Old-fashioned quality driven furniture upholsterer and restorer…read more You might walk into Ken Reeves' workshop and be taken aback by the vast sprawling mounds of bits of chair, fabric sample books and other bits and bobs linked to an upholstery restoring business. It looks chaotic and Ken's approach is certainly laid back. But he and his team deliver a service that simply can NOT be beaten in terms of quality and value. He restores furniture, simple as that. But he often buys quality furniture that's seen better days and restores it to a condition that's probably better than it was when the piece was new. And he is very far from expensive. We've realised there's no point buying the hastily designed and poorly constructed sofas from places like World of Leather or Ikea when you can go and see Ken Reeves and he'll find the right sofa, strip it right down to the skeleton and then rebuild it to a very high quality using materials you choose yourself. We bought a very large sofa from him and we chose some heavy wearing fabric and Ken delivered it within 6 weeks, for £700 + VAT. That's crazy value. The idea of finding a solid wood constructed sofa for that sort of money is impossible as you'd normally only get some chipboard version from Ikea for that. Ken Reeves' sells furniture that should last a lifetime if looked after. Another of the sort of businesses you don't often find these days. Craftsmanship is at the fore, and you will be surprised by the prices. Ken himself is a charmer. Loves to chatter so make sure you have some time to spare if you visit. Mention the word Ikea and he's away with rolling eyes and quiet laughter. You won't find anything that could flatpack here - only superbly restored and heavily solid furniture.

More often than not, we leave with a new purchase, of which we're always delighted with. David Gavin Interiors has also supplied me with numberous roles of bespoke wall paper which is frequently complimented in my house (despite being 3 years old!). I would definitely recommend this interior shop, especially in the run up to Christmas for pressies, furniture or decorations. I also think Matt should organise a mulled wine and mince pie shopping night for his special customers... No pressure and don't forget Mum and I!! :)

This is a beautiful shop selling revamped antique and vintage furniture. I spotted a 1920s…read morereupholstered sofa in the window that was just £375. It had been sold of course and was presumably waiting for its owner to come and collect it. The store stocks antique furniture, most of which is downstairs in the basement in various states of repair. The idea is that you choose your furniture and then look through their extensive pattern books for fabric. The furniture repaired, reupholstered and ready for you to collect. They can also reupholster your own furniture and provide bespoke curtains to match. Or you can go for the whole shebang and opt for a full interior design service.

There were excellent from start to finish and we'd have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else. It was actually quite a long, drawn-out process. First the guy came round with some samples; then we had to decide which was best; then arrangements had to be made for the chairs' collection and after that they had to be delivered back to us. At virtually every stage the proprietor was efficient, friendly and helpful -- what more can you ask for? I don't know whether the price was good value or not because the insurance company paid -- but it seemed fairly reasonable to me. So all in all: an excellent local service.
