About
We are an award-winning store in the very heart of Wellington, a charming, leafy, Somerset market town at the foot of the Blackdown Hills. Home to over 70+ different shops offering thousands of homeware, gifts, jewellery, soft furnishings, plants, art, ceramics, stationery, toys, glassware etc. many of which are handcrafted locally by our talented traders. We also sell clothes, antiques and collectable items.
My name is Cato Cooper and I run The Emporium Somerset together with my husband and my lovely team. Housed in an elegant Victorian chapel on Mantle Street, just a 5 minute drive from the M5 J26.
This makes us the perfect destination for all your shopping needs, wherever you live in the West country. Free parking is available for an hour on the road outside the shop. We’re happy to offer help with carrying heavy items as well as free advice with all your shopping needs, whether you are looking for a special gift for a loved one, or simply need something measuring to check its size suits your home. If you are looking something specific, with our extensive maker and crafter contacts we’ll do our very best to assist you.
We look forward to warmly welcoming you to our store soon. Cato xx
