Con Amore is a gift shop in Stratton, a small village just north of Cirencester.
Rather than stocking the usual tourist fare, the shop carries a curated selection of items with genuine appeal—stylish homewares, distinctive cards, and decorative pieces, many drawing on local inspiration. It's the kind of place where browsing tends to yield something worth taking home rather than mass-produced alternatives you'll forget about.
Stratton itself has a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere than Cirencester, which sits only a short walk or drive away and serves as the area's main hub. Cirencester, known as the Capital of the Cotswolds, has more extensive shopping and dining options plus significant Roman heritage worth exploring if you're in the neighbourhood. Many visitors find Stratton a useful stopping point when moving between different parts of the Cotswolds, and Con Amore makes for a worthwhile visit if you're after something more thoughtfully chosen than a standard souvenir.
Whether you're basing yourself in Cirencester or simply passing through the village, the shop rewards a leisurely look around. You're likely to discover something that genuinely speaks to you—the sort of find that actually means something rather than just filling a gap in your luggage.
