Received this by e-mail.

We are operating on a self service basis but as it is a new business concept for the town Robert or I will be there virtually all of the time for the next few weeks until our customers are comfortable using the machines.

Open 7 days - Monday - Fri - 08.30 - 20.00, Sat 09.00 - 18.00, Sun 10.00 - 18.00.

We are happy for locals who have a washing machine at home to bring their wet washing to the laundrette and use our dryers. This drastically cuts drying time compared to domestic machines. Drying costs / times vary depending on the load size and content. The large dryers (suitable for king-size duvet) give 35 min for £2 and the standard dryers (considerably larger than a domestic dryer) give 40 min for £2.

The commercial washing machines come in two sizes, standard (£3 per wash) and large (£4 per wash). The large holds approx twice the volume of washing that a domestic machine can so are great for duvets, bed linen & large loads of clothes.

Both washers and dryers take £2, £1, 50p & 20p coins.

We made use of the laundrette last week when we visited the town and it is great. We had a large pile of bedding and the two loads in the large washing machines were enough. I guess this would normally be 4 or even 5 at home. Tumble dryers are excellent to say the least and everything we dry in no time. Even managed to nip over the town between washes.

We definitely will use this again.

Thought a few people might be interested in a couple photos I took last week while passing. Very good feedback round town on the facilities and always seem to be busy.
