Think that lamp shop along by Conforama has gone - its now a cheap clothes shop. However lots of lamps in Casa ,Leroy Merlin and Conforama itself. Also they stock them in Aki and Izi stores.

The proper lamp shop has gone (I think) but the other household type shop is still there (or was!) and that had a good selection of lamps last time I was there. I bought most of mine from there rather than the proper lamp shop.

Aahh yes -you mean the shop between Conforama and Casa - I didnt realise that they sold lamps - always looks quite expensive in there ?
The old lamp shop at the end is now a sort of discount shop with mainly cheap clothes and other bits and pieces.

The lamo shop next to Conforama closed and moved to Val De Pariaso.

This is a link to the shop in Parchal. It has the biggest selection that we could find.

It took us ages to get lamps for our property.
As mentioned previously, they all seem to be really expensive,
no BHS equivalent. And very fancy.
We found the best choice at Leroy Merlin, opp Guia Shopping (and I am fussy)
