Basingstoke Toy Shops

With a population of 150,000 people, Basingstoke is now an affluent town with low unemployment and an excellent selection of shops - including several quirky independent toy shops.

In 2002, the new Festival Place Shopping Centre was opened, which is home to all the main High Street stores such as Build-A-Bear Workshop and Hawkin's Bazaar. If you're prepared to travel a little further afield however, you will have no problems finding some terrific little independent toy shops such as The Faraway Tree in Overton and Loddon Valley Garden Toys in Old Basing. This family-run Basingstoke toy shop specialises in TP activity toys and products from Radio Flyer Inc.
