At The Cowshed, truly good goods tell stories of integrity from the heart of local communities and makers. The shop is authentic, enticing and enchanting in every detail. Like the intersection between art gallery shop and farm padstal, with a high street curatorial hand weaving it all together. A wood-burning stove warms the space in winter, with cosy seating and worn-in Persians underfoot inviting you to take it easy.
The Cowshed at Spier entices sensorially on every level, with layers of fragrance and a sense of the human hand in every element, whether spun, carved, woven, knitted, hand loomed, picked from the garden, painted or paginated. As gifts, these come wrapped in layers of tissue, in ribbon-tied gift bags that make Cowshed gifts feel as good to give as they are to receive.
Browse from hand thrown, handspun and hand carved collectible homewares to books, toys, candles, bags and hats by local artisans and designers. In the back, you can find organic farm produce, our top wines and deli favourites, including Farmer Angus’s produce in the freezer. And, to one side, a full scale apothecary of healing teas and tinctures that beg to be sampled and explored. All of it with its own narrative of purpose and passion.
