There is something about the smell of wood that makes people smile.

And in it comes ..The local, British and sustainable Sweet Chestnut from  National Trust land that we need to keep our customers happy.

Here in the sawmill there are always many pieces of wood lying around that we are unable to use for our main business but we really don't want to go to waste, so what to do with them?  We make them into beautiful pieces of unique and bespoke furniture.

There is always an idea brewing, and often ideas come from customers or staff.."that would make a nice coffee table"!  And so it is that our showroom increases with more amazing woody creations.

We are forever being asked for bar tops Island tops and big shelves...
