The shop at Kingston Lacy

Situated in the original kitchen block dating from 1776, the shop contains many original features including a rare example of a charcoal fired range installed in the 1780s. This provides a magnificent setting to look at our beautifully themed accessories which offer year-round inspiration for gifts and souvenirs, for you, your home or someone special.

Things maybe a bit different

The safety of staff, volunteers and visitors is our priority, therefore we will be introducing social distancing measures including:

Where necessary, we will limit the flow of people coming into our shops to ensure they don’t get too busy.
Hand sanitiser will be available for customers and colleagues to use, as well as extra cleaning products to wipe baskets.
Protective screens at till points.
Where possible, we will create separate entrances and exits, so that it’s easier to keep a safe distance from other customers.
Our staff and signs will reinforce these safety measures.
