Our Shop is now OPEN

Our Shop re-opened on Monday 6th July. Our opening hours are: Monday - Saturday 11:00am to 4.00pm

In response to the coronavirus, we have read government and other guidelines and followed their advice; and we’re pleased to have received Visit England’s ‘Good to Go’ certificate of compliance. We ask that each shopper uses our hand sanitiser or wears the gloves we provide; uses one of our baskets; keeps to 2m social distancing; pays by card not cash; and obviously not to enter the shop if feeling unwell. If you want to see more details of our procedures, click here. We look forward to welcoming you!

The Shop

The Merchant's House shop was originally set up in the front room of the house to raise funds for the restoration of the building.  Over the years it has become a larger enterprise spreading into the "back room" previously called the Exhibition room. 

During the months of November and December when the house is closed to members of the public, the panelled room is taken over by the shop to include a Christmas room full of decorations and more gifts. 

Presents for Everyone!

The aim of the shop is to provide presents for everyone.  The stock is extremely varied from Emma Bridgewater pottery, William Yeoward glass, LSA, Jellycat toys, Glover and Smith (Wiltshire pewter company), L'Occitane, Branche D'Olives toiletries, English soaps, cotton nightdresses by Lunn Antiques, greetings cards and so much more from babies' gifts to something for Grandma!

The shop has a small management team but relies on Volunteers to work behind the counter enabling all the profits to fund the ongoing project of the house.

From Monday 6th July our shop opening hours are:
Monday - Saturday 11:00am to 4.00pm
