A good gift shop makes choosing easier by grouping items by person, occasion and budget, and by having something for last-minute needs. In a village like Martinborough, popular with visitors on wine and weekend trips, shops often stock New Zealand-made items and local products, so it is worth asking who made a piece and checking labels for origin. Go in with a rough idea of the recipient's age and interests and a spending limit, then ask staff for suggestions, since they see what people buy most. Check items are sturdy and complete, and ask about wrapping, or posting if you are travelling. Small-town shops often keep their own hours, especially outside summer, so it helps to check before you go. Regulars browse slowly, as the best finds are often tucked away.
For visitors and locals around Martinborough Square, Roam Martinborough is a place to look for a present.
