About Stonehouse Teas

Stonehouse Teas offers over 120 different types of loose leaf teas, locally roasted organic Aroma coffee and other local products such as pottery and honey. They carry everything you need to make the perfect cup of tea including teapots, strainers, tea cups and travel mugs.

The idea and concept for Stonehouse Teas was set in motion when the original owner, Tanya came back from visiting family in England. Having a love for all things tea and after visiting countless Teashops and Tearooms, a desire for a loose leaf teashop in Campbell River was born. The business is named after Tanya's family name, Stonehouse.

In 2016 she was ready to sell the business and semi-retire and the timing was perfect for Christine to purchase Stonehouse Teas. Since then, Christine has expanded the seating both inside and out to offer more room to sit and visit.
