Making Christmas easier with a Collins Bespoke Kitchen

Collins-Bespoke-Christmas-Kitchen

When you choose a handmade bespoke kitchen, you choose it because you know that it’s going to be designed especially for you, your lifestyle and your space. Of course, handmade kitchens are highly desired for many others reasons too: sustainability, locality, the fact they are built to last, and it goes without saying that they are really, really beautiful. But, having something designed just for you and your needs really does top the list. So, we don’t blame you if a 2021 installation is on the top of YOUR Christmas list this year.

Christmas can be a really daunting and stressful time; there is so much pressure to get it right on the big day, even if you take the edge off with too many Advocaat Snowballs. We all want to devour the most perfect roasties, right? No-one wants to be stuck in the kitchen on their own, do they? And, where on earth is the disappearing gravy jug that only visits the table once a year?

We really do believe that a Collins Bespoke kitchen can make Christmas easier and far more enjoyable. Why? Let’s take a look…

Space

Our designers know how to get the very best from your space. On those busy high-pressure days, you are going to need a kitchen that works for you, with easy access to everything that you need. Our designers are able to provide practical and effective storage solutions, so you know exactly where everything is, as well as designing the room effectively to accommodate easy movement around the space. You also want your kitchen to be a sociable spot…

A Kitchen Island

If you have room, our bespoke kitchen islands are a great piece of social furniture. An island creates a hub for family to gather, friends to socialise and a place for informal snacks and Bucks Fizz to be guzzled. An island allows the cook of the house to socialise with friends and family when preparing Christmas dinner. Remember - don’t neglect the chef! There are no set designs either, so your island will be exactly to your requirements. Seating for 2, 4, 6 or more! A kitchen island is also the perfect place to conceal appliances so effortlessly - from microwaves to…

Drinks Coolers

Yes please!

Lots of our customers include a drinks/wine cooler within their design. We’re Caple dealers and our designers have great knowledge on which one will work best for you. Caple’s wine cabinets ensure your wine is kept at the optimum temperature and humidity, with UV-proof glass, the right level of air circulation and low-vibration technology (so the wine isn’t disturbed until you’re ready to pour it). They are super handy, especially when your fridge is probably already full to the brim with festive foods. They provide an easy-access extra spot to keep drinks cool on special days and all year round!

Worktops

When you choose a Collins Bespoke handmade kitchen, it means that you get to pick your dream worktop too. We have great relationships with local stonemasons who are able to offer really beautiful worktops to complement your cabinetry. And, not only are many of the options luxurious and stylish, but they are durable and low maintenance to suit your lifestyle and space. We all know that if spillages were to happen then Christmas is probably the time. Things can be a bit manic.

Both Quartz and Granite worktops are hard-wearing, strong and heat resistant. Plus, both are great when it comes to stains - a little water and a soft cloth and voila - gone. Less panic for you and something really stunning to prep dinner on!

Bespoke Drinks Cabinets and Bars

Having your very own drinks cabinet or bar area at home, that’s stocked with all of your favourite tipples, is certainly a way to ‘be merry’ in style; and, is the absolute epitome of wow-factor when it comes to bespoke cabinetry! Plus, they are a great place to gather around when you can finally welcome guests again.

Of course, every cabinet designed and made here is bespoke – properly bespoke, as in, made with you in mind, naturally. Whether you opt for internal lighting, glass shelves or bi-folding doors – we design and make the cabinets to complement your style, while providing a beautiful design feature and most of all - ready to entertain - even if it’s just entertaining your current household.

Quooker Tap

From super speedy tea-making to boiling veggies - I cannot stress this one enough. You are going to want one! Boiling hot water taps are both water and energy efficient, time and space saving, and completely safe. Plus, with the Quooker Flex, with its extendable hose, rinsing your sink or cleaning that chopping board, just became easier. Quooker taps are available in a variety of different designs, styles and finishes. I personally love the black tap we have on display as part of our Distinguished Collection at Surrenden Manor. Our customers love (and swear by) them!

Double Integrated Ovens, Warming Trays and Dishwashers

Fed up of food shuffling and playing oven Tetris every Christmas? If space allows, our customers often ask us to incorporate double integrated ovens into their design plan, which really comes in handy over the festive season. As Siemens dealers, we are able to offer competitive prices on appliances that we think will work best for you and your lifestyle. Our designers work with kitchens of all shapes and sizes, and being bespoke, are able to create plans that integrate appliances so seamlessly.

Warming Trays are a must-have for dinner plates, especially when you are juggling this, that, and everything before and during dishing up. Perfect for keeping everything hot, hot hot!

And, dishwashers. Need I say more?

Larder

Meticulously handcrafted and designed to suit your lifestyle, a Collins Bespoke larder is going to be your bestfriend over the festive season. Offering the perfect storage solution with deep drawers and beautifully arranged racks for spices and condiments, it’s no wonder that the larder is now a timeless and practical kitchen statement-piece. Want to hide stuff away? No problem.

To bring a contemporary twist to a very classic kitchen design, a Collins Bespoke larder can be integrated and flow seamlessly with your kitchen cabinetry .Or, if you have a more traditional kitchen in mind - a freestanding larder is probably on the top of your Christmas list!

Integrated Bins

Integrated kitchen bins provide a discreet alternative to the standard kitchen bin, which will enable you to avoid unsightly clutter, and perfectly house your separated paper, glass and plastic for recycling. Compartmented bins are ideal for busy households who are trying to help the environment as much as they possibly can. Christmas is no exception, in fact, you’re likely to need it more.
