Is it the idyllic setting in Last Drop village? The stunning range of hand
crafted jewellery on offer? Well, that certainly helps make shopping at The Milestone a memorable
experience – but, it is the sheer enthusiasm and expertise offered by the owners, Judith &
Harry Holt that will make your visit unforgettable.
The Milestone was opened in 1982 and since then the Holt's expertise in
cutting, polishing and setting gemstones has established them as a leading gemstone jeweller.

Gemstones from all over the world are selected to ensure a unique and most
spectacular range. As a Fellow of the Gemmological Association, Judith can test and authenticate all the
stones sold in the shop.
The Milestone keeps a wide selection of unset gems that can be set to your
own design, by skilled gold and silversmiths.
