Hello everyone, and Happy 2026.
Can you believe we’re already halfway through January? We hope the year has started well and you’re feeling inspired by what’s ahead.
At The Packhouse in Farnham, we’re already looking ahead to a new season in the world of design and home living. January is the perfect time to consider a fresh look ahead of spring, whether you’re refreshing your interiors or simply adding a few new pieces. This year, it’s all about cosy layers, seasonal textures and creating beautiful spaces to enjoy as the nights draw out. Whether you’re searching for the perfect armchair, a statement dining table, unique tablescaping ideas or ways to add warmth with soft furnishings, The Packhouse is your go-to destination for interiors inspiration.
There’s so much happening over the coming months, and we’re excited to share it with you. We’ll be catching up with owner Alison Hougham to learn more about the history of The Packhouse, the story behind the name, and how this much-loved design destination came to life. We’ll also sit down with Jayne, our incredible Head of Visual Merchandising, to discover how she creates the flow of our space, curating room after room filled with unique finds. From vintage treasures to contemporary pieces, Jayne’s vision brings every corner of The Packhouse to life.
We’ll also be spotlighting some of our talented traders, each with their own story to tell. Expect conversations around antiques, art, furniture and one-of-a-kind objects that make a home truly personal.
It’s set to be a busy and inspiring season at The Packhouse Farnham, so don’t miss out. Sign up to our newsletter for updates, behind-the-scenes stories and seasonal design tips and follow us on Instagram for all things bright and beautiful in the world of home and interiors.
We can’t wait to welcome you. x

Players start rolling the ball. And within seconds, you understand the goal: stay alive. That simplicity is exactly what makes Slope game so addictive.
Love the focus on fresh starts and inspiration for the new year. That feeling of resetting and finding small moments of enjoyment really resonates. It actually reminds me of Geometry Dash Lite in a fun way — a simple, upbeat game that’s easy to jump into when you need a quick mental refresh. Like redesigning a space, it’s all about rhythm, flow, and finding satisfaction in small improvements. Wishing everyone a creative and inspiring start to 2026.
