Westbourne is our newest shop, which opened in the Dorset town in 2024.
Located on Poole Road, the shop is a stylish, high street store with a fantastic array of clothing, bric-a-brac and household items.
We celebrated the shop’s first birthday in March and we’ve loved becoming part of the local community. Here’s to many more years to come.
