'Tis the season to be jolly, so don't let Christmas shopping be a chore: enjoy it in festive style, advises Sophie Dening.
Battling the crowds in a city-centre precinct can make Christmas shopping a grim endurance test. So why not take a different approach this year, and use it as an excuse for a short break away?
Turning my back on drearily uniform British high streets, I tracked down centres with a good range of independent shops, and came up with five of the most enjoyable destinations for Christmas shopping. For each venue, I have suggested – as well as the most appealing emporia – a lavish and a frugal buy, the best places to stay and eat, a treat to sustain you on your shopping expedition, and other things to do while you are in town.
