This is a great charity shop and they sell almost everything you can think of from clothes and…read morebooks to toys and furniture. You really can find almost anything here and the prices are very good as i find some charity shops to be a little steep. Their range of books is excellent and it's a bit like a mini library as they have so many books here and they are all categorised to make it easy to find what you are looking for. The staff are all volunteers and always seem very friendly and chatty.

This is a small branch of the F Hinds chain located between the Guildhall shopping centre and…read moreExeter High Street. They stock quite a wide range of jewellery along with watches, gifts and ornaments. I purchased my wife's wedding ring here and the staff were lovely and friendly. Great for jewellery but also their range of gifts are very nice and they start from around £7 which isn't bad for a present.

Visited this shop 3/3/11, well worth a visit, we were shopping for wedding lingerie , staff were…read morefriendly, knowledgable and very helpful not at all pushy. We came away with everything my daughter needed at a reasonable cost, and things she felt were well fitted and comfortable. Well done Eclipse

Also offer a framing service with a nice range of frames, although they aren't the cheapest and arguably a better framer in Tavistock is the one on the trading estate behind Focus. The staff are knowledgeable and the resulting framing was of a high quality. Much of the stock is quite pricey but obviously of good quality and many of the featured artists have a strong local if not national following. Worth a visit if you are in Tavistock!

I popped in for a browse around and was impressed by the helpful and informative service provided…read moreby the well informed sales assistant. Well worth a visit. A wide selection of quality pieces and pictures, many by local artists featuring local scenes. Now known as 'The Art Gallery'. I imagine the framing is still available.

Good shop for a local corner shop…read more Car parking for shoppers and level access so disabled friendly. Shop has air conditioning which makes it very cold sometimes. Typical convenience store, good layout though with wide aisles. Very good fruit and vegetables section at very competitive prices. Other goods are priced at normal type prices for a local 'corner' shop. Staff usually very helpful. National lottery can be bought here as well as paypoint to pay bills and top up facilities for utilities as well as mobile phones. Open 7am to 11pm, papers and magazines on sale as well as cards. Licenced so sells quite a range of alcohol again usually with specials on promotion. Large range of goods. Very useful cash machine which does not charge for withdrawals. Trouble is it is often out of order, probably because it is the only 'free' machine in the immediate area, which is predominately a large housing area.

This is a really compelling art form - if you're interested at all you should check out this shop where you can see finished mosaics as well as t eh products and equipment needed to make them. Opus Mosaics sell mosaic tiles for craft/art purposes and also for DIY purposes, with a selection of really unusual tiles for bathrooms or kitchens. They also have the tools needed to fit them.

I had a very disappointing experience at Opus Mosaics. Having shelled out £50 for a workshop to…read morelearn about the craft, there was no welcome for me and my fellow attendees on arriving at the course, no refreshments were provided at all over 5 hours, it was made very clear we should not come back early from our hour's lunch break, and the toilet facilities were abysmal - the sink was filthy and there was no hot water, soap or towels for us to clean the glue from our hands. The expertise offered to us was very limited. Having been initially told what to do, we were largely left to our own devices for c.4 hours to make a mosaic whilst the husband and wife supposedly running the course talked to each other at intervals about personal family affairs as opposed to providing support and inspiration. It was very unprofessional and certainly not money well spent. I would urge anyone interested in taking part in a mosaic course to think twice about going to Opus Mosaic.

This is a really nice Matalan store. They have a very large womenswear department as well as a…read moremenswear and childrenswear. They also sell homeware in this store and have some really lovely things, quite similar to what you would find in Next etc. but at much more competitive prices. There are plenty of changing rooms here so you never really have to queue for too long and the rooms are clean and spacious. I don't live in Newton Abbot but whenever i am nearby i try to pop in here as i much prefer it to the Matalan in my hometown.

Matalan is situated just outside the towncentre close to the race course. It is a nice shop which…read moresells good quality and reasonably priced clothes for all the family.

This is the new Debenhams in Exeter - the old one was situated around the corner and was an…read moreabsolute eyesore. The building, however, is brand new and really stylish. The main downside that I have found is that the floor is very slippy on the ground floor, so if you don't have very grippy shoes you could easily slip over, or if it got wet. Nicely laid out, with all the usual Debenhams stuff. There is a cafe on the top floor, with comfy seating, but it is quite small and seems to be quite expensive too. It's ok though, although queues always seem long!

This Debenhams is fantastic, so much better than the old one which was just dated. It is spread out…read moreover four floors and they sell a whole range of goods.
