    From what I've been told the one at Cheshire Oaks is not a discount one it's just a normal shop. It's not actually in the Cheshire Oaks outlet bit it's on a retail park nearby. So perhaps you would be best going to the one in Huddersfield as that's definitely a factory shop?

    Hope that helps, and more over I hope I'm right!

    You are! We were at Cheshire Oaks yesterday, and I can confirm the store is based in the retail park beside it. The factory shop is about 5 mins from Junction 25 on the M62. If there is something in particular you want, you could phone their customer enquiry line to see if they have it in stock? (Admittedly I'm not sure they'll actually check the factory shop, but it might be worth a go? http://www.mamasandpapas.co.uk/contact.php )

    The other thing I would say is the shop itself isn't huge, and they generally don't have the most current range - but we got our travel system there last year for considerably less than the main shops as it was the previous season.

    The shop in Huddersfield is not huge but they do have a good selection of stuff reduced from store prices. They are not far from the M62 and quite easy to get to. If you know what you want give them a ring - they should be able to tell you if it is in stock.

    We found that pretty much every independent stockist of M&P stuff is cheaper than the proper M&P shops as they can charge what they like on the products. MOre than likely find one closer as well, there is a search facility on the M&P website I think to find nearby ones.
