Outlet

Welcome to Horred's heart, the Ekelundhouse. Here you will find a large selection of textile collections from us. We also have a large outlet with outgoing designs, 2nd sorting, design samples and weaving yarns. In the shop we also have a play corner for the minor and a museum. Curious about our production? Downstairs you will find the weaving mill, where you have the opportunity to get really close and ask questions to the staff.

Café / Restaurant

The Ekelundhouse is more than just shopping! In our café you can treat yourself to a gofika or a small lunch. Here you will find cookies and cakes from Lilla Träslövs Finbageri in Varberg. Our lunches are self-composed and the favorite is undoubtedly our Moose lasagne that has been on the menu for several years! During the summer season we also offer ice cream from SIA Glass.
