The book is the Hook!
The book is the Hook! Great to see an Irish Family Business using Irish products to make lovely hampers. The book is the thing that makes it different to other hampers, who doesn't love to get a new book, some goodies to eat and a candle, handcream etc.
Very quick to respond and deliver, so great for last min.birthday gifts!

While recovering from an accident recently, a package was delivered by dpd to my house. Upon opening, it revealed a giftbox from thebookresort as a surprise by a friend.
What a fantastic gift! Book, chocolate, soap, bodywash and socks. It gave me a real lift.
I have to say it's wonderful to see an Irish company provide such a great product and service.
I didn't know thebookresort existed until the box arrived and it is definitely a company I will use in the very near future!

Great company to deal with
Great company to deal with. I have bought a few subscriptions as gifts which worked out great, they sorted a minor issue with a package extremely quickly with zero fuss. All the products are as described, and brilliant quality. I recommend them to friends and family all the time as an alternative to the usual 'flowers and chocolates gift'
