Factory Outlets!

Baby_A

Hi

Anyone know where the factory outlets are for Monsoon and Clarks? I live near Croydon so the nearest one, dont mind a drive.

I recall seeing a Clarks in Bicester Village in Oxfordshir, cant rememeber if they had a Monsoon. Is there one closer to me?

Thanks

The full list of Bicester factory outlet shops is Bicester factory outlet list
and there is a Monsoon listed.
Don't know if there is a nearer outlet to Croydon.

There definitely is one in Bicester and it is a really good size shop. However, with all these places it is hit and miss - sometimes I have got some great bargains, last time I went there was nothing (still with a baby and toddler in tow it was hard to look!).

I don't know if there is anything closer to Croydon. Maybe it would be worth giving them a call to see if the store in Bicester can tell you. The phone number for Bicester village can be found here http://www.fashion-era.com/factory_outlets_shopping.htm and I'm sure they could put you through to the Monsoon store. (Sorry I'm still new to this so don't know if I can put phone numbers on here!).

Hope this helps and have a great time. Let me know if you get any bargains!!

Thanks do you know of any others instead of Bicester Village. Someone once mentioned Swindon, not sure where?

There's a Clarks factory outlet in McArthur Glen, Ashford, Kent. That's closer to you than Bicester Village but its still a good hour and 20 mins drive.

McArthur Glen is the brandname for factory shopping outlets. This is a link to their website with locations:

I live near to the one in Ashford, Kent and it is a really fantastic treasure trove of bargains. For example, I am wearing a Tmberland denim shirt (a nice fitted shape) which was originally £50 - but which was on offer for £10 at the new Timberland shop in the designer outlet - and I bought it on a day when they were doing an extra 40% off all their prices - so it cost me £6. I also stocked up on a few Christmas pressies at the same time.

It is really worth a visit and is close to the mainline Ashford station - or has a big car park (only 50p for 2 hours).

I just noticed that if you fill in a registration form, you can get a 10% discount voucher as well !!!!

By the way, it has a big Clarkes shoe outlet, but does not have Monsoon.

The Cheshire Oakes McArtherGlen has a large Monsoon and Clarks store, guess its a bit far for you travel. I'm planning a trip there in a couple of weeks.
