“100% happy with the service we received and our kitchen is everything we dreamed of. Sam and Lucy were very easy to work with and the craftsmanship is superb. Sam’s attention to detail is amazing.
We are so happy we chose the Bespoke route instead of a standard fitted kitchen. Its’s beautiful and a pleasure to use. So solid and well built and will last a lifetime.
The perfect finishing touch to our home renovation. We would definitely recommend.”
Gill & Pete

The impracticalities of the kitchen we inherited when we moved into our property led us to the idea of a bespoke kitchen with details that we knew worked personally for us. One feature of their Duddon Valley kitchen attracted us to Hayton & Higgins followed by an inspiring conversation with Sam & Lucy and then a project.
Given our ideas they created a design that was tweaked to perfection. With H&H we could specify the dimension of each unit with Sam on hand to tell us where the technical limits were – there weren’t many given his “can do” attitude.
Lucy’s design input was subtle and helpful. Mere ‘suggestions’ about colour, appliances, fittings and tile options helped navigate the numerous choices now available. She was also able to direct us to trusted granite & tiles suppliers.
Finally, as well as his own outstanding craftsmanship making and fitting the kitchen, Sam was happy to project manage with access to a full range of highly skilled trades who were a pleasure to have in the house.
Thank you Sam & Lucy….the best room in the house!

“Designers and makers of the most beautiful kitchen! Lovely to work with, great ideas and also really listened and took on board everything we wanted. The final kitchen is stunning and a joy to be in.”
Paul and Beth

“When we were looking for a new kitchen we needed to find someone who could do justice to our Cumbrian Farmhouse. We have no straight walls, no right angles and a wooden post in the middle of the kitchen. We were lucky to find Hayton and Higgins locally. Sam and Lucy rose to the challenge and we now have a kitchen that fits the space perfectly, is robust, is practical and above all is beautifully finished and such a joy to use. Our visitors all say “wow” as they walk in. We cannot now imagine the kitchen any other way and there is nothing we would do differently. Thank you Sam and Lucy.”
Roger and Sally

“The Kitchen is stunning. We’d like to thank you both for helping us to achieve this beautiful, bright, functional kitchen. It is a credit to you and we are very proud of it. ”
M & C

“We are really pleased with our kitchen and the whole process was extremely positive with Hayton & Higgins. They are real crafts-people and very pleasant to deal with. They listened to what we needed, contributed great ideas, and have created a beautiful and functional kitchen with impeccable attention to detail. We’re confident that it will last for many years and prove to be a much better investment than a cheaper kitchen.”
A & K

“We found the no pressure approach from both Lucy & Sam in helping us design and specify our kitchen a pleasing experience.
The process of working through the various designs and exploring the many options available to us was made easier by their willingness to help us create the look and style we wanted.
The final result far exceeded our expectations. Sam’s attention to detail and his craftsmanship are first class.
Our hand finished mixed wood designed kitchen speaks for itself and has been manufactured to the highest standards. A fact many a visitor has commented on.
In addition to the kitchen Sam also crafted a bespoke painted stand alone dresser and display cabinet which compliments the natural look of the kitchen perfectly.
An excellent job well done that will last a life time.
We have no hesitation in recommending Hayton & Higgins to anyone looking for a personalised bespoke kitchen made to the highest standards.”
Sarah & Sean

“We couldn’t be happier with the quality and style of our new kitchen. The design work was entirely collaborative, with our own ideas and preferences building on Lucy and Sam’s suggestions and mock-ups, and we are delighted that between us we got it exactly as we wanted The kitchen used to feel bland and cold – now it overflows with warmth and character. Sam is a perfectionist, so the detailing is superb and everything works just as it should. Top marks!”
Aine & Hugh

“We wanted a beautiful but robust and functional kitchen, and we liked the look of this one, which we felt fitted in with our house.
The twist in the tale was that it also needed to be practical enough to cope with heavy use, muddy paws and a busy household everyday- but still look great and allow us a gorgeous background for more civilised dinner parties. We loved the style of the Prestbury Kitchen and worked closely with Lucy and Sam to make it ‘ours’. They designed us so many gorgeous items, including a working mantle with wooden pull-out cabinets and our favourite thing – a bespoke ‘dog drawer’ where we store all the usual canine paraphernalia!
We have ended up with the best family room ever and spend lots of noisy and fun times in here: it also cleans up beautifully and transforms to a soothing place when all is quiet and calm.”
Alison & Gareth

“We were looking for a bespoke kitchen, specially made just for us and somewhere we could explore our ideas, rather than some sales person just putting things into a computer programme and spitting out standard designs which then ended up in a factory elsewhere to be produced.
We were impressed when we could see for ourselves the skill and craftsmanship that went into each kitchen. This meant we could bring in our own design ideas, which were brought to life by Sam & Lucy, who firstly – and helpfully, advised us on whether our ideas would work!
They then guided us through design and the colour choices that would be liveable with for a lifetime.
We worked closely together and even got to observe some of Sam’s amazing joinery
skills, which was a delight to see in action.
We know that no-one else has a kitchen like ours and we absolutely love it!”
