Christmas is coming and it goes without saying that most of us are frantically wrapping presents, baking, socialising and preparing our houses for Christmas. But did you know that almost half of us are also busy upgrading our bathrooms ready for Christmas. We want to add that festive luxury to the bathroom for our guests. The UK spends on average £15 (totalling £396 million) on small luxuries such as premium toilet tissue, nice hand wash and scented candles. Yes these little touches show that we Brits show uncompromising care to our guests at Christmas.

- Scented candle
- Premium toilet tissue
- Room spray or diffuser
- Luxury hand wash
- Hand Cream
- Hand towel
- Luxury tissues
- Moist toilet tissue
