Farnham retail vacancy rate remains stable as demand for shops continues

Steady deal flow and new occupiers reflect an active retail market, says Curchod & Co

The retail property vacancy rate in Farnham remained unchanged in the third quarter of 2025, according to the latest figures compiled by Curchod & Co. The data shows continued strength in the local retail market, with new occupiers taking space and several additional shop units progressing towards completion.

During Q3, four retail lettings were completed across the town, including Tavola Di Famiglia Trattoria at 4 & 5 Town Hall Buildings, a phone repair shop at 2 South Street, a new nail and beauty salon at 28C Downing Street, and a soon-to-be-confirmed occupier at 4 Cambridge Place.

Curchod & Co also reported that three new units have gone under offer during the quarter, bringing the total number of properties currently under offer to five. The firm says this indicates sustained occupier demand but also highlights the longer legal processes that are now typical in bringing transactions to completion.

The number of completed deals in Q3 mirrors the four seen in Q2, suggesting a steady flow of retail lettings through 2025 and a consistent level of market activity.

Harry Ford of Curchod & Co commented: “The stability in the vacancy rate alongside the growing number of properties under offer shows that Farnham’s retail market remains in good health. While the legal process to complete transactions can take longer than in previous years, demand from independent and specialist retailers remains encouraging, and we are continuing to see new occupiers investing in the town centre.”

Curchod & Co’s quarterly update continues to underline Farnham’s resilience as a local retail destination, with consistent interest from businesses seeking space and a balanced rate of turnover across the market.
