It’s that time of the year when you’re scrambling to find the right Christmas present for some of the lucky ladies in your life. Whether it’s for a wife, mum, sister, girlfriend there is big pressure to make sure that you find the perfect present. We might be able to help with this guide of Christmas gift ideas for her.
If you are looking to score major points this Christmas then a stop in at the Gift Shop at the National Heritage Centre is a must to get your hands on a selection of jewellery items currently in stock. These are an especially fantastic gift if the person you are buying them for is also into horseriding, be it hunting, racing or any other equestrian pursuits. With any of these under the tree waiting to be unwrapped you can be certain that you’ll be in the good books long after the festive season.
If you’re looking to add something to a gift, especially if you know that the person loves things for their house then this SKANDINAVISK VINTER X3 MINI CANDLE SET is a great idea. You can head to Goldings on the High Street to pick this up and browse through their store to see if there is anything else that may take your fancy as a good gift. Tell them we sent you.
Speaking of Goldings, you can pick up these glam Le Chameau Giverny Jersey Lined Boots, perfect for a day going point-to-pointing or for an afternoon stroll in the countryside or perhaps even on a Discover Newmarket Tour on any of the mornings that involve spending time on the gallops. These are a must-have item for rainy winter days .
We also mentioned these brilliant Polo Belts in our Christmas Gift Guide For Him but the truth is that these leather belts from Busy Bee at the top of the High Street also make a great stocking filler for ladies. They’re another must-have item in the wardrobe and just round off an outfit in the best way! Nothing like a bit of colour. With loads of patterns to pick from it may take a while to decide on just one!

Whether it’s a lavish Champagne Afternoon Tea & Tour at the Jockey Club Rooms, a place on our Feature Tour, which includes a divine lunch at The Packhorse Inn in Moulton, or Dalham Hall Stud Tour, with a lunch at the exquisite Bedford Lodge Hotel & Spa you can’t go wrong with any of these.
