The Church Hill antique centre is fantastic. It's a big antique shop housed in an old church. I…read moredon't know very much about antiques, and I am normally put off by the prices, but I spent absolutely ages in here: there was a lot of great stuff, mostly very affordable. The jewellery and accessories were especially good; there was a gold bangle watch in there for only £25. Upstairs on the gallery they had a few 1930's fur stoles, mink and fox for between £20 and £40. Cheap as chips, considering! Plus the stuff was all laid out nicely in cabinets. I'm definitely going to come back when I need to buy some presents for people. You could get something really special at a decent price.

I found a copy of Milton's Poetical Works and asked "How much?" Because there are sections of…read moreconsignment items from various sellers and the price wasn't marked, the man at the front counter called the seller to see about the price. Her first answer was that the books were "prop pieces" but that she would be willing to sell the book for £5. Wow. It was published in 1862. I am happy to have found the book and happy with the service in this shop.

Brighton and Lewes are both rich in these kind of establishments, but I personally feel that Lewes…read moredoes the antiques and oddities side of things so well. This place is a great case in point. The lay out and the feel of the Flea market are as you would expect, stalls and cabinets dividing up a larger space within a splendid Victorian building. Much like Snooper's Paradise or any other flea market. What I think sets this place apart is the stock they seem to keep and the prices that they sell said stock for. There's a brilliant selection not just of retro tat, but fascinating antiques most of which are on sale for the kind of money that any sensible post graduate with a little flare and taste could afford. The staff seems a little mad too, in a good way, rather than quietly shuffling around as you would expect in a standard antiques shop they talk loudly and whiter away about their social life in a way that makes you feel that you can spend a good hour or so here simply to brows. This works very much to their advantage in my opinion as I now know where to turn for any difficult birthdays or Christmases. All in all, if you're enjoying a day wandering about in Lewes or if you are just in town and have the time, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Lewes seems to be rife with antiques shops (Cliffe High Street in particular), they seem to range…read morefrom some fantastic and fascinating collections of furniture and accessories from times long gone by (in the style of a genuine and well established store) to the more modern shabby chic "I saw you coming" type of shops. Lewes Antiques Centre is definitely one of the former. Focussing more on the small household wares and accessories this place has a good selection of glass cabinets filled with all manner of interesting trinkets from the past. It's a little like when you're young and you sneak off to go through the dining room drawers at your grandparents' place on Sundays. While the prices and the stock in here are great the vibe of the place seems to be really odd, had I gone in on my own I would have almost certainly left within a minute or so. The reason for this is that the people who were apparently the staff seemed generally unpleasant huffing and puffing every time I was remotely in their way rather than simply saying excuse me. Then there was the constant whispering. Nothing is going to set a potential customer less at their ease than the sound of hushed voices from behind the counter whilst they are trying to browse. If you can get past that though then I have to say this would be one of the best places going to pick up the finishing touches to a 1930s fancy dress outfit.

I must agree with the previous review. I love going round antique shops but the people here are…read morevery grumpy. It's as if they find having customers an inconvenience. Other antique shops in the town are more welcoming.

Coming from Africa, I can't help but allow the rich scent of cured wood to tickle the very back of…read moremy olfactory sense. Natural Style is such a shop where the rich scents of oak, maple and other hardwoods waft off of elegantly designed furniture pieces for home and bedroom. All kinds of trinkets, mirrors and Christmas stocking fillers are to be found in abundance and the first rate service, whether looking or buying, should be commended. Finding Natural Style is like looking in all your pockets trying to find your lighter. You always find it in the last pocket you look in, and during winter in England that could literally be ten pockets later. The same for Natural Style: it's full of one-off pieces that wouldn't quite make a set, but might be just what you're looking for if you've exhausted all of your other furniture options.

Also on site there is a small plant shop and a cafe selling a range of teas, coffees, light lunches and a delicious section of cakes which I highly recommend.
