Our shop in Edinburgh

Diana Forrester was established in 1997 to offer stylish accessories for the home and garden at affordable prices. The shop is at 22 North West Circus Place, Stockbridge in a beautiful Georgian building on the north edge of the New Town in Edinburgh.

The shop is laid out over two floors and has an eclectic emporium feel to it. We don’t do souvenirs and novelty Scottish gifts, just good quality, design-led homeware, furniture and accessories including a bold range of well made costume jewellery. Goods are sourced from all over the world, with a strong collection of items from France.

Stockbridge has something of a village atmosphere about it, although it is only a ten to fifteen minute walk from Edinburgh city centre. That sense of being in a more rural setting is even more palpable when taking the scenic route to Stockbridge along The Water of Leith walkway and bicycle route. The river connects Stockbridge with the Dean Village and Inverleith and the famous Botanic gardens are just a stroll away.

Gentrification in recent years has not killed the area's bohemian vibe with it’s basement pubs, quirky cafés and antique shops but Stockbridge is now known for it’s range of stylish and elegant shops most of which are independent retailers. With our neighbours Farrow & Ball, Anta, Zanzero (sister vincaffé to Centotre in George St) and Jeffreys Interiors, Diana believes that North West Circus Place is the most relaxed and stylish shopping area in Edinburgh.

Diana is usually in the shop but her enthusiastic staff, Linzi and Jenny are there to help you find the perfect product and they’ll gift wrap it beautifully free of charge. Easy meter parking is available close-by and the best news is that on Saturdays and Sundays, parking in Stockbridge is free!

Open from 10 until 6 from Monday to Saturday and from 12 until 4 on Sundays.
