Independent shopping villages like Labels in Ross-on-Wye and The Hop Pocket at Bishop’s Frome are not just your generic collective of outlet names. Built all under one roof, Labels certainly offers discounted brands but also has its own boutique cinema. The Hop Pocket’s vast craft emporium, restaurant and specialist garden centre, is all set in 5.5 acres of converted hop buildings which include fashion and footwear, a huge toy department, beautiful home and interiors and even an acclaimed art gallery, alongside a brand new food hall.
A deli and farm shop, retro/salvaged furniture sales and pop-up events all adds to the artisan café that is The Nest at this quirky roadside location. With Newent Plant Centre directly next door, this is a must for discerning plant enthusiasts looking for specialist flora and fauna as well as the usual quality house and garden plants.
The hours vanish at Holloways as you’re suddenly inspired to remodel your home when you discover how modern furnishings
can successfully mix with salvaged garden items. Good job there’s the delicious Glasshouse café onsite to refuel your thoughts.
For organic foodie lovers, head to Field Fayre in Ross-on-Wye. This specialist in organic and personal dietary requirements has all sorts of tasty ingredients and products for delicious dishes and treats.
Looking for an extra special gift of jewellery? John Mckellar Designer Jewellers in Hereford City’s Independent Quarter sells an exciting choice of contemporary rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and gems from a range of unique designers. Bespoke commissions welcome and pop upstairs to the Old Mayor’s Parlour Gallery for more objets d‘art and craftsman acquisitions.
