Whether for yourself or someone else, there are treats aplenty to be discovered in our National Trust shop and second-hand bookshop. Every purchase you make helps us care for these special places.
National Trust shop
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.
Pop into the shop to browse our range of home furnishings, fashion accessories, kitchen ceramics and tempting seasonal food and drink.

Colourful patterns to brighten up your home
Our garden shop offers a great range of products and gifts, stocking everything from gardening tools, books and decorations.
Treat yourself to a little memory of your visit to the garden with our seasonal plant collection or pick up a garden ornament if your fingers are less than green.
Help us in conserving our peat bogs – one of our most valuable yet vulnerable natural habitats – by picking up something for your garden from the choice of vibrant plants. All the plants we sell are grown in peat-free compost.
We support local makers
We have a range of products from Dorset, including honey made from our own bees when in season. Maintaining the hives on the estate is an important part of outdoor conservation at Kingston Lacy. The raw honey produced by the bees is bottled and ready to take home from the shop.
Second-hand bookshop
Just opposite the shop, Kingston Lacy’s second-hand bookshop has something for everyone including children and adult fiction, all categories of non fiction, Folio society, Art and collectable Vintage.

What's in stock?
We receive frequent donations of books and regularly restock our shelves so there are always new gems waiting to be found. We have an excellent selection of fiction and non-fiction for adults and children, including some special, sought after Vintage, Art and Folio Society books.
The bookshop is run by a team of knowledgeable and friendly volunteers who enjoy creating a well-stocked bookshop for you to enjoy.
We couldn't do it without you
All funds raised from second-hand book sales go towards garden conservation projects. To keep up with our fantastic collection we are always in need of book donations. If you are looking to clear some space on your shelves, we'd be delighted to receive your books; there's an area to drop them off at the end of the Laundry building and a store room.
