Family-made lavender soap and skincare that smells divine

Welcome to Gower Lavender, where the products are handmade, local and lovely, and the planet is at the heart of everything we do. We’re a small family company set up in 2017 by local couple Rae Howells and Phil Poucher. What started with a few lavender plants in our garden and a crazy idea about growing in partnership with mother nature, is now three lavender patches across the outstandingly beautiful Gower peninsula, and a range of gorgeous

lavender soaps, lavender hand creams, aromatherapy pillow sprays, lavender syrup and lavender hearts that we sell through independent retailers, at markets, or send out from us to you across the UK. We grow in harmony with nature, allowing pollinators to feed before our crop is lovingly brought in by hand, and then made into luxurious products and gift sets that we package in eco-friendly compostable boxes. We hope you enjoy exploring our eco luxury range.

It’s the question everyone’s asking at the moment: “so, how’s it going at the farm?” And here’s the answer! 

Loads going on, though mainly we’ve been busy trying to save these beautiful old farm buildings from decades of neglect. Two shipping containers are now in place too, which will help us with the build short term, and might evolve into different kinds of spaces for the business in time.

We’ve found some treasures and encountered beautiful wildlife, and of course the bees have been as busy as always in the lavender. Lots more to come but hope this little glimpse gives you a peep into what we’re up to.

Can you spot the red kite?

Beautiful pink lavender! 💕💖 How stunning is this?? 

People are often surprised to discover that not all lavender is purple, but this stunning variety (called ‘Rosea’) shows pink lavender at its finest. It is currently the star of the show in our lavender patch, and it’s not only popular with people - it’s also absolutely full of bees. 

What do you reckon? Shall we put some in at the farm? 💜💖

It’s the big outbuildings reveal! We’ve been at the farm for two weeks now and I’ve finally had five minutes to film the barns so you can have a little tour around. The phrase ‘bit of a doer-upper’ springs to mind, doesn’t it? 🫣🤣

They might be a bit derelict but you can see these buildings have good bones, and once the ivy is stripped away, the actual sycamore tree removed from the top of the wall, and the roof replaced, we’ll have a real gem of a space to work from.

While we’re trying to find some order in the chaos of moving I thought I’d share this video of our last days in the old workshop, making our classic lavender raindrop soap and then emptying out all our equipment, ingredients and packaging ready for the big move. 🚛📦

We’re currently using my (very understanding) parents’ utility room to make our soap and keep the show on the road… but soon we’ll be starting work on renovating the farm buildings so we can fit out a permanent space where we can make our products and hopefully expand the range. 💜🪻

I wonder how long until we’re making this soap in our new workshop??? 🫧👷‍♀️

What Our Clients Think

In a bid to use less plastic I bought some lavender and lavender beer soaps - they smelled amazing when they arrived in eco-friendly packaging, but the lavender scent when you use them is not in any way overpowering. The lavender beer especially is so creamy and lovely! Thoroughly recommend buying, and any of the products would make great gifts as the packaging is beautiful.

Order lavender soaps, hand creams and sets! Super happy with my orders. The smell is amazing I could smell it before I opened the box. The two gifts are xmas pressies but the hand cream is great. I will be ordering more! Great service and loved the personal touch. ????

Thank you so much [for my lavender soap], my parcel arrived and I knew what was in it before I opened it. The fragrance is amazing. So beautifully packaged too, I want to keep everything not give as gifts. Good job I treated myself to a little something ???? Thank you for you...
