The Store
Welcome to the Store by The Aficionados - our online shop for our much-loved travel & style magazines, as well as our limited edition Über Tote Bag, made in Portugal and big enough to fill with goodies, the picnic, the beach run, and enough toys to entertain a whole family.
Being tactile by nature is something that rocks our boat – so no wonder then that our love of fonts, print and paper stock is part and parcel of what defines The Aficionados. The Aficionados in print is a series of directory magazines about the culture of travel with style edits about hotels, private houses and creative lifestyles. Our travel inspired magazines showcase our encounters with interesting places to stay and incorporate our second love of all things crafted. Sensory editions like Alchemists of Italy, Casa Gorgeous, Blueprint Beauts, Neu Heritage and, our latest, Farmhouse Fabulous celebrate the diversity of concepts, dreamers and those people who made us smile.
To fellow papyrophiliacs (those who love paper) keep up the obsession.
No Ordinary Hotel Directory
Aficionados of design, architecture and interior concepts of style hotels will love flicking through the series of magazine directories illustrating the hotels, travel culture and lifestyle. Anchored to specific genres of hotel design, The Aficionados print editions: Farmhouse Fabulous, Casa Gorgeous, Blueprint Beauts and Neu Heritage take the reader through the creation narratives.
A sourcebook for hoteliers, travellers, style aficionados and for those who want home inspiration, these compilations showcase the interiors from a one-bedroom Highland refuge to the cocooning forms of a mountain retreat.

The Store
As established purveyors of style, design and provenance since 2009, an integral characteristic of our riveting hotel collection, we have along the way gathered many a kindred friend, the makers of the things we would want to have at home in the lounge, or stacked neatly in the larder or a printed piece of beauty to gleam.
The Store is our seasonal emporium, a lovely cohesive list of a dozen or so nice things that is updated quarterly in line with the seasons, often just a handful of items, like our limited edition über tote, made in Portugal and big enough to fill with goodies, the picnic, the beach run, and enough toys to entertain a whole family.
Our own publications, the style-led hotel directories of interior design, are joined by friends – page turners that we always have on the desk by the likes of Monocle, and we hand select products from our makers: Crafted perfumes to olive oils, beach towel to that fluffy companion for the slopes.
If you want to be in know first, then ensure that you sign up for the newsletter for the quarterly updates where we feature those little creative threads under our umbrella: the Store.
We link you to the right pages of everything we feature, so no middlemen. Potter through our limited offerings from our friends and the kinfolk, we want to support and cherish, sourced, just like our hotels, with care.
