Dorothy House

By searching on Yelp I went out of my way to go there, then I was told by the neighbor that Dorothy House store had gone out of business/moved out the location for more than 3 years but Yelp recommended #1 when I searched "VINTAGE" in Bath!!

Dorothy House is a local charity which helps to provide support and funding for its hospice in Bath. Not only is it a very worthwhile cause, but this particular spot on Abbey Gate Street is one of the best charity shops in Bath.

Luckily for me, and other bargain hunters, the kind rich residents of Bath are also generous, donating their barely worn designer labels to Dorothy House. These pieces, obviously, tend to get snapped up quickly so it can be a bit hit and miss. I did once get a Karen Millen evening dress for just £15 - which may sound pricey for a charity shop, but I think it's fair given the designer tag.

If you have time to spare, also check out their shops on Argyle Street and Moorland Road.
