Car seats

Good place to try and buy car seats in surrey or Sussex

Hi we need to get a new car seat for 9 months +. Does anyone know any larger shops in Surrey or Sussex where they sell a good range of seats and can also fit them. We have looked in smaller shops and mothercare but they don't have much range and the staff don't advise very well. We are based in Guildford but willing to travel if there is a big shop or baby centre which someone can recommend. Thanks.

Have you already tried here, just up the A3

www.a3babybarn.co.uk/

They are approved Britax fitters

They sell extended rear facing car seats too.

We bought ours from Ann's Prams in Petersfield. It's Hampshire but was worth the drive from West Sussex. They have a reasonable range but, most importantly, they are experts in fitting them.

We use our local halfords and found them brilliant.

We're on the surrey/Sussex border & went to the In-Car Safety Centre in Milton Keynes. Bit of a drive but so worthwhile.

We went to Ann's Prams in Petersfield too. Incredible range & really safe, impartial advice. Would highly recommend them.
