Little Valley Bakery is an aware winning Modern Welsh Bakery. We bake quality breads and treats from our two production sites in Brynmill and Gower and retail across our 3 shops including our latest addition, Mumbles.

Our story starts at home, in 2013 we started Little Valley Bakery. Operating from a £250 Princes Trust grant and a desire to bake breads using organic flour we slowly started our self taught journey in to the bakery we are today.

We opened our first fully fledged store in 2016 right in the heart of Gower in Parkmill. The bakery is where we took our first proper steps and took out a loan to invest in better equipment.

We opened our second location situated at 197 St Helen's Avenue in 2021. This space was a massive project for us and it allowed us to expand our sweet baking capacity and really get into croissant dough. We have been providing the people of Uplands and Brynmill area with our delicious, fresh baked goods since.

Most recently in October 2025 an exciting opportunity we had been keeping our eyes on came to us and we opened our third location in Mumbles. Situated in Castleton Walk Arcade on Newton Road. You can find us opposite 26 Mumbles Coffee and a short stroll from our good friends at Olives and Oils.

The bakery is owned and run by Tamara Williams and Alec Merriman.

Back in 2012/2013 the artisan bakery scene in the UK wasn't really that popular. We wanted to bring good quality loaves and treats that tasted great and weren’t full of chemicals to the area.

So in April 2014 we decided to embark on our food business journey. From very small and humble beginnings in our house and small grants we’re now operating from our 2  bakeries and 3 stores across Swansea, proud to be a part of each community. 

We’re lovers of good food, proper food, real food. We’re members of the Real Bread Campaign and are committed to keeping our bread simple.

You can get our bread from various coffee shops and eateries across Swansea, at various markets across Swansea and South Wales and of course at our shops in Parkmill, Gower, Castleton Walk Arcade, Mumbles and St Helen's Avenue, Brynmill.

We’re proud of our bread; it is made using organic flour, traditional techniques and we use slow processes that develop great flavour. We’re signed up members of the Real Bread Campaign and you can be sure that our bread is just that, real bread.

At our shop you can expect you can expect sourdough, seeded rye and our delicious speciality flavoured loaves as well as delightful cinnamon buns and the perfect morning treat in croissants.

We are aiming for big things. We want to show that good quality food businesses can thrive in the modern day.
