We’ve just arrived home from a wonderfully busy day at Pearhaus Coffee’s first ever Christmas Market, and we’re still a little bit amazed by it all.
When we pulled up and started unloading the car, we honestly didn’t expect it to be quite so lively… but within no time the place was buzzing. The coffee was flowing, the air felt properly festive, and there was that lovely kind of hustle where you can hear happy chatter everywhere you turn. It was so busy, and in the best possible way.
A Peek at Our Stall at Perhaus Coffee
To give you a little glimpse
Once the doors opened, the day absolutely flew by. We loved chatting with so many of you, hearing which scents you’re drawn to, and watching people pick up jars and take that first proper sniff (you can always tell when someone’s found “the one”!).
A big thank you to Edd and Charlie. We came away feeling really grateful, not just because it was a successful day, but because it was such a warm, supportive atmosphere. For a first Christmas market, Pearhaus Coffee absolutely smashed it, and we’re so glad we got to be part of it.
And with that… it was also our last market of 2025
Looking back over the last couple of months, the markets have been a whirlwind. Each one has taught us something new, from what scents you’re drawn to and which displays catch your eye, to the little practical things that only experience can teach (packing, setting up, keeping everything flowing when it gets busy!). We’ve come away from every event feeling grateful, a little more confident, and full of ideas for how to make the next one even better.
Time for Christmas holidays (and a little cottage rest)
Now we’re heading into our own little Christmas holidays, ready for a pause, a tidy-up, and some slow mornings after what’s been a wonderfully busy season.
To everyone who has supported us in 2025, whether you’ve ordered from the website, visited us at a market, recommended us to a friend, or popped into one of our lovely stockists to have a smell, thank you! It genuinely means the world to us.
We can’t wait for 2026, especially as we start dreaming up and making new fragrances for spring, ready to bring a little fresh cottage cheer into the new season.
With warmth,
Gareth & Danny
