Our Products
Natural soaps, solid shampoos, luxurious creams and balms, all Handmade in Yorkshire. We offer a range of plastic free, palm oil free, SLS free and paraben free, products and gifts.
Our passion is creating ethical skin and bodycare which is as great for the environment as it is for our customers.
Our ingredients are locally sourced wherever possible and everything we use can be found somewhere in nature. We give nature a helping hand in return by using plastic free, compostable or recyclable packaging. Our small batch manufacturing processes produce very little waste and our energy consumption is low too.
The gentle essential oil fragrances we use are created from steam distilled flowers, petals or fruit. We do not add water to our creams or balms so everything is beautifully long lasting.
All of our products are cruelty free and suitable for vegetarians. We also offer a growing range of vegan products.
Ethical skincare for all.

Our Story
Cosy Cottage Soap’s story begins with Clara producing handmade soaps in the kitchen laboratory of a 350-year-old cottage in Ganthorpe, Yorkshire. Yes, the Cosy Cottage is real!
Founder, Clara, became increasingly aware of the potentially harmful effects of detergents like SLS, preservatives like parabens and other additives found in many commercially produced skincare products whilst recovering from illness in 2015.
Using her knowledge as a qualified chemist and an Associate of the Royal College of Science, Clara began by producing natural soaps free from sulphates, free from paraben and free from palm oil, from home. It's these roots that continue to shape Cosy Cottage Soap ethos.
As the company has expanded, so has the team. Clara’s husband, Philip runs the production and operations, her son is the designer, her daughter works in the office and other friends and family regularly join her in the workshop.
In 2019, Cosy Cottage Soap moved their manufacturing to new premises in the beautiful market town of Malton, Yorkshire, where the first Cosy Cottage Store was also opened in October 2020.
