The Hambledon

The Hambledon

(5 reviews)

This shop is England at it's most upmarket and quintessential. Winchester is a small market town 12…read moremiles north of Southampton and has an idyllic, relaxed atmosphere as you walk around the cobbled streets, through the cathederal grounds and along the river side. And the feel of Winchester life is encapsulated, bottled and gift-wrapped in this shop. It sells designer furniture, coffee table books, clothes, baby paraphenalia, very posh toiletries and things for the home. You might struggle to find anything you need in here and will have no trouble at all finding everything that you want. The innocent looking white swing tags pack quite a punch to the wallet and match the affluent clientele to a tee You never see men in here, you just see them waiting outside with a nervous look on their face! The upstairs is entirely dedicated to providing the beautiful Winchester ladies with suitable attire for their many social arrangements. The value of their clothes stock would probably pay for the entire relief effort needed to get Burma back on it's feet. The menswear is equally, effortlessly cool. The clothes hang by very contemporary banksy-style wall art. They have mixed this very modern style with the very much desired homely, rustic, family-orientated feel that Winchester oozes from every pore. The outcome is utterly irresistable. There is no average in here, in fact they are noticably aiming to be anything but average. The womenswear ranges from £50(t-shirts)-~£600(dresses, jackets, bags), with some affordable middleground. I have bought a few dresses from here - a butterfly print halterneck (£75) and a black wrap dress (£80). Menswear £30 (ubercool T-shirts)-£300 (jackets, suits). A fantastic place for stationary and little gifts. At Christmas time the whole of the town comes into it's own, doing the traditional Christmas with spectacular charm. The Hambledon becomes a heavenly Christmas wonderland, just make sure you bring your flexible friend along. Once every season (twice a year) the owners sell off all their designer clothing to make room for the new stock and just recently this has happened in a smaller shop a few minutes away, rented for 3 days or so and rammed to the rafters with designer bargains. Arrive early, the queues reached the 1 hour wait mark within 10 minutes of opening. And beware - these Winchester ladies don't hold back. And you need cash or cheque, they are open to a bit of bartering, so be prepared to strike a deal. Check out their website for details or to join their mailing list. I love this place, but it's extravagant, designer, way-too-cool image always leaves me feeling slightly uneasy and thinking about foreign aid crises So it's a comfortable 4 stars. It is, after all, in the south, you wouldn't find a place like this up north, not even in York :)

I really enjoy visiting this shop in my time off. It's so unique and has so much character with…read morelovely staff and a great asthenic. The only downside would be the price point but this shop is great for finding clothing, gifts and small brands.

This Matalan store is far better than the one located in the centre of Southampton. Although it's…read moresmaller because it's only on one level, it's much easier to find what you're looking for because the clothes, etc are laid out in a way that allows you browse without confusion and there's also a fitting room should you wish to try something on. There is a small homewares section that sells smaller items such as vases, bathroom accessories, dining sets and the like. This store also sells gifts, CD's and DVD's (not new releases). The store itself is big, clean and open but unfortuantely there are often long queues at the checkouts. One of the benefits of this store is the free car park that serves the few shops in this small retail park.

The Matalan in Eastleigh is very big, and houses all sorts of things from Kids, Women's and Men's…read moreclothing to homewares and DVD's. There are a lot of checkouts at the front of the store, but normally only about 2 or 3 open - even when there is a big queue. The changing rooms are fine, nothing fancy but there is private space to get changed and mirrors to see yourself in. The clothes and shoes are very reasonably priced and cater to all tastes, young and old. This is something you don't see often in shops and it's nice to have somewhere where the whole family can go to shop and no one is bored! The homewares are again extremely good value for money, and modern and nicely designed. The DVD's are a bit hit and miss, sometimes you can get a good bargin but othertimes they can be a bit overpriced. The store is clean and tidy and well organised.
