A bit like Habitat, on a miniature scale this is a stylish interiors and gift shop in Didsbury…read morevillage. Prices aren't cheap, but you pay for quality, style and original designs. From sofas, beds and Dining room furniture, to candles, cookware and framed artwork there's a range to suit most young fashionable home lovers. I love browsing this shop on a Saturday afternoon just to look at all the retro gadgets and bits and pieces that you can find, there's always something new in. They also stock cards, gift wrap and stationary. Perfect for gifts, or just for spoiling yourself 'because you're worth it'.

Handy house wares shop in the middle of Didsbury's high street selling a large range of items from…read morebeds, sofa's, rugs, lamps, picture frames, plates and cutlery, to bedroom furniture and kitchen accessories. Luckily at the time of writing, they are having a huge clearance sale (70% of a lot of items) so it's quite possible you can bag a bargain if your currently looking to adding a household items into you home. I nearly got carried away and coveted a 'snazzy' range of Alessi cutlery/table accessories (given a cheeky glass of wine or two beforehand I may indeed have found myself in the red over daft salt and pepper pots). House Shop is akin to an independent, suburban habitat the furniture and accessories are similar to those found in that particular store, though with seemingly lower prices. At the back of the store is the bed section (tis indeed like a Tardis in here) with designs ranging from 'Po Mo Tokyo' to 'Ironic Quaker'...or so I gathered. With more mugs than the Daily Mail readership and a card section to slightly concern Clinton's (the greeting card store not the Presidency obsessed US couple) the House shop provides a decent niche for home furnishing in this neck of the woods. Currently this business has opened up to nine stores in the North West (from a few in South Manchester to as far flung as Windermere in the lakes). Whilst I was browsing I happened across a pizza stone which I'd been after for years! Works an absolute treat. We have Italian relatives over next weekend so I'm gonna see if I can impress them with my crispy bottoms

STAY CLEAR. Due today to put in our kitchen. Had to go to…read morepremises in Didsbury to confirm our worse fears. They had gone into administration and we have lost all our money. Check out their history in Companies House - wish we had. Not the first time they pulled this stunt. They will of course reply saying that they have no record of us as a customer (check out other reviews). Facebook me and I'll be happy to provide proof. For independent proof contact their administrators Leonard CURTIS (Bury) and they will confirm that they are dealing with their current scam and dealt with their last. The telling thing is that there were no assets left to dispose of among their creditors - a planned exit.

I recently had a new kitchen fitted by Earle and Ginger Didsbury. What can I say? The service was…read moreexcellent, no question too silly and Mike and Vinny managed the project meticulously from the outset. I now have more space than ever - thanks to the magic corners and my pull out pantry is brilliant - I can get to all the jars at the back now! Thank you so much Earle and Ginger, if I ever move house I know who will be doing my kitchen. Keep up the good work!
