Heima (pronounced Hey-ma - Icelandic for ‘home’) holds a plethora of useful objects for home and outdoor life whilst remaining true to a low-waste lifestyle. Purveyors of a delightful array of eco-friendly and zero-plastic homewares, gifts and DIY essentials. It even houses a refill shop with household and personal care products; in a range of fragrances.

Owner Maff Punton - a third generation hardware shop owner - has crammed an amazing cache of over 4000 products into Heima’s two modest rooms whilst remaining well-presented and reasonably priced. Their online presence is ever growing; if you’d like to get an idea of the stock they keep visit heima.uk - though remember the shop on Gillygate is well worth a visit as there is so much more to see.

Our tagline should probably be "Full of things you didn't know you needed" - it's amazing how many people say this when they visit the shop - often word for word!
