What to expect when Harrods opens a new store just off the M4 in Bristol

It's the luxury department store that's synonymous with London itself.

But Harrods, which opened its iconic flagship store in the city's swanky Knightsbridge way back in 1849, soon looks set to launch a brand new branch just outside Wales.

Announced last year, the new addition is called H Beauty and will be based at Cribb's Causeway in Bristol.

However, its opening could be coming earlier than anticipated with signs having already gone up on site telling shoppers of its imminent arrival.

According to BristolLive, they read: "Hello Bristol. You look beautiful. Opening soon."

And the store doesn't just stock the latest and best beauty products around, as there will also be AI technology 'playtables’ where customers can test items virtually, alongside skincare stations, fast blow-dry stations and even a champagne bar.

As part of a mission to bring the Harrods beauty experience to locations outside London, the renowned retailer also recently opened H Beauty branches in Essex, Milton Keynes and Edinburgh.

Another is planned for Gateshead in the coming months.

Annalise Fard, Director of Home and Beauty at Harrods, said, "This is a hugely important and exciting milestone for Harrods, as we continue with our ambitious plans to expand our domestic footprint through H beauty.

"The incredible response we have had to our first two H beauty store openings not only reflects the ongoing demand for exceptional, high-quality retail experiences outside of London, but also the passion for beauty that exists amongst the customers we serve in these regions."
