(308)

Shop - relax - eat - and enjoy. The site has free parking, free entry and is super dog friendly too. Set in the Main building, Barn Arcade and South Street you will find lots of beautiful and unusual boutiques that offer something a little different to the norm. It really is a treasured gem that you simply wont find on the high street. Housing all the amenities you could need from free car parking, a beautiful tea room and on site toilets, it really is worth a visit.
