Music Shops I Recommend in London, Hertfordshire & Bedfordshire
I often get asked by students and parents where to buy or hire violins, bows, and accessories. Below are trusted music shops and instrument specialists in London, Hertfordshire, and Bedfordshire that I regularly recommend for their service, quality, and support for students.
Bedfordshire
Octave is a friendly, independent music shop based in Dunstable, offering a range of instruments, accessories, and support for musicians of all levels. They are especially helpful for string players and regularly assist students and families in finding suitable violins, bows, and beginner instruments. I often recommend Octave to my students for their approachable service and willingness to guide players through choosing the right instrument
Hertfordshire
Thwaites Violins has been a fantastic and reliable place for many of our students to rent instruments. The staff are always helpful, knowledgeable, and very supportive when it comes to choosing the right violin size and quality for young learners.
The rental process is straightforward, and the instruments are always well-maintained and ready to play. It gives both parents and students real peace of mind knowing they’re getting good quality instruments as they progress.
