Oundle Wharf continues to establish itself as a
destination retail & dining experience with the
introduction of new businesses Aga, Amps
Fine Wines and Hambleton Bakery, whose
shops now join Errismore Flowers, Gorilla
Firm, Nene Extreme Adventures, Nene
Valley Brewery and the Tap & Kitchen. With
ample parking and a variety of businesses who
excel in their own field, the Wharf welcomes all
guests seven days a week.

The exquisite new AGA Oundle store was
officially opened in November just prior to a
very successful Christmas Extravaganza,
which saw all the Wharf businesses collectively
organise interesting stalls and entertainment.
The team at AGA Oundle would be delighted to
welcome you to browse their comprehensive
selection of AGA’s and enjoy a chat with the
knowledgeable and helpful staff.

You will also find a large selection of cookware
items on offer, designed for use on conventional
cookers and on the AGA’s. Informative monthly
AGA demonstrations will be held throughout
the year, details of these can be found at

Amps Wine Merchants, the fourth-generation
independent wine merchant based in Oundle’s
Market Street since 1901, has set up a sister
shop at the Wharf offering the same friendly
and knowledgeable service for which it is
famous. Combining a passion for wines
of character, often from small independent
wineries, with total dedication to the discerning
wine drinker, Amps Wine Merchants has a free
wine tasting machine to let you try before you
buy, and offers late night opening until 7pm
from Tuesday to Saturday.

Wholesaler and florist Errismore Flowers
is open to trade and the public. Flowers are
supplied directly from Holland, so you cannot
get fresher. In-house florists qualified in all
aspects of floral design can arrange bouquets
and displays for all occasions and budgets,
and you will also find a range of gift items,
centrepiece hire, chair covers and balloons at
the shop.

Opening in March 2016, the Oundle Wharf
branch of Hambleton Bakery was the
latest of six shops to be established since
the bakery first started in Exton in 2008.
The other shops can be found in Market
Harborough, Oakham, Stamford and
West Bridgford. None of the delicious,
hand-made artisan products have any
additives or preservatives, and the long
fermentation methods in the bread making
ensure that the bread has superior taste,
longer keeping qualities and is easy to
digest. You can stock up on chutneys,
granolas, honey and jams too.

and easily accessible range of bikes, components,

Nene Extreme Adventures
offer canoeing and kayaking
trips as well as events for
schools and businesses. The
range of boats includes stable
and rugged single kayaks,
inflatables and open four-man
canoes suitable for families,
and can be hired by the hour
or by the day. The option to
camp overnight makes it perfect
for bonding with the kids over
the campfire after a beautiful
paddle on the River Nene.
Alternatively, canoes can be
dropped off at designated
points along the river and
later collected, meaning you
need never paddle upstream
- the ultimate luxury! Popular
summer holiday clubs for kids
include canoeing, kayaking,
climbing and archery, and you
can learn bush craft skills and
cook on an open fire.

Nene Valley Brewery produces an extensive
range of beers on site. You can have a pint

and firkins. Tours are available where you
can see the hard work that goes into making
award-winning beer, learn how different types of beer are
crafted, sample the malted barley and smell the fresh zesty
hops. Tutored tasting sessions are also on offer, where you
sample a range of beers, and run tours twice a month at £10
per head. Dates depend on demand and staff availability,
check the website for details.

Award-winning Tap & Kitchen
serves coffee, lunch & dinner
Monday to Saturday as well as an
amazing Sunday lunch. Expect
to see craft beers, home-baked
pastries, home-cured meats, homemade
ice creams and everything in between. If you purchase
a cake or pastry at Hambleton Bakery you can bring it to the
Tap & Kitchen and enjoy it there with your coffee.

There will be a new Oundle Wharf
website coming in the New Year
but, in the meantime, check out
www.tapandkitchen.com and social
media @tapandkitchen for news and
events at the waterside development.
