Amazing shop with an incredible range of stock. I always pop in here when I'm gift shopping as they have so much to choose from, from little things like artisan soaps or jewelry to incredible one-of-a-kind vintage items and excellent prints. I love the careful selection of vintage decor, from rugs and furniture to pottery and ornaments, and the fact they're always getting new things in, I don't know how they manage to find so much nice stuff!
It's hard to describe just how wonderful this shop is because you have to visit and feel it for yourself. It sells an eclectic selection of new and vintage treasures including ornaments, books, kilim rugs, mugs, cards, Annie Sloan chalk paint, furniture, jewellery, socks and so much more. It's the type of shop for browsing and finding something you never knew you needed. It's also Gift Central for purchasing unique pressies. The staff are friendly and always up for a chat. You can also donate products to the local food bank and there is a collection box for a local charity if you have a spare coin.
This shop is fantastic! Plus its always showing off local artists. Inclusivity is at the heart of the shop and we LOVE to see it :)
