Sat 12th December The Grove Open House
Description
As a rare treat, The Grove is open to the public for one day this Christmas. We have recently redecorated the interior of the house and a whole host of new cloth, collections and curios have moved in. Since the first open house, two years ago, we have opened our HOUSE shop of ready-made home textiles. The Grove served as the original inspiration for all our HOUSE pieces so you’ll find interior ideas stuffed comfortably into every cosy corner of the house this Christmas. Come and have a nose and get some interior inspiration for your own winter nest!
The house will be fully decorated for Christmas and both shops will be open. Freely explore the whole house, collect fabric swatches and enjoy some festive treats with us in the kitchen. Our team will be on hand in both the house and the shop to answer questions and chat. To give us an idea of numbers, please book an informal timeslot here ahead of your visit.
See you there, we’ll have the kettle on!
Location – 4 The Grove, Rye, TN31 7ND.
Date – Saturday 12th December.
Time – Select from three timeslots, 10am-12.30pm, 12.30-3pm or 3-5pm. Drop by anytime during your allocated the time slot.
This is a free event, but you do need to go through the checkout process in order to ‘book’ your space, as spaces are very limited. If for any reason you cannot make it on the day we would appreciate you emailing us so we can give your spot to someone else.
About The Grove
In 2021 Merchant & Mills purchased a house, nestled in the heart of Rye, just around the corner from our shop and a stone’s throw from the train station. We built all the schemes around the Merchant & Mills fabric collections to better cocoon our sewing school students in a world of textiles. The renovation gave life to a series of sewing patterns and fabrics and in time, these formed the core of our collection at HOUSE: beautiful, ready-made home textiles, designed in house by Merchant & Mills and handmade by the skilled artisans with whom we have built strong relationships over the years.
