About Gower Lavender

Gower Lavender is proudly a small, independent Gower business. Our range of handmade soaps, hand creams and lavender hearts is natural and eco-conscious without compromising on luxury. The company is run by local couple Rae Howells and Phil Poucher. We’re passionate about natural ingredients and making sure our business is sustainable for the planet. We love bees. We love using local ingredients. And we love lavender. What started as a few lavender plants in our garden has now expanded to a field overlooking the sea near Three Cliffs, a corner of a meadow in Murton and a consultancy partnership with the National Trust at their lavender fields on The Vile at Rhossili. We grow eight varieties of culinary lavender, from traditional purples like Munstead and Hidcote, to more delicate pink Rosea and white Edelweiss varieties. We also grow lavendula intermedia Grosso for its large, plentiful and late blooming spears. That means we have lavender growing from early May right through to October. We use our Lavender to make a selection of handmade products, and we also sell a range of eco bathroom accessories, gift sets and hampers.Read their story
