The Cotswold Company opens first retail park showroom
The Cotswold Company has opened its first showroom in a retail park at Portfield Retail Park in Chichester.
The premium furniture and homeware brand said the opening will give it the opportunity to test a larger format to its usual showrooms while still retaining the characterful feel.
The Cotswold Company stores are designed to replicate various spaces within the home with fully styled room settings, dropped ceilings and faux window installations.
The expanded space will showcase a wider product range, including best-selling collections such as Chester, Inglesham, Elkstone Oak and Camille, plus the brand’s largest upholstery offer with a dedicated hub featuring full-length fabrics, a consultation area and take-home swatches. It will also offer a ready-made curtain range.
