Magpies Nest opened in March 2013 in a tiny, tiny shop in Stalybridge selling handbags and accessories. The business continued to develop and grow and in 2016 we made a huge move into a larger store and expanded into giftware. We have always prided ourselves on putting our customers at the centre of what we do, and creating a positively memorable shopping experience. Our store is known for its quirky displays and excellent customer service. We source unique items supporting locally handmade businesses as well as stocking big brands usually found in larger high street and department stores. Magpies Nest has won a few awards along the way, which we are very proud of.
