Treacle Lane

Standing proudly at the heart of the Raumati Village shopping precinct, Treacle Lane is the kind of shop that refuses to be boxed into a category. From rare and beautifully fashioned vintage finds to premium homewares and gifts, there’s something new and interesting to be discovered in every corner.

The shop’s personality comes from this eclectic mix. The beautifully aged wooden floors set the scene, on which a collection of packed shelves and racks seem to happily coexist while competing for attention. New and vintage pieces sit alongside one another, creating a whimsical collection that feels assembled by someone with a very good eye - and a healthy disregard for the predictable. 

Homewares make up much of the offering, but this isn’t a place for matching sets and showroom perfection. Expect objects with colour, texture, nostalgia, and a little bit of oddness about them. There are plenty of gift ideas too, from small treats and all manner of decorative pieces. The range is deliberately ever-changing, so even if you’ve had a good rummage before, there’s reason to have another look.

That sense of discovery is what makes Treacle Lane particularly enjoyable. It’s less about arriving with a shopping list and more about following your eye around the room, turning something over, and finding a present that seems uncannily right for someone you know. In a village full of independent shops, it has carved out its own wonderfully idiosyncratic corner - a place for the curious, the easily distracted, and anyone who likes their homewares with a story attached.
