Valley Boutique & Home
Valley Boutique & Home was established in 2014 by mother-daughter duo Shelly and Hannah Van de Kuilen in the heart of Bowness, where they have earned a reputation for an ever-evolving stock of home goods, locally made sweets, hand-crafted flower arrangements and specialty mineral paint. In 2023, Valley moved to its current location inside a two-storey building filled with natural light.
Valley also holds an annual ladies’ night in November. The two-night event includes snacks and drinks, plus early access to shop seasonal and holiday items.
