A fantastic jewellery shop in the heart of Bournemouth…read more If you love silver you need to look at this place. It has a fantastic range of earings, bracelets and necklaces, rings and toe rings. A lot of the jewellery is made with gems so there's a whole range of colours to choose from. Some are dainty and some are quite exuberant, and all points in between. The prices are very good too, in my opinion. At the back of the shop you start seeing polished stones as items on their own and then there's incense and burners and natural oils and all sorts of 'new age' type items. There are also some really interesting books on sale. The shop is busy, students from overseas find it, au pairs find it, everyone finds it. The service is good.

As soon as you walk in the door the staff are smiling, the aromatic smells hit you and the quiet music soothes you. It's like walking into a small haven of peace and quiet.

Located right in the middle of St Marys Street, which is right in the centre of town, it is extremely easy to find, but can get very crowded on busy days. Their clothing range is quite middle of the road, with a number of classic lines of standard trousers, skirts and tops - ideal for the office, but there are some more fashionable pieces in there. This branch stocks a very limited range of their speciality lines such as Petites.

Although this isnt the largest branch of Debenhams out there, it certainly ticks the boxes that any good department store should tick.

The range of clothing is excellent in all areas of ladies, mens and childrenswear, there is a good choice of accessories and footwear as well as homewares. Upstairs there is a cafe and a branch of Early Learning Centre which keeps the kids entertained on an otherwise dull shopping trip.

There are two floors to this department store, and each level has different products. Upstairs they have the small coffee shop which can get very busy. The toliets always seem to be broken and there's always a massive queue! Also amongst the top floor they sell childrenware, homeware and some ladies wear. Downstairs they sell ladies, mens and cosmetics and jewellery. The layout inside is always changing and sometimes when you want some help on the shop floor there never is anyone on hand to help or they end up passing you onto someone else from 'that' department, yet they all work under one roof! Overall they do sell 'some' nice items, now and then a bit pricey but throughout the year they do some good sales.
