Your Family-Run Toy Shop in Hythe, Southampton

We're Toys Ahoy — a small independent toy shop a few steps from the water in Hythe. We've picked and packed every single order ourselves since 2011, from a real shop with a real front door. No warehouse. No algorithm deciding what you see. Just us, choosing toys we think children will genuinely love.

Warhammer & Games Workshop

Yes — a proper Warhammer range, in a toy shop in Hythe. Miniatures, paints and starter sets for anyone getting into the hobby, whether that's a twelve-year-old or a forty-year-old with a very tidy painting desk.

Why Families Keep Coming Back

Picked and Packed by Us

Our online shop is run from our actual toyshop. There's no warehouse and no factory — when you order, one of us walks around the shop, chooses your toy off the shelf and wraps it. That's the whole operation, and we rather like it that way.

Toys You Won't Find on Every High Street

We deliberately steer away from the toys you can pick up in the big chains. We look for colourful, well-made things — a lot of them wooden and traditional — with new ideas arriving all the time. Prices start under £5 and go past £50, so there's something whatever the budget.

Because No Two Children Are the Same

After a career in childcare and three children of her own, Jane knows one child's perfect present is another's dust-gatherer. So we stock for all sorts: quiet creative types, board game obsessives, collectors, and yes — grown-ups who play Warhammer.

We're metres from the sea in the middle of Hythe village — easy to combine with the pier or a walk along the front, and a great day out from the city. Parking on the Promenade is just round the corner.
