Shopping is an experience; trying on clothes and feeling their texture, sampling local produce from Farmers' Markets or taking in the atmosphere of a bustling parade. Find places to shop near you that can't be matched by the Internet.
If you think shopping in South England is restricted to Regent Street and Carnaby Street, think again. In addition to traditional shopping centres and discount designer outlets, South East England has a collection of unique places to shop outside London that can't be found anywhere else.
Explore the narrow alleys of the 17th century Lanes, a maze of smart shops selling antiques, jewellery and designer clothes.
The Lanes in Brighton is one of the South East’s more eccentric shopping destinations and was once the heart of an old fishing town. Today the area is a maze of winding streets dotted with many unique and quirky shops, cafes and restaurants.
If hand crafted, locally made, is more your thing, then The Sussex Guild Shop & Gallery is for you. Established as a charity over 50 years ago with over 100 members, it brings together a group of local professional designers and makers of fine, contemporary and traditional craftwork.
The former capital of England is a well preserved city so even shopping in Winchester means popping in to historic buildings. It makes it a wonderful place to go bargain hunting – whether you're thinking antique or boutique!
Winchester's Christmas Market sets the standard by which others are judged while one of the UK's largest Farmers' Markets (2nd and final Sunday of each month), made famous by Rick Stein, offers revered local produce from the rural county of Hampshire.
Retail therapy is one of the top reasons to come to the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants to feast your eyes on after a long day shopping.
At the heart of shopping in Windsor and Eton is Windsor Royal Shopping Centre, a mostly covered area that occupies the site of a 1850s railway station where you can still see Queen Victoria’s royal waiting room.
In Ashford you'll find McArthurGlen Designer Outlet where your favourite brands are priced up to 60% less, all year round.
There’s something for everyone, within this beautiful setting. Situated in the heart of the Garden of England, Kent, and designed by architect Lord Richard Rogers, this is one of Europe’s most spectacular shopping destinations.
