I was assured in the store my delivery would be on June 24Th 2026 and my invoice confirmed it. I was unaware that the delivery date had changed. The lack of communication has been extremely disappointing. With no help from customer service, not a good experience

Good morning Annemarie,

I’m really sorry to hear about your experience and the disappointment caused by the delivery date and lack of communication.

Looking through the notes on your account, the delivery date was automatically set for 30th June, and we are unable to see any correspondence confirming that the date should have been the 24th June as mentioned. That said, I completely understand how frustrating this must have been, given what you were originally advised in the store.

I will investigate this further to understand what has happened here and ensure it is fully looked into. I shall also be in touch with you directly to discuss this in more detail.

Best wishes,

Jessica Sculfor

I visited the Harpenden Store recently and felt that the staff were not interested. I have lived in Harpenden nearly all my life. I noticed when a couple walked in they were greeted but I felt I was ignored. Some of these customers are pretentious newcomers to Harpenden. I was going to order some items not a large order but a quite a few items. I will not be doing this now and I will not be going back. Sharpen up your act Cotswold Company. Not impressed at all

Good morning Jules,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

I am very sorry to learn about your recent experience in our Harpenden showroom. This is certainly not the standard of service we strive to provide, and I completely understand how disappointing it must have felt to not receive the same welcome as other customers during your visit.

We want every customer to feel acknowledged, valued, and supported from the moment they enter one of our showrooms, so I am concerned to hear that this was not your experience on this occasion.

I would like to investigate this matter further and discuss your feedback directly with the Showroom Manager to ensure any necessary improvements can be addressed.

To help me look into this fully, I have requested your contact details separately. Once I have received them, I will be in touch to discuss your experience in more detail.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. Feedback such as yours is invaluable in helping us improve the service we provide to our customers.

Best wishes,

Friendly, helpful staff.

As soon as you walk through the door you are greeted by member of staff. Without any pressure staff will help you look for items we were searching for. They offered advice and even told us about a sale that was taking place in store. The store itself is beautiful played out, with furniture and furnishings with every item put together really well. They definitely should offer an interior design service, if they don't already!
