The Lemon House

A tightly edited homewares and lifestyle boutique on Peel Street, stocking the kind of Australian labels, Elk, Nancybird, Circa and Glasshouse among them, that rarely reach a regional city of this size without a long drive. The range runs from home fragrance, ceramics and kitchenware to women's fashion, accessories and a well-chosen shelf of books and stationery, with children's clothing folded in. Country Style has named it among regional New South Wales's better boutiques, and the appeal is in the curation rather than the volume: a shop that treats gift-buying and small domestic objects with more care than the larger stores nearby. It gives Tamworth an independent, design-led retailer to match the ambitions of its main street.
