we have always felt that the the use of natural fibres for bedding and clothing is better in every way than petrochemical products and it is our mission to share our belief with the rest of the world that cares to listen. Our watchword is Quality: we source as many of our products as we can from the UK and most of our suppliers make their products in Britain and our famous sheepskins are mostly from Devon and Cornwall, but we also like to think that we supply the very best quality wool products from around the world so you can be confident that whatever you buy from us is of superb quality. We don't favour inferior UK products over better products from abroad. The Wool Company's priorities: High Quality ...... Value for Money ...... Local Sourcing. - Because of our low overheads you can also be confident of getting real value for money from us: you may be able to buy cheaper elsewhere but we don't believe you will get the same quality for the price! We are still a small company; the whole family gets involved in one way or another (our children have all helped with product testing, modelling, gift wrapping, packing and stock-taking and even art direction!) and, when the children are at school, our team totals eight. So if you contact us you will know you're getting a real personal service! Copyright © The Wool Company Higher Hill Farm, Cardinham, Bodmin, Cornwall, PL30 4EG

Linen fitted sheets - fantastically comfortable!

The fitted sheets are good quality so far,only washed x3. Soft and light weight. Fit perfectly on deep mattress. Very good at temperature regulation! I've discovered a whole new night experience since changing to linen sheets and pillowcases. Really pleased with purchases.
I don't want to get up as I'm so comfortable,it's such luxury!

Great company, great products, great service.

Great company, great service. I had previously bought a sheepskin for my dog who has serious health problems, but when I ordered a second one for him, I ordered the wrong type which wasn’t suitable. Eileen couldn’t have been more helpful. The returns process was easy and she not only advised on what would work best but she also looked out the perfect one for me. Excellent service from a kind and helpful person.

Great company

Great company, have bought two economy rugs for my cats and an eco tanned seconds economy sheepskin rug. All are fantastic quality and so soft and thick. My orders were dispatched quickly and arrived very promptly, with my second order arriving the day after I placed the order. I look forward to buying from this company again! Thankyou

Im looking for excuses to buy again

I’ve used The Wool Company again as I loved the last lightweight shawl so much. The quality is fantastic and are very reasonably priced. Really good for a present or just to treat yourself!

Beautiful quality items

I bought a beautiful white cashmere pashmina for my wedding and then a couple of weeks later bought an amazing wool blanket. Both arrived very quickly, were nicely packaged and seem of great quality

I have used this company a couple of times now. I bought some mohair socks from them for a Christmas present in lockdown last year and they were very well received so much so that my uncle asked me to get some more for him this year. So that's an easy one! (No he won't be reading this review!
I also bought a cashmere pashmina a while ago, also as a present. It was pretty expensive but my auntie, who reckons she's a bit a pashmina aficionado told me that it was superb quality. What a result. Both times I ordered the goods arrived very quickly so all in all a good result. I came across this Trustpilot reviews site when I was looking for the Wool Co. again this Christmas and was a little surprised at the other reviews. They don't seem to agree with all the verified Feefo reviews on their website, so I thought - credit where credit's due and I would say how good they are. Well done Wool Company!

I chose The Wool Company and paid more than average for a pair of wool inner soles, thinking they would be a better quality then cheaper alternatives. After just an evenings wear, the wool had collapsed to a fine felt. Clearly not as pictured, and I’m only a light adult. With the 100% mark-up they apply to the delivery service, overall a poor experience. I shall not be returning.

Reply from The Wool Company

Hello, Thank you for your valued feedback. I wanted to investigate the postage query as well as the information about the sheepskin insoles to ensure we give you the correct information. The insoles are real sheepskin so the pile will compress on the initial use but this does not compromise the comfort, warmth and breathability offered by these very popular insoles. The fleece can be smoothed back up with your hand after use but will compress as above each time worn as any weight over a period of time will push the fleece down.

With the postage (Royal Mail 48 hour), we are in the hands of Royal Mail and have to follow their charges. We do not increase product prices to cover the postage so do provide this postage at below cost to us when we take into consideration the labelling and packaging elements. This is the reality:- Postage cost to us £3.60. This can be verified here: https://www.royalmail.com/sending/uk/tracked-48. We have to charge cost plus VAT = £4.32.
This leaves 18p (including 3p VAT) to cover packaging and labelling, hence we are actually providing the Royal Mail Tracked 48 service to our customers at below cost.

We do value all feedback as it helps us to stock the right products for our customers and make informed choices for our business. We will also work with customers if they let us know that they are unhappy, we work to resolve issues through our hassle free 'exchange and returns policy'.

I hope that this goes some way so answering the issues and will email you directly to ensure you know that we do listen and will always go the extra mile. Kind regards.

Utterly disgraceful

I returned an item 7 weeks ago and am still waiting for a refund. I was promised over the phone it would be done first thing on Monday and that was 3 weeks ago. They have not replied to my email or "contact us" submission made on their website. Looks like I am going to have to contact an ombudsman in order to try and recover my money.

Silk socks

Silk socks
I bought two pairs of identical silk socks in different colours but when I opened them I found that they are not the same both in terms of size and texture. Please, also note the labelling in each pair was different. When I look at the labels I noticed that they are Jasmine Silk made in China. I read in one of your reviews that your silk socks were better than the Jasmine Silk ones. Obviously the review was wrong because what you sell are the Jasmine Silk ones.
If I have wanted Jasmine Silk socks I would have bought them from Jasmine Silk Company directly and I would have saved in delivery costs too because they do free delivery to the UK.
I feel you do not say the truth to your costumers therefore it the first and last time I will be one of them.

Thank you for taking the time to feed back to us and I'm sorry for your disappointment.

There was indeed once a time when we used Jasmine Silk as a supplier and I understand that you may received such stock, but we have been using a different manufacturer for many months now. The quality of the silk socks that we have been selling for some time is, I believe, second to none and we believe that the price charged is very fair.

We do offer a hassle-free refund/return policy which I would encourage any disappointed customer to use or to at least contact us so we can help resolve any problem.

Thank you once more for your feedback and I am very sorry for your disappointment.

Excellent customer service

An excellent service provided by the 'wool company' I had a problem with a delivery through 'royal mail' spoke with wool company and they have taken control for me now. It is very disappointing that the company should suffer due to a third party being unreliable, staff very polite and could not do enough to help me.
Would recommend them to anyone wanting quality wool items

I was looking for a beautiful fleece…Jacob fleece

I was looking for a beautiful fleece for my hallway & accidentally found this company . So I ordered the Jacob fleece which arrived very promptly & when I opened it it was a Wow ! It was just what I wanted ! I was absolutely delighted. I was so delighted I ordered a larger one & that was just equally a Wow! The service was brilliant & the fleeces beautiful.I would highly recommend this company

My Toes are in Heaven!

Item Purchased - Single sheepskin in Aubergine

I bought a sheepskin a few months ago from a large department store (initials JL) which is very good and was cheaper than this one. However, I wanted one in purple ..... Searched online and found this company. Unbelievably thrilled that I did! The Wool Company sheepskin are absolutely worth the extra few pounds ..... Wonderfully plush with a truly luxurious feel. I will not go elsewhere again! In fact, the JL sheepskin will be going into the dog's basket .... And will be replaced with a Wool Company one! Don't hesitate ....
