If you find yourself in the Cotswolds, Amanda Brooks’ Stow-on-the-Wold boutique is always a must-visit, thanks to the owner’s expert eye for curating the most beautiful homewares and antiques. But if you can’t make it to Gloucestershire this year, don’t panic – Cutter Brooks has come to London courtesy of a Christmas interiors pop-up in Notting Hill. Brooks – who’s famed for her Christmas decorations – has transformed the space into a festive wonderland, complete with hand-painted baubles, papier-mâché Santas and garlands of fresh pine. Don’t leave without picking up some of Brooks’ own label table dressings and a set of artist Jess Wheeler’s brass candlesticks, which are made by hand in Wales.

Atelier278 x Ysso pop-up

London-based jewellery brand Ysso – derived from the Greek word for ‘gold’ – is hosting a Christmas pop-up shop in Notting Hill, bringing together some of their favourite brands. As well as fashion and beauty labels they’re also stocking pieces from British interiors brand Atelier278, who specialise in made-to-order travertine and marble tables. At the pop-up you’ll be able to shop from their more giftable range, which includes onyx bowls, cups and coasters.

Anya’s Grotto
Until 24 December
Now here’s a novel idea: a Santa’s grotto that’s as much fun for the grown-ups as it is for the kids. The ever-inventive Anya Hindmarch has opened a Christmas pop-up as part of Anya’s Village in Chelsea, complete with moonlit forests and crunchy snow underfoot. Walk through this winter wonderland and you’ll be greeted by Father Christmas, but adults will be most excited about the festive gift shop at the end, where you’ll be able to pick-up limited-edition Anya Hindmarch presents, including playful ceramics, cushions and games. The festive season never looked so chic.
