Willow growers and suppliers, producing handcrafted basketware alongside visitor centre.

  • Based on stunning Somerset levels
  • Walks onto the moors
  • Mix of environment and landscape combined with traditional craft and industry

On the Somerset levels, an informative Visitor Centre accompanies the traditional willow growing, handcrafted basket and charcoal producing industry.

We are a family run business established in 1819 – based on the unique Somerset levels, growing and supplying willow and producing high quality handcrafted willow products ie. baskets, furniture, garden accessories, artists’ charcoal etc.

Our visitor centre has exhibitions, displays, a museum with unusual artefacts and walks onto the levels to experience the landscape and environment.
