Whitcoulls

This is a good bookshop and it's got a great range of presents for children in here too - Lego etc.

We visited before Christmas and were able to get a diary and calendar for 50% off as well as a map book of the South Island for our trip down.

The store has free parking outside and is large, clean and well laid out.

With lots of choices you will find a gift, magazine or stationery.

Love this Whitcoulls store. Not the largest store, and more about stationery, magazines, games, then books. Would love Whitcoulls to return to being more about books. Nice staff, and really friendly and helpful. For a small store, stocks a lot of merchandise. Really nice store.

I really like that Whitcoulls has such a large range of kids books. I take my nieces here once a month to let them choose a new book - i think reading is important and i love that they have such a great selection to choose from.

Store is really cool, a great selection of books, gifts and toys. Do struggle to get the pram around the store though and feel they should be wary of that, my pram isn't huge. Staff not particularly friendly and I often feel as if I'm being watched
