Why is it called Cowshed?
Cowshed’s name actually bears a link to its beginnings. An old cowshed is where it began for the brand. Soho House’s Founder Nick Jones created the original Cowshed spa as a retreat within a retreat, extending the hospitality of the House into wellness and wellbeing for guests. An old cowshed in rural Somerset might seem an unlikely place for a luxury spa, but over 25 years ago it became an integral part of the now iconic Babington House, the first Soho House club to open outside of London.
Who started Cowshed?
Established in 1998 by Soho House & Co, Cowshed revolutionised spa and skincare with its quirky, British charm. Rooted in the belief that natural ingredients enhance well-being, Cowshed’s co-founders, Nick Jones and Richard Wood, created a brand known for its luxurious products and holistic approach. We built on and refined core visual elements of the original brand across all packaging, and helped reconnect Cowshed to its pioneering roots in Somerset with updated values and new brand line (‘Natural Therapies from the Heart & Soil of Somerset, England’) to articulate the brand promise and origin of the products and .Cowshed products are made in England, with a variety of organic ingredients, wildcrafted plant extracts and pure essential oil of the highest quality.
