Slow Down This Festive Period With Our Heartwarming Seasonal Treats!

Hello everyone! How are you all?  We're just popping on to let you all know that our heartwarming collection of festive treats has hit the website and our Christmas Shop is now open! Not one to rush the season's arrival (we never want to say goodbye to Autumn!) there is something lovely in embracing the changing seasons... tavern food, frosty walks and comfort tv! So whether it's our warming gingerbread latte fudge, our herbals for cold nights and mornings, or the glow of one of our gorgeous seasonal candles - we hope you find something that you love, or that makes that perfect token gift.

Easter Is Almost Here! Lighter Nights And New Routines!

Are You Ready For Krampus Night?! Check Out This "Kreepy" Tradition!

Hello and happy December! We can't quite believe it's already that time of year, although in all honesty these past few months have been met with equal parts wondering where the time has gone and a general feeling of being stuck - so we have mixed feelings about it! That being said, we are getting into the Christmas Spirit, and today has been one of clearing, cleaning and getting ready for the coming month. (We'll need to do it all again once that tree goes down, but between us - we quite like a good clean and sort!) We are however, really happy that we have something to look forward to and although we know that this Festive Season may...
