What’s Hot in Kingfisher Cards & Gifts, Sidmouth

To say retailer Tiffany Leach is rather busy is something of an understatement and staycationing in the South West this summer has been off the scale. As well as running Kingfisher Cards & Gifts in Sidmouth (which has reached the finals of The Retas in the Best Newcomer South category) on Devon’s Jurassic Coast, Tiffany is juggling this with running her ice cream parlour in the south Devon seaside town of Dawlish!
