Welcome to Bells Stores, a friendly British homeware journal written for people who care about the little things that make a house feel like a home. From the pan that finally sears a steak properly to the storage jars that bring order to a cluttered cupboard, we test, compare and recommend the everyday items that earn their place on your shelves. Our aim is simple: honest writing, practical advice and no fuss.
The site is run by Oliver Bennett, a Yorkshire-born writer who has spent the better part of two decades poking around kitchens, hardware shops and homeware aisles up and down the country. After years of being asked by friends and family which kettle to buy or how to keep a wooden chopping board in good nick, Oliver decided to gather it all in one place. Everything you read here is written in plain English, free of jargon, and meant to save you both time and money.
