Thornes of Windsor
Carrying a large range of the best quality beekeeping equipment in the country, our Thornes of Windsor store is well worth a visit.
Ideally situated within a few miles of the M4 the Windsor branch is a bustling shop and an ideal place to pickup that vital piece of equipment. The shop is always fully stocked with both beekeeping and candlemaking products. We usually deliver to Windsor once a week, so if the piece of equipment you want to purchase, or even look at, isn't in stock, we can get it to the branch very quickly.
We are lucky enough to have two experienced beekeepers running our Windsor store. Bob Loades (ex-Bee Inspector) and John White. They will be happy to help and give advice about all aspects of beekeeping.
The annual Thornes of Windsor Sale Day, held in early September, is a must for any local beekeeper.
Thornes of Windsor will also take in beeswax to swap for freshly milled foundation and stocks an IBC of syrup so you can fill your own containers.
