Freda and Bert
Unit 10, Burwash Manor Barns, New Road, Cambridge, CB23 7EY
Nestled among the other lovely indie shops at Burwash Manor, Freda and Bert is a small but mighty indie gift shop with a big heart. They’ve been part of the Burwash family of traders for over seven years now and are known for their beautifully curated collection of gifts, all chosen with love and an eye for the unique by owner Dawn Hookway.
Freda and Bert is all about celebrating the joy of finding something a little different – especially from independent brands and makers. The team behind the shop is small, friendly, and seriously passionate about all things indie. They love discovering new products and introducing their customers to items they might not have seen before.
The shop stocks a brilliant mix of gifts for new arrivals, kids, tweenagers, ladies, and gents – plus a small (but ever-growing) collection of lovely home accessories. The range is always changing, so there’s a good chance you’ll stumble across something new every time you pop in… and sometimes even while they’re still unpacking it!
Whether you’re after a thoughtful card, a quirky book, a tasty bar of chocolate, a puzzle, some jewellery, or even a new favourite scent, Freda and Bert has something for everyone. Oh – and speaking of cards – they reckon their card and gift wrap selection is one of the best around, with over 20 brilliant brands on the shelves. Need your gift wrapped? Just ask! They’re always happy to help.
Freda and Bert is a shop that truly loves what it does – supporting indie makers, championing creativity, and helping customers find something that feels just right.
Definitely worth a visit next time you’re at Burwash Manor.
