This gorgeous interiors boutique specialises in shabby-chic furniture (think pastel-coloured, country-kitchen tables, white-washed, glass-fronted bookcases and wicker garden rockers) alongside unusual accents – a vintage apothecary cabinet, say, or a mounted ram’s skull. Everything, whether a hand-made contemporary piece or a vintage one-off, is carefully chosen – you won’t be the first to ask helpful staff whether they can deliver abroad (they can!).

The Dutch are renowned for their green fingers, and this bloom boutique has been attesting to the national talent for more than two decades. Staff are passionate, encyclopedic in their knowledge and committed to quality – they’ll happily tailor seasonal bouquets to your budget, using high-quality cut flowers that last for weeks. Potted plants, too, are anything but run-of-the-mill.

When children’s author Karina Schaapman decided to illustrate her books with dioramas painstakingly built from scrap materials, she didn’t expect the characters and sets to take on a life of their own! This quirky family business: a shop-cum-museum-cum-studio selling the (widely translated) books, build-your-own model kits and other mousey souvenirs is a unique experience not to be missed.
