The Gift Cottage is located in the downtown area of Bethel, Conn. We offer an eclectic collection of fine gifts for practically every occasion. The Gift Cottage is a destination store where you'll want to enjoy what we call "a frivolous shopping experience" each and every time you visit.
Our mission is to be the premier retailer of fashionable and unique gifts in the Western Connecticut area. We will strive to bring gift ideas to our customers throughout the year on a timeliness unmatched by our competition.
The Gift Cottage is a family owned and run business staffed by not only family members but also with a number of faithful associates who have been with us from the beginning 20 years ago. Our founder and the store's bedrock leader, Joan, is committed to exceptional customer service and a shopping experience you'll not forget. We take great pride in Joan's buying expertise and ability to bring in product our customers want when trends are hot and big Mall stores are slow to react. The Gift Cottage is frequently the first store shoppers come to when they absolutely have to have that perfect gift for that special occasion.
There is ample parking behind our store where you'll seldom have to fight the mall crowds especially around the holidays.
