This feels like a BIG (but exciting) moment - so a deep breath from us…
The next chapter & some exciting news from Melt… 🌿
After 27 years, the candle business we've nurtured & loved is moving into the safe hands of its new owners, Amy & Ted.
We're delighted that it's going forward with friends of Melt &, just as importantly, friends of ours — & here's a lovely coincidence: they're the same age Trevor & I were when we started this adventure all those years ago! ❤️
Most importantly, our small team are protected - they are such a vital part of what comes next - & two NEW jobs have already been created! 😄
Meanwhile, here at Backridge Farm, our beautiful shop is staying under our ownership & care — & we'd love you to continue to keep us company, as you have over the years. 🤗
So, to help keep you up to date, if you're here for the candles, fragrance & online offers, you'll continue to find them on this page. But we're also giving our shop a Facebook home of her own, where we'll share all the things that make a visit to Melt so magical.
Beautiful things. Lovely discoveries. And Melt candles (of course! 😃)
The changing seasons. The nature outside our doors. The views. The welcome, the w**e & all those little things that make a visit to us feel different, relaxed & special.
And we’ll still be here, doing what we love most!
Our new page is Melt at Backridge Farm. 🌿

Melt at Backridge Farm
Thank you for being part of our story over the years. Whether you've bought our candles, visited the shop, worked in our small team, or simply enjoyed a glimpse of life at Melt, we're unbelievably grateful you've been here with us.
Without you — your visits, your conversations & all the many moments we've shared — Melt wouldn't be as lovely as she is, or as lovely as she'll continue to be.
You've made the last 27 years the happiest ride of our lives! 💚
Now, we'd love you to come with us into the next chapter… we have so much to tell you! 🥰.
With all love …
Cheryl & Trevor xx
