Ledbury has many individual shops which provide a leisurely morning’s shopping, and one of my favourites is Butler and Sweatman. Declan and Andrew have two shops, one with furniture and larger items and the other with smaller items for the home such as Alessi accessories and Emma Bridgewater china. They are the only U.K. stockist outside London of L’Artisan Parfumeur personal and room fragrances; if you are celebrating a special occasion such as an anniversary or are just away for a short break, one of the perfumes would make a lovely gift.
