Introducing our

Toiletries & Home Collection

Did you know?

No mass production for us! All our toiletries are made by a small, selected companies in the UK. We work closely to develop genuinely unique products that make the most of the attributes we think are so special in our various oils. The balms, lotions and soaps are produced in small batches using natural, organic ingredients whenever possible.

Here are a few great talking points that, over the years, have helped customers connect to Castle Farm products and develop brand loyalty...

 Symbols on the packaging communicate product and brand ethics and the Castle Farm provenance.

We have created a series of easily identifiable virtue icons that are listed on each product so that customers can be sure of the quality and attributes at a glance.

Natural scents - No artificial fragrances.

Because we grow and distill our own essential oils on site and have such fabulous feedback from top perfumers, we are always going to champion the use of natural fragrance in products. When lavender smells so good, who needs artificial fragrances!

Candles and soaps with a high oil content.

When formulating new products, we like to be generous with the percentage of oil in our soaps and candles. We know our customers will agree the high oil content makes for a truly luxurious sensory experience.

A massage oil that aromatherapists can happily use all day!

For many years we organised massages for customers in our lavender fields. The aromatherapists always reported back that the balance of lavender and neroli in our massage oil really set it apart from others and they could happily work with it all day.

 

A room spray made with pure oils.

It's rare to find an all-natural room spray and this one has the scent of a summer meadow. Lavandin is combined with rosemary and thyme to be reminiscent of a hot mediterranean day.

Linen water direct from our distillation.

This is pure lavender water, a direct product of the distillation process, It has a powerful scent but is distinct in fragrance because it carries the water-soluble elements of the oil. We recommend diluting with up to 10 parts of filtered water when ironing or spraying linens. It works incredibly well to provide a natural and subtle fragrance to your laundry.

Tried and tested hand sanitiser.

A must-have product to carry when out-and-about. It's an effective sanitiser as well as leaving a softness to the skin - and it smells good!

Moth oil - a powerful insect repellent!

Traditionally, bags of lavandin have been hung in wardrobes to repel moths. Lavandin and rosemary are both high in camphor so are a natural choice as an insect repellant. Here the oils are combined as a powerful fragrance that can be sprinkled in drawers or cupboards, on carpets or with stored woollens.

 

Expert Tips

Sandy Martin

Mail Order and Trade manager

Take time to explain to customers the difference between Lavender and Lavandin. They're always fascinated!

Once they realise the difference between the invigorating properties of Lavandin and the relaxing character of Lavender, they understand how to use the products and benefit from their properties.

Lorna Roberts

Head of Communications and Social

Customers are constantly getting in touch with glowing reviews. From the gentleness of our natural embossed soaps to their love for the smell of our hand and body lotion. I find it always helps to promote with images of our lavender fields connecting customers to the provenance of the products.

Cleansing Soap uses the antiseptic properties of ‘Folgate’ Lavender oil in a traditionally-made long-lasting, white bar.

Lavender & Bergamot

A beautifully scented Hand and Body Lotion & Wash presented in 250ml recycleable bottles with pump tops. Bergamot oil, extracted from the rind of citrus fruits, perfectly balances the sweetness of the ‘Maillette’ Lavender. Created for everyday luxury, these are perfect paired as an affordable gift.

Massage Oil

Lavender Massage Oil is a gloriously distinctive combination of ‘Maillette’ Lavender and Neroli oils. Neroli is produced from the blossom of the bitter orange tree. The lavender oil is deeply relaxing but the freshness of the Neroli gives it a bit of a ‘lift’.
