Fremlin Walk is a fairly new development in the middle of Maidstone town centre. It has a good…read moreselection of shops - Next, Schuh, River Island, Republic, House of Fraser, Beaverbrooks - to name a few. There's also a few coffee shops dotted up and down the street. My only advice to people shopping here is NOT to park in the underground car park - they charge extortionate prices to park the car. You are better off choosing one of the outside car parks like Brewer Street.

This part of town stands out from the rest and definantly seems out of place. A nice stretch with…read morethe latest high street names topped off by a House of Fraser at the end.

Ripped off by a boy dealing with Parking Charges, I'll never go back. Once bitten etc etc. Used to…read moreuse the Centre monthly for a wide range of purchases, including some food, clothing, shoes and toiletries. But I had to pay a surcharge having lost my "car park chip" which I had just paid for by Card, £1.50. Couldn't go back up to the 5th floor to get it, v bad ankle. The boy didn't care, he read from his script. So I paid another £5 just to get out. Bye bye Chequers, I'll give Fremlin Walk a go when my ankle heals up, or maybe Tunbridge Wells.

I love Wilkinsons. It is a great store for literally everything you need around the home…read more I used to spend loads on cleaning products, and household products, then i came across Wilkinsons in The Mall. Is is located on the ground floor. Wilkinsons sell everything, household cleaning goods, beauty prdocuts, pet food, bedroom sheets, cushions, lights, paint, you name it, they probably do it. I stick to Wilkinsons because they prices are always so good, and they have loads of fantastic buy one get one free offers. The only thing i hate is how packed it gets on a weekend. You normally line up for about 10 minutes to pay, but i guess i shouldn't grumble, especially because the prices are soo good. Plus, now that Woolworths has gone, i'm guessing this will be the place i buy my Pick n Mix from!
