On a clear spring evening, we were delighted to hold the official opening of our Showroom in Ledbury, with the ribbon cut by Mayor Phillip Howells. After initially opening in January 2023, once settled in, February saw invited guests from both the town and local area to celebrate the official launch of our new Showroom, where they could explore our flatweave, tufted and lifestyle collections in the newly designed space.

We couldn’t think of a better place to be than in the town we know and love so well. Our knowledgeable Sales Team will be on hand to welcome you, offering a wealth of experience and advice – Jane Armstrong, Managing Director, Roger Oates Design.

With a number of local businesses and makers able to join us, it was a fascinating and joyful event spent celebrating our move back to the town where our story began. Our guests involved an array of Ledbury businesses including Tinsmiths, Hay Wines, Ceci Paolo and Hus & Hem, along with nearby Interior Designers and Makers including Jott Studios – and of course our founders, Roger and Fay.

Ideally located just off the High Street up Tinsmiths Alley, we welcomed our guests through a beautifully made floral arch created by the talented Layla Robinson, who designs all of her pieces from her home on the Herefordshire/Welsh border.

It certainly was an evening to remember, and one that marked the warm welcome in becoming a part of this bustling Herefordshire Market Town once more. – Andy Guard, Creative Director, Roger Oates Design

We would especially like to thank Phoebe and Alex and the team at Tinsmiths and all the local businesses that we are proud to work alongside for the years to come. Our Showroom is open and welcoming visitors from Tuesday-Saturday, 10am-5pm. Don’t forget to make a day of it and explore the many wonderful shops Ledbury has to offer.
