The 7 Best Gift & Specialty Shops in Darlington, England
Darlington is a large market town in County Durham, in North East England. With a population of 92,363 in 2011, the town lies on the River Skerne, a tributary of the River Tees. The town is administered as part of the Borough of Darlington. The town owes much of its development to the influence of local Quaker families in the Georgian and Victorian era, and who provided much of the finance and vision in creating the Stockton and Darlington Railway, the world's first steam locomotive powered, permanent passenger railway. The town is often colloquially referred to as 'Darlo'.

Such a gorgeous gift for my dad's lockdown birthday! From the ladies at @cheesewineshop Claire was great, so knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and generally an all round perfect human ???? A fantastic selection, I just told her about my dad's likes and dislikes and she put together a perfect hamper, well within budget ????

We wanted to create something with mass appeal, but that would offer the people of Darlington a new retail experience. We looked at all the lighting, gift and interior shops in the region, and then we went in a totally new direction, curating a product selection that was non-typical, on-trend and brand new in the town. The result is a beautiful shop in the heart of Darlington with an open plan studio feel, unique display pieces that have been hand built using locally sourced wood and a wide product selection of handmade lampshades, interiors and gifts.
