Our Story

Welcome to Cotswold Rustic…

‘Handmade furniture designed for the spaces you have and the lives you love to live’

We are a family run business based in the Cotswolds making rustic industrial style furniture. We started our journey in 2019, building furniture as a hobby in Abby’s parents garage and have since built a successful growing business, operating from our workshop based near Broadway Tower. We offer our standard products through the shop page but also offer a bespoke service. We are able to discuss designs, and bring your ideas to life from start to finish, and pride ourselves on giving you a personal and individualised experience.

A bit more about us…

Will has worked as a steel fabricator for over 14 years designing, fabricating and installing various structures including gates, railings and building frames. His passion however, has always been working with timber which he has done as a hobby on and off over the years – mostly under his Grandad’s very experienced wing! After a family friend asked Will if he could make them a set of dining table legs to go with their bespoke table top…our business idea came to life. We began by making bits for our own home as well as for family and friends before we gained enough interest to start making a real go of it… Cotswold Rustic was born. Abby became more involved in the business, bringing ideas to the table and helping customers design the perfect pieces for their homes. We spent day after day, night after night, season after season, working out of a conservatory,  garage and a small shed. We sacrificed so much as a family… but we believed that we could make it work. At the beginning of 2022 we took on our very own beautiful Cotswold stone workshop near Broadway. We have to pinch ourselves at times, we can’t believe our little idea has turned into a successful business! We would like to say THANK YOU to our lovely customers for supporting us, our friends and family for cheering us on, and to our children for inspiring us to always do our best.

We would love to hear from you if you would like to talk through your ideas and designs, or even if you would just like to know a bit more about us! We would welcome you to come and meet us at our workshop to get a real feel for the work we do, and to see our work in progress.

 

Whilst we have a passion for making beautiful solid wood furniture, our first and biggest passion, is and always will be, our two amazing children, both being the reason we do what we do, creating family friendly products that all ages can use & enjoy!
