Posted on 28th November 2025

From hotel-style soft furnishings, quirky dinnerware, to luxury aromatherapy, surprise the homebody in your life with the perfect gift for them and their home…

I am a self-confessed homebody; I love chill days and cosy nights in with a passion. And there are lots of different, little ways I like to elevate my experience – think plush robes, decadent candles, bistro-inspired ceramics, and handy kitchen tech.

So, if you, too, have someone in your life who loves retreating to their homely cocoon, I’ve rounded up over 30 gift ideas, sure to make their heart go warm and fuzzy this Christmas…

Homebody heaven

Does the homebody in your life indulge in matcha as their mid-day pick-me-up? Perhaps they love waking up with the sunrise, or lighting a candle as soon as they arrive home from work. When you’re compiling your Christmas shopping list, think about your loved one’s quirks and habits, and find ways to upgrade their routines.
