The 5 Best Gift & Specialty Shops in Ashbourne, England

Once upon a time, something wonderful happened... Julie the shopkeeper believed in making a difference. With her belief, passion, hard work and the support of loved ones, the villagers and her dedicated team, she created the village rainbow to the wonderful shop it is today! The shop has been continuously growing and Julie has extended her range to homemade local ice cream, one-off pieces of furniture, quirky gifts, cards, jewellery and many more unique items we love... The village rainbow enjoys watching the joy and smiles it continues to bring, by giving first class customer service, helping you get that perfect present for a friend or family member, and giving the people of Ashbourne a beautiful shop to have a look around daily :)
