Our Story
Kemps General Store was founded in 2017 by Liz Kemp, a shopkeeper's daughter and passionate advocate of independent retail. Kemps Books was added in 2020, following expansion to bigger premises.
"At Kemps I want to delight and inspire customers with a wonderful collection of lovely things and a great customer experience"
Our store is at the heart of its local community, offering a relaxing and friendly environment to find gifts or books, to be inspired or just to exchange smiles and browse.
You'll find a range of beautiful and unusual products here, made by independent artisans and producers across the UK, alongside a wonderfully curated collection of books for everyone.
