A Robbins Nest is now Cork & Cottage. Our story

Our story

A Robbins Nest is now Cork & Cottage.

Shary Duff took over A Robbins Nest and made the shop on South Main her own. New name, new look, and a sharper edit.

Fewer pieces, better made, from makers we can name. Tableware, lighting, linens and gifts, dressed for every season.

And there is a bottle shop inside. Wine for the table, chosen to go with everything else in the room.

Meet the owner

Four shops downtown. One larger-than-life owner.

Shary made Queen of Hearts a destination for fine chocolate. Then she kept going: The Naked Goat, Mystic Mama, and now Cork & Cottage. Each one is dressed to the nines, every season.

“People want to shop somewhere special. People want to be treated well.”

Every season starts with Shary.

Four shops, a short walk apart.

Plan a day around all four.
