The Mount Shop

Guide books written by Lord St Levan and boat tickets can be purchased in both shops.

Located next to the Harbour Loft, the Mount Shop is a wonderful place to explore. From Cornish, artisan chocolates and gins, through to handmade jewellery and children's toys. It is also home to the toy shop, where curious young minds can enjoy myths and legends being brought to life. During the spring, summer and autumn, the garden shop will be in full bloom in the courtyard outside the Mount Shop, inspiring visitors to take home a living memento from the island. The Mount Shop also works closely with local designers to design and produce bespoke products that can only be purchased on the island, from tea towels and tote bags, to candles and coasters.

Visitors may want to explore the Island Shop, located next to the Steward's House Art Gallery. Both shops offer a different selection of items to discover during your island visit.

Opening hours: winter hours vary.

Designer collaborations

The team works closely with a number of local designers to create bespoke products for the island shops. Matt Johnson, Poppy Treffry, Jennifer Armitage, Mabel Woodhouse and Bloom Remedies and Arvor Press, are among some of the designers who have created bespoke products for the shops.
