Welcome to Norwich! You’ve come to a magical city full of historic streets and markets, containing plenty of beautiful stores stacked with bits and bobs to make your space feel like your place.  

How can we make your university accommodation or new bedroom the cosiest and most comfortable place for your studies? Think potted plants, comfy cushions, colourful posters, statues, figures, blankets, throws, little rugs and more. Remember, cork boards are your friend… get collaging. Try ‘free prints’ to order pictures and make a collage of your friends and family back home. 

So, let’s get to know our way around the city for your ‘decor tour’. Norwich has all your basic chain stores like Primark, H&M home, M&S, B&M and Home Bargains. The city also has some of the best independent small businesses, which mainly occupy the famous Market and Norwich Lanes. I would recommend Elm, B’Leaf Plants and the new Søstrene Grene. Charity shops like British Heart Foundation and the Sue Rider on Bridewell Alley are great for second hand table and shelf fillers. Finally, the Flying Tiger in Castle Quarter shopping centre is perfect for homeware essentials on a budget!
