So..... here he is at work.
There has been plenty of comments about how much harder he works than Josh and myself, he's better looking than me, and has a lot more hair than me!! Such nice friends I have 😂
The important bit is..... he is currently without a name.... therefore, its time to run a competition.
Please give us your suggestions of what you think we should call him. Not sure how we are going to decide on a winner yet but we'll see what we can sort out.

For anyone who has not been in to see us this week, please let me introduce you to the newest member of Cornish Cobbler....

OPEN FROM 8:30am Today
Im pleased to say that Josh is feeling well enough to work today. And we will be open from 8:30am. We look foward ti welcoming you back and appreciate your patience.

14/01/2026

Sadly we will remain closed today. Although Josh is slowly improving, he"s not quite there yet. Your continued patience is very much appreciated.

13/01/2026

Regrettably we will not be open again today, and potentially not be open at all this week.
As some will know, I am currently enjoying a well earned holiday, and unfortunately Josh has picked up one of the nasty bugs doing the rounds and is barely able to get out of bed, let alone do any work.
We obviously value your custom, well wishes and understanding and as soon as Josh is well enough to open, he will.
I won't be back in the country until later this month, but hopefully we will be able to welcome you back into the shop very soon. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

12/01/2026

Please note that we will be closed today due to staff sickness. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience for this unavoidable occurrence and we will be back open as soon as possible. We thank you for your u persuading and co-operation.

Can you believe that today is Day 1, Year 2 of the Cornish Cobbler!? Wishing myself a very Happy 1st Birthday!! At times it has been tough, especially with relocating the business to The Platt, but it has been worth it. If you haven't seen our new shop yet, why not pop in and wish us a Happy Birthday

The Wadebridge branch is now closed, and we thank you all for the support over the many years.
Tomorrow is electrical installation inspection, so the shop will be closed. Signage to sort out over the weekend before we re-open on Monday 18th and the beginning of a new adventure when Cornish Cobbler opens it's door for the first time.
We're looking forward to the challenge, and also welcoming customers old and new.
Here's a little sneak preview of our new workwear. Hope you like it!

Wow!! We are ready to welcome you from 8:30am Monday 11th to our new home at Hamilton House, The Platt. It's been a busy...
