Looking for the perfect gift?

From extra special stocking fillers (try the pillow mist from Bamford, or a leather journal from Smythson) to dazzling designer gifts from Mulberry and Paul Smith, it’s never too early to start thinking about little treats for your loved ones.

Collect (triple) Avios as you go

Good news! Until 31 December 2021, as an Executive Club Member, you’ll receive 15 Avios for every £4 you spend, whether in person or via the Village’s Virtual Shopping service. Don’t forget that you can also earn 15 Avios for every €4 spent on your purchases across the collection of Villages in Europe. So, if you’re planning a trip abroad, factor in a visit to one of the European Villages and keep collecting. Discover more here.

Jolly good grub

Complete your Christmas shopping with warming mulled wine, creamy hot chocolate and an indulgent brownie from Rococo Chocolates, or sit down for a bite to eat at any one of the Village’s restaurants. There’s authentic Italian fare at La Tua Pasta, Asian excellence at Shan Shui and delicious British dishes at farmshop restaurant & cafe. Plus, bring a sense of occasion to your shopping trip with Café Wolseley’s afternoon tea, served in its elegant dining room. A truly special treat.

’Tis the season of style

This December, add a touch of sparkle to your wardrobe with new partywear. To wow that special someone (or even just your co-workers), party-ready dresses from Balmain or elegant tailoring from Brioni will do the trick.

Plan your dream day out
