Here at the Village Shop, we have filled our shelves with exciting Christmas gifts and goodies to tempt you and to make your Christmas go with a swing. We have a great selection of speciality biscuits, preserves, puddings and chocolates, including a wide range of Titchmarsh branded treats, not to mention the infamous Lancashire Bombs. You will find a variety of different cheeses, not normally stocked in the chiller from the beginning of December. Recently we introduced different wines to the Shop and hopefully you will get to try the odd bottle or two over the festive season! Our second batch of Titchmarsh Tipple No.1 will be available shortly and is proving very popular. This very nice craft gin, made locally in Northamptonshire, is just £25 a bottle and will make a great Christmas present, if you can bear to part with it…

Alongside the gin, you will find Two Birds Salted Caramel Vodka, Raspberry Vodka, Passion Fruit Vodka and Watermelon Gin. Our Christmas order form will be delivered shortly and you will be able to order bread, milk, cream, fruit, veg, pork pies and meat from H Johnson in Thrapston and Grasmere. This year Grasmere is offering a Christmas Essentials Kit and a Boxing Day Kit, details are included on the order form. Finally, if you are stuck for Christmas present ideas, let us put together a basket of goodies for you. Just choose your basket and contents and we will do the rest.

We will be showcasing our Christmas selections at the Christmas Fete in St Mary’s on 1st December and it would be great to see you there.
