We checked 17 High Wycombe and Marlow shops, from Eden to The Marlow Bookshop, for what they sell, opening hours and addresses. Updated November 2026.

High Wycombe and Marlow have 17 shops worth a Christmas shopping trip in 2026, and this guide puts them in one place with opening hours, addresses and what each one sells. Eden, The Marlow Bookshop, Twenty Three Living and Rebellion’s brewery shop are the names most people land on. Every entry was checked on 5 November 2026 against the shop’s own site or, for three Eden stores, Eden’s listing.

We have not shopped at any of these for this guide, and nothing here is a review. Most of the independents are in Marlow, while High Wycombe’s shopping is mainly in Eden and at John Lewis, so we say where a shop is part of a group or chain. Shops often change their hours close to Christmas, so check before a special trip.

High Wycombe town centre: Eden

1. Eden Shopping Centre

Eden is High Wycombe’s shopping centre, and national chains make up much of its store list. Its news page says Yankee Candle has a Christmas pop-up opposite River Island, open throughout the Christmas period.

Eden says individual stores may keep different hours from the centre, and it had not listed special Christmas hours when we checked. Its car park is open 24 hours and is cashless.

It charges £2 for up to two hours, £3 for up to three and £2.50 all day on a Sunday.

6. John Lewis, Holmers Farm Way

The town’s John Lewis department store is out at the Cressex Centre, not in the town centre. It is part of the national John Lewis Partnership.

The store’s page says the phone line goes to its contact centre, so it suggests visiting to speak to someone in the shop. We could not read the store’s opening times on the day we checked, so look at its page before you set off.

Parking and getting there

We found no announcement of free Christmas parking from Buckinghamshire Council for 2026 when we checked on 5 November. In 2025, the Henley Standard reported free parking after 10am on two December Saturdays, in the council car parks serving high streets. They included Wakeman Road in Bourne End and Dean Street, Liston Road, Pound Lane and others in Marlow. That is no promise for this year, but it is worth checking in late November.

Our High Wycombe parking guide has the town’s car parks and charges. If you are coming by rail, see our Christmas trains and travel page.

How we chose

We started from the shops listed on Eden’s site and My Marlow’s shopping directory, then added shops from public listings and kept those that sell things people give as presents. We kept a shop only if we could read its own site, or its Eden listing, on 5 November 2026. We also looked for closure notices. Eden’s stores, F.Hinds and John Lewis are the chain entries, and each says so.

Some places stayed out because we could not confirm them on the day. These include Marlow Toymaster, Wellington Jewellers and Rococo in Marlow; Risborough Gallery and The Daisy Chain in Princes Risborough; and The Lemon Tree in Bourne End. That does not mean any of them has closed. We could not check a gift shop in Princes Risborough on its own site, although the town has a market on Thursdays, 9am to 3pm.

When is late night Christmas shopping in Marlow in 2026?

Visit Marlow lists the Marlow and District Chamber of Commerce’s late night shopping evening on Thursday 3 December 2026, with High Street shops open late, gift stalls in the road and carols from local school children. We found no equivalent late night date for High Wycombe when we checked on 5 November.

We found no announcement for 2026 when we checked on 5 November. In 2025 Buckinghamshire Council gave free parking after 10am on two December Saturdays in the council car parks serving high streets. Eden’s own car park charges £2 for up to two hours, or £2.50 all day on a Sunday.

Are shops in High Wycombe and Marlow open on Sundays before Christmas?
