What's in the Box -- and Where It Comes From

• 120g Geranium and Bergamot Herb Garden Soap -- an extra-large, long-lasting bar handmade in our own Malton workshop. Geranium and bergamot essential oils give a fresh, herbal, slightly floral scent that is unmistakably grown-up and natural. Rich in olive oil and coconut oil.
• Lavender Hand and Body Cream (60ml) -- a generous 60ml jar of our popular lavender cream. Coconut oil and shea butter based, water-free and concentrated. Lavender essential oil is calming, soothing and one of the most well-evidenced natural skincare ingredients available. Particularly effective on dry and sensitive skin.
• Woollen socks (one pair, size 4-7) -- made from locally sourced wool by our friend Mark at his restored woollen mill in Bradford. Proper Yorkshire wool socks: warm, durable and the kind of thing you actually want to receive rather than just be given. Mark's mill is part of a proud Bradford textile tradition that we are delighted to support.
• Palm oil-free Cosy Cottage milk chocolate (90g bar) -- handmade in York for us by our friend Linda, whose wonderful team includes people with a range of different abilities. Every bar is made with genuine skill and care, and buying it directly supports meaningful, inclusive employment in the heart of Yorkshire.

Everything is presented in one of our exclusive Cosy Cottage gift boxes, designed by one of our local artist partners and frequently reused by customers. All packaging is plastic-free -- recyclable cardboard or plant-derived compostable materials.

The Lavender Cream -- Worth Knowing About

The lavender hand and body cream in this box has attracted some remarkable feedback over the years:

"I'm blown away by this cream. I suffer with severe eczema on my hands and it has nearly cleared up after 3-4 days of use. My partner also suffers with psoriasis and it has made a huge difference to his condition. It instantly soothes and stops any itching. Honestly amazed."

Verified customer

We don't make medical claims for our products, but lavender essential oil has a long and well-documented history of use for dry, reactive and inflamed skin -- and our cream contains nothing that could aggravate sensitive skin further. No parabens, no SLS, no sulphates, no mineral oils, no artificial fragrance.

Made in Yorkshire, For Yorkshire (and Everyone Who Loves It)

The soap and cream are made in our own workshop in Malton, North Yorkshire, in small, low-energy batches using UK-sourced ingredients. The chocolate is made in York by Linda and her team. The socks come from Mark's restored woollen mill in Bradford. We know the people who make every item in this box -- they are our friends and long-standing local suppliers, not anonymous factories.

This is what local actually means.
