About The Packhouse
The Packhouse is a Grade II listed 400-year-old hop kiln on the edge of the Surrey Hills, now home to over 60 independent traders. It is a destination in its own right: part antique centre, part lifestyle store, part place to spend a morning. You will find it on Tongham Road in Runfold, just off the A31 Hog’s Back, with free parking and a restaurant on site.
It attracts the kind of customer who prefers something real over something mass-produced. Terrariums made by hand, from upcycled glass, with plants chosen to suit the vessel fit in well here.
What You Will Find
A selection of Blue Squid terrariums is available at The Packhouse. Zoe builds each one from upcycled glass using plants suited to the size and shape of the vessel. What is in stock changes as new pieces come in, so if you are looking for something specific, it is worth getting in touch before you make the trip.
Buying in person means you can see exactly what you are getting before you take it home. You can check the glass, the planting, and how the terrarium sits. There are no photographs to interpret, just the thing itself.
