Light Oak
Hidden Bureau

I have been looking for ages to find a bureau in the right colour oak and size. Ideally I would have liked a roll top, but could never find a suitable one. Whilst looking on the internet I came across the Cotswold Company late last year. On ringing them I found this item to be discontinued , however a little later on a sent booklet it became available again. So immediately I placed an order a paid a deposit. There was a wait which I was fully prepared to do and now I am so glad I did. Everyone I spoke to prior to order, during the wait and with updates regularly with emails was top rate. The delivery was arranged around my requested date and I was kept informed by the delivery company by email too. As informed they called on the day to give me an approximate time, and two guys came lifted the heavy bureau into place and gave me time to look it over before signing the paper work. Ex Ellen's service from start to finish. The bureau is exactly as you see on the website, the colour as the sample of wood previously sent. I have bought suspension files for the bottom draw which now neatly stores my important documents. My stationary and odd bits have been housed in the shallow two draws and my laptop and iPad accommodated nicely in the top pull down. The four star rating is due to a slight difficulty aligning the top pull down correctly to shut it completely. Knowing I must allow for newness and stiffness I am hoping this will prove easier in time. It is just annoying. The price of this bureau is a considered purchase as it is a little expensive. However I am a great believer in one gets what one pays for. It is a solid well designed and put together eye pleasing piece of furniture to which I plan to have for many years to come, and one day hand down to the family.

Love this bureau. Looks great in the home but also practical - loads of storage space. Couldn't live without it!

An excellent piece of furniture. Well made. Excellent value for money.
