We're hiring!

Our little family-run gift shop in Hawkshead is looking for a weekend retail assistant. Working Saturdays and Sundays with additional days available for holiday cover.

We're a creative space full of lots of handmade gifts and local crafts. You'll be helping customers find the perfect gift, keeping the shop welcoming and using your creativity to make the displays look beautiful ✨

The shop gets pretty busy in the summer but during quiet moments (particularly in the winter!) we are fully supportive of you working on your own craft.

You'll need to be happy working independently but we'll provide plenty of support to make sure you feel comfortable running the shop.

Get in touch if you have any questions or drop us an email with your CV at [email protected]. You can also pop in the shop Saturday or Sunday and ask for Kim 😊

Now stocking Lakeland Dog Treats 🐾

100% natural and handmade locally in Ambleside, each flavour comes with its own benefits for your pup. They also make a lovely little gift for the dog lovers in your life 🐶

Our shop has always been dog-friendly, so we’ve placed these right by the till—perfect for those excitable pups with waggy tails (and their slightly nervous humans that don't want to navigate our shop full of glass 🤣).

Wendy makes each piece using dried flowers and natural fibres which really brings them to life. It's hard to capture just how intricate and beautiful these are so come see for yourself before they all find a new home!
