- Check the upstairs section for vintage clothing, textiles, and smaller decorative pieces that complement the main floor furniture collection.
- Allow at least 45 minutes to an hour for browsing, as the carefully curated collection rewards leisurely exploration rather than quick visits.
- Park opposite the shop at the Forum car park for convenient access and to avoid searching for street parking in the town center.
- Call ahead if you're searching for a specific style or period piece, as the proprietor may be able to help locate items or provide information about upcoming acquisitions.

A Personal Approach to Vintage Retail
Now Vintage represents a deliberate response to the challenges facing independent retail in the digital age. Rather than competing solely on price or convenience, the shop prioritizes creating a retail experience so welcoming and personal that customers return repeatedly. This philosophy is embedded in every aspect of the business, from the carefully curated selection of vintage and antique pieces to the attentive service that greets visitors upon arrival. The proprietor, Sarah Somers, has built the shop around the principle that customer service is not merely a transaction but the heart of the business itself.Treasures Across Multiple Categories
The shop's inventory spans several complementary categories, making it a destination for different types of shoppers. Antique furniture forms a significant portion of the collection, featuring pieces ranging from Victorian to mid-century styles. Beyond furniture, Now Vintage stocks homewares, decorative objects, gifts, and second-hand furnishings that appeal to those seeking unique items for their homes. The variety ensures that whether you're searching for a statement piece, a functional vintage find, or a thoughtful gift, the shop offers something of interest. Each item has been selected with an eye toward quality and character, reflecting the proprietor's commitment to offering genuine vintage treasures rather than mass-produced reproductions.The Cirencester Location and Accessibility
Situated on West Way in Cirencester, a picturesque market town in the Cotswolds, Now Vintage occupies a convenient position near the town center. The shop is located opposite the Forum car park, making it easily accessible for visitors arriving by car. Cirencester itself is a charming destination known for its Roman heritage, Georgian architecture, and thriving local community, and Now Vintage fits naturally into this cultural landscape. The town's pedestrian-friendly streets and nearby amenities make the shop an ideal stop for those exploring Cirencester's independent retail offerings.Creating a Relaxed Shopping Environment
The interior of Now Vintage has been deliberately designed as a welcoming space where browsing is encouraged and time spent is valued. Rather than a cramped or overwhelming warehouse aesthetic, the shop presents its collection in an organized, approachable manner that invites exploration. The upstairs section houses additional clothing and textile items, adding another dimension to the shopping experience. This thoughtful presentation reflects Sarah Somers' vision of creating not just a place to buy vintage goods, but a destination where visitors feel genuinely welcomed and can enjoy the process of discovery.Quality and Curation Over Volume
What distinguishes Now Vintage from larger chain retailers or online marketplaces is its commitment to curation. Rather than stocking every available vintage item, the shop focuses on quality pieces that have been personally selected. This approach means that each visit may reveal different treasures, as inventory evolves with new acquisitions. For collectors, decorators, and those seeking authentic vintage pieces with character and history, this selective approach offers a more rewarding shopping experience than browsing endless online listings.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
