Exeter's Antiques Centre On The Quay

Ever stumbled upon a place that's like a time machine, a treasure trove, and a history lesson all rolled into one? Welcome to Exeter's Antiques Centre On The Quay, where the past comes alive in the most delightful way.

Step into the past, one step at a time

Picture this: You're walking along the picturesque Quay in Exeter, the sun's out, and suddenly, you spot a building that looks like it's straight out of a Harry Potter movie. That's your cue to step inside and let the adventure begin.

This isn't your average antique shop. Oh no, it's a labyrinth of over 60 dealers, each with their own little world of history for sale. It's like a giant jigsaw puzzle of time, and you're the detective trying to piece it together.

Meet the cast of characters

Here, you'll meet Mavis, the lady with the most amazing collection of vintage hats. She's got stories to tell, and she's not shy about sharing them. Then there's Bob, the guy who's been collecting clocks since he was a kid. His room is a symphony of ticking time, and it's mesmerizing.

And let's not forget Susan, the queen of quirk. She's got a knack for finding the weirdest, most wonderful things. Her room is a treasure trove of oddities that'll make you go, "What on earth is that?" and "How did that even exist?"

Quirky finds that'll make your day

Now, let's talk about the good stuff - the finds! Ever seen a vintage diving helmet? You will here. Or how about a 1920s gramophone? Yep, they've got that too. And if you're into the weird and wonderful, prepare to be amazed by the giant teapot that's big enough to hide a small child in.

Now, here's where it gets really interesting. You know how every good adventure has a secret room? Well, this place has one too. It's hidden, it's mysterious, and it's filled with the most amazing collection of vintage posters you've ever seen.

But shh, don't tell anyone I told you about it. It's our little secret.
