There’s something magical about a photo shoot that blends luxury products with a location steeped in history and natural beauty. For Cowshed’s latest campaign, the perfect setting was found at The Vale, a stunning Georgian manor in the heart of Oxfordshire. The shoot was an ode to self-care and nature, combining Cowshed’s indulgent bath and body products with the timeless elegance of this heritage home. Here’s how this harmonious collaboration came together.
Cowshed’s Bath and Body Care collection celebrates self-care by combining expertly blended natural ingredients with luxurious formulations. The campaign focused on two standout ranges: the indulgent ‘Indulge’ collection, with its romantic floral notes of Madagascan Ylang Ylang, Moroccan Rose, and Indian Palmarosa, and the invigorating ‘Active’ collection, designed to energise mornings with pure Lemongrass, Ginger, and Rosemary essential oils.
Each product in the ‘Indulge’ range, from the Blissful Bath and Shower Gel to the deeply hydrating Body Oil, is crafted to pamper the senses while nourishing the skin. Meanwhile, the ‘Active’ Bath and Shower Gel offers a refreshing start to the day, providing a natural alternative to caffeine for a revitalising boost.
Through this photoshoot, Cowshed showcased its products’ efficacy and communicated the brand’s ethos: connecting people with nature, luxury, and the joy of everyday rituals.
The Vale, an early Georgian manor in the heart of an idyllic Oxfordshire village, provided the perfect backdrop for the campaign. Surrounded by 1.5 acres of gardens, orchards, and a quintessentially English church and village green, the property exuded an air of timeless charm that resonated beautifully with Cowshed’s natural and luxurious products.
The home’s interiors were equally stunning. With its open fire, the panelled sitting room created a cosy and intimate setting for the ‘Indulge’ collection. At the same time, the large DeVOL kitchen offered a rustic yet sophisticated atmosphere for more lifestyle-oriented shots. The freestanding bath in the panelled master bathroom was the star of the shoot, highlighting Cowshed’s bath products’ calming and restorative qualities. Natural light flooding through Georgian windows added an ethereal quality to the images, enhancing the sense of warmth and relaxation.
Blooming gardens and the soft golden light of Oxfordshire sunsets created the perfect setting for capturing the essence of the ‘Indulge’ range, where flowers and natural beauty mirrored the botanical ingredients of Cowshed’s products.
The synergy between Cowshed’s products and the location made this campaign truly special. The rich history and understated luxury of The Vale complemented the timeless appeal of Cowshed’s range. The Georgian manor’s details—beamed ceilings, oak fireplaces, and elegant panelling, provided texture and authenticity, while the gardens echoed the brand’s connection to nature and botanical origins.
Images of the ‘Indulge’ collection, framed by soft light and fresh flowers on a Georgian windowsill, spoke of relaxation and indulgence. In contrast, the ‘Active’ range, captured in the fresh, airy spaces of the bathroom, conveyed energy and vitality. The versatility of the Oxfordshire location house allowed Cowshed’s team to bring their vision to life, blending lifestyle, luxury, and nature in every frame.
Cowshed’s product shoot at The Vale was more than just a campaign—it was an experience. The blend of luxurious bath and body products with the historic elegance of this Georgian manor perfectly encapsulated Cowshed’s philosophy: natural beauty elevated by thoughtful design.
Through the careful curation of location and product, this shoot captured the essence of indulgence and self-care. Whether nestled in a cosy panelled room or bathed in natural light streaming through Georgian windows, every image told a story of the connection between people, nature, and the simple joys of everyday rituals.
For Cowshed and Shootfactory, this collaboration demonstrated how the perfect location can elevate the visuals and a brand’s essence. For anyone seeking inspiration in luxury, nature, and heritage, this shoot is an enduring reminder of the beauty to be found in life’s little moments.
