The Aroma Shop

Allyson and Charles Hurst's eclectic stock of gifts, jewellery and contemporary decor started a new trend for gift shops in the Eden Valley. Their Aroma Shop is still one of Kirkby's most popular venues for serious retail therapy.

The Church Gallery
3-7 Market Street, Kirkby Stephen

The Church Gallery doesn't do what it says on the label, which makes it hard to describe but a wonderful place to visit.

Owned by Steve and Fiona Simkiss, it's discreet burgundy painted facia gives little away about the treasures it sells, but as soon as you walk through the door you are met with a seamless convergence of wares.
