Just steps away from Sworders Head Office and Auction Rooms, nestled within the same picturesque grounds, lies Folies Gift Shop and Café - a charming destination that perfectly complements a day of art appreciation and antique discovery.
The café at Folies provides a welcoming spot to relax and enjoy freshly brewed coffee while discussing art and antiques and contemplating prospective sales and purchases. Visitors can enjoy a range of savoury treats, indulge in delicious cakes and pastries, and take a moment to discuss their Sworders finds.

This delightful venue offers a carefully curated selection of plants, gifts, homewares, and art-related merchandise, making it an ideal stop for those looking to find a special souvenir or a thoughtful gift. Whether you're drawn to unique ceramics, bespoke jewellery, or beautifully crafted home decor, Folies has something to captivate every visitor.
