Shopping at Wallington

Wallington's shops

On one side of the clocktower you'll find our main gift shop, stocked with a wide range of quality products, including many locally produced items, cards, books, toys, confectionary, home accessories, bags, scarves, jewellery, toiletries and gift ideas.  The second of Wallington's shops is situated on the other side of the clocktower and is full of seasonal items to inspire you including many garden and nature related products.   

In England, face coverings are required in indoor areas, except in cafés and tea-rooms, unless you're exempt. Protective screens also remain at till points for the time being.

Shop local

We believe it's important to support local businesses and in our main shop we sell a selection of hand picked products.  Read more about some of the local suppliers we're working with.

Connell & Hart

Diane Hart and Paul Connell live and work in Northumberland. Making jewellery since 1989 they use a method based on the Pâté de Verre technique involving arranging grains of coloured and clear glass in hand carved moulds and fusing them in a kiln.

Oakwood Soaperie

Oakwood Soaperie is a small independent business based in the North East. All the soaps are handmade from natural ingredients in small quality-controlled batches using pure plant oils and butters, essential oils and organically grown flowers from within the estate. Ceri also uses raw honey and beeswax from her father’s bees in the range of natural products she makes, as raw honey has naturally soothing and healing properties making it a perfect ingredient in skincare. All the products are suitable for vegetarians and most also suitable for vegans too. They are free from parabens, preservatives, palm oil and mineral oils and suitable for most skin types

The Pure Candle Co.

The Pure Candle Company craft hand-poured 100% soy wax candles in their Northumberland studio, using soy wax and fragrances sourced and created in the UK. The candle fragrances are inspired by nature to calm, soothe and delight your senses and are environmentally friendly in every way.

They use 100% soy wax which is ethically produced from sustainable sources. The candles are clean burning, with no smoking or leftover wax and it’s not just the candles themselves that are environmentally friendly. As soy wax is biodegradable and water soluble, it means the glass containers are easily washable, making them recyclable or reusable - they make perfect drinking glasses!        

Carol Nunan

Carol Nunan is an artist and printmaker. She considers herself extraordinarily lucky to live in a beautiful part of the UK, in the historic market town of Hexham, which is at the heart of Hadrian’s Wall country in Northumberland.

‘I’m inspired by the wide skies and broad landscapes of my adopted home of Northumberland. There is so much rich history here – Hadrian’s Wall and the Romans, Neolithic stones, bronze age and Border Reiver settlements, medieval castles and the shoreline. That is not to forget the wild and rare flora and fauna, the geology of the Whin Sill and last but not least, the spectacular dark skies at night.’
