The Castle was in a state and our group were told that scarves were necessary during the renovations. We all quietly grumbled, that is until the valet produced an old tea chest spilling over with scarves of the most astonshing quality.

The Ultrafine Merino Scarf - celebrates the finest fibres the world has to offer to create a timeless and exquisite accessory. 100% Ultrafine Merino is a finer micron (diameter) of yarn which provides a feel similar to cashmere. These scarves are now available in a rainbow of options that showcase the depth of colour that only wool can deliver.
The Ultrafine Merino Wool is certified by the Responsible Wool Standard, which recognizes the best practices of farmers; ensuring that wool comes from farms with a progressive approach to managing their land, and from sheep that have been treated responsibly. The source of the Ultrafine Merino used in this scarf, Avington Farm, is creating a new benchmark in the Australian wool growing industry for the ethical farming of luxury merino.
The Scottish mill where they are woven has been a family business since 1797, coinciding with the arrival of the first Merino sheep to Australia. The quality is unmatched and sought out by discerning customers from HRH The Prince of Wales to the Houses of Burberry and Hermès.
