Beevive Bee Hotel Kit
A Bee Hotel Kit for assembly at home, any age can get involved! Makes a great gift to post to a bee lover due to being letterbox size.
Award winning & cleverly designed....hand-assembled, and packed in their Exeter studio, Faye and Jake are founders and innovators of Beevive Bee Hotel Kit. This kit is a brilliant way to create a safe nesting space for solitary bees, all while learning more about the incredible world of these gentle, hard-working pollinators.
Crafted in the UK from sustainably sourced Panguaneta poplar plywood, this flat-pack bee hotel is designed to fit through your letterbox and be easily assembled at home. It provides a welcoming shelter for female solitary bees to build nests and lay eggs — helping to restore habitats they’ve been losing in the wild.
Solitary bees are non-aggressive, child- and pet-friendly, and absolutely fascinating to observe. Unlike honey bees or bumblebees, they don’t live in colonies, making them an ideal introduction to garden pollinators for curious minds of all ages.
