What our Customers Say

Baby Tree Swing

We have been very impressed with the excellent quality of the seat and all of the fittings/attachments. It is clearly built with a great deal of skill and pride. Will no doubt be in touch at some stage in the future to upgrade to a normal seat swing. Delighted with our purchase.

Brian Hamblin

Horizon Swing Seat

We purchased our 'Horizon' swing seat from MR Woodcraft Ltd last year. The seat was beautifully made and produced to a very high standard by Matt. As each seat is individually crafted there is understandably a waiting period for the seat to be made, we were kept fully informed of delivery timescales and when then seat was ready it was delivered and fitted. The quality and service of MR Woodcraft was second to none, and I would have no hesitation in recommending you purchase from this family business.

Jonathan & Ruth Farnhill

Single Garden Swing Frame

Hi Matt, Just a quick email to let you know how pleased we are with the swing.  Needless to say our kids were absolutely thrilled! A beautifully made, quality product.  Very nice indeed – so thank you.

John Douglas

Double Garden Swing Frame

Thank you Matt. The children absolutely love the swings, they have been using them everyday and having great fun! I love anything that encourages them to get out in the garden so I'm happy! Everyone is so impressed with them, they really complete the garden.

Hello Matt, We are very happy with the swing! A wonderful product of high quality which I could not find here in Germany.

Benno from Cologne, Germany

Woodland Tree Swing

Hi Matt, We absolutely love the swing, it looks beautiful in the orchard!

Amanda

Woodland Tree Swing

We bought the swing after seeing one in a friend's garden and I loved it. I decided on the engraving being 'MAKE A WISH'!  The reason being that everyone, no matter who they are, would love to be granted one! Thank you.

Carole

Hi Matt, The swing has arrived and looks great! Thanks so much for your speedy help and turnaround. Really excellent customer service.

A beautiful quality swing seat. Great customer service from order to installation. Many thanks

Emma Proud

Double Garden Swing Frame

We bought a double garden swing in oak from MR Woodcraft in March 2016 and have been delighted with the whole experience.  Our initial enquiry was dealt with in a prompt and professional manner, the proofs of the swing design were emailed to us for approval and installation was carried out at the agreed time and to a very high standard. We have gained a great deal of pleasure from our MR Woodcraft swing and have no hesitation in recommending this company!

John and Tony, Brittany, France

Horizon Swing Seat

We purchased a swing seat just under a year ago and decided to leave the wood natural without any oil seal.  It has matured to a lovely silver grey oak colour and looks very good.  We are absolutely delighted with the product – it is robust and comfortable to sit on.  The whole process of specifying, ordering and payment to MR Woodcraft was simple and efficient.  The product was delivered when it was promised and Matt came down to our house to assemble it.  It only took a couple of hours to assemble and was done very efficiently.

Richard Miles

Michelle Lansbury

Woodland Tree Swing

Hi Matt Just to let you know the swing arrived today and I am absolutely delighted with it, it is absolutely beautiful quality. It has been hung by my sons scrambling up the designated tree and looks absolutely perfect. Thank you for your prompt and easy service and good quality product. Many thanks

Hi Matt, We are in love with our swing, it is a work of art! Thanks

Louise – Dundas Castle

Woodland Tree Swing

I'm so glad I stumbled across MR Woodcraft, the website was clear and offered a great selection. I wasn't sure which swing to go for so I gave them a call and they were so helpful, I made a decision there and then (just had to do a bit of measuring first!)! The swing arrived within a couple of days and looked perfect. It was a big hit! 

Will Croft

Woodland Tree Swing

I loved the look of your tree swings but wanted some bespoke tweaks. You were really helpful in talking me through all the options (thanks for taking my call on a Saturday). I placed the order online on Sunday and I took delivery of my tree swing on the Wednesday: that's outstanding service. It's beautifully made, is perfect for the tree and location and a joy to use. I'd recommend you and your company unreservedly.

J Hacking

Classic Tree Swing

Bought a swing from Matt for our children this Christmas. I had the challenge of an uneven bough to fasten it to, and Matt was incredibly helpful before I even bought it, in terms of drawing alternatives and discussing how best to fix it. The swing itself is also great - beautifully made. We had ours engraved for the children, and the attention to detail is great. I'd not hesitate to recommend Matt and his swings!

Guy Champniss

Classic Tree Swing

Excellent service from start to finish. After placing my order I received an email from Matt with a preview of the lettering on our swing, he let me know when it was ready and what day I would receive it, we had an email on the day with the est time, his customer service was brilliant. Our swing is lovely, we ordered the adult size which the whole family can enjoy. Thank you Matt

Janet Brooker

Dozen/Half dozen Oak Egg Rack – Personalised egg rack

I saw Matts egg rack on Instagram and really liked the look of it, bought it for my wife for Christmas and had Matt engrave it with our children's names, Matt was very helpful on the phone when I said what I wanted and he delivered it to my house as I live local. My wife was very pleased with her present I would recommend anyone buy from MR Woodcraft from the service I received, very pleased!
