On the staircase between the offices and the changing showroom at Edmondson Interiors in Goudhurst, Kent there is a large notice board. This board is covered with hand written letters and cards congratulating Edmondson Interiors or Bespoke Kitchens as we were formerly known, for their fabulous work, creative designs, professionalism, quality craftsmanship, superb fitting & finishing, the team’s sense of humour and lots more.
Edmondson Interiors have been creating quality bespoke kitchens since 1995, and many of their incredibly loyal clients return to work with Edmondson interiors whenever they have a new interiors project needing quality furniture.
These testimonials or kind words often go back to times when people wrote formal letters of gratitude, before modern methods of expressing thanks on Interior Design portals likeHouzz, social media or email.
The website already has lots of other lovely Testimonials, but many more wonderful words of praise have been pinned to this noticeboard and never shared on the website or blog. We thought it was time they were shared.

“It’s about time that we wrote to you to thank you and your team for the kitchen that you created for us earlier this year. We have been enjoying it for some months now and can truly say that it meets the high expectations we had when we commissioned you.
At the outset we were very clear that we knew what we wanted – something clean and simple, modern in style but at home in a rural setting and compatible with the listed building in which it would be housed. Simon understood immediately what we needed and created a design that we could agree straightaway. Of course, simple design is the most difficult to deliver effectively and the devil is, as always, in the detail. The attention to detail at the design stage and then in the delivery was exceptional – from the handmade wooden knobs reflecting a shape we suggested, to the open shelving and the best way to fashion steps down into the kitchen that also allowed access to hidden pipework. This process with considerable skill and not a little patience. The time and effort that was put in during this stage really shows in the finished work. Installation and finishing was also of the same high standard. David Hart spend considerable time ensuring that it all fitted perfectly and Ali produced an immaculate finish to the paintwork.
The result is a Joy: Exactly what we wanted: and much admired by everyone who has seen it. We will be in touch in the New year to discuss the panelling in the adjacent space to tie in with the new kitchen.”
Thank you all once again, Barbara & Chris Wright.

“Thank you for our beautiful “slight changes” to our kitchen. You are Clever people.” Very best wishes. Charlie, Jonathan, Jack & Rose.

“I would like to take this opportunity to say how absolutely thrilled we are with your kitchen and how impressed we have been with your service. Tom Flood was both dynamic and meticulous in his design and we so appreciate the patience and care he took in ensuring that we got the outcome we wanted. Richard was a fantastic sounding board and it was hugely satisfying to see a team effort really coming together. The fitting team were equally helpful and professional and I would be grateful if you could pass on our thanks to them all.
We will have no hesitation in recommending you and and should you wish us to act as a reference, we will be only to happy to do so.” With best wishes. Catherine Hamett

All Edmondson interiors staff were, without exception, friendly and efficient. We would like to single our David hart for his almost obsession to exact fitting detail but all staff were truly a credit to your company. The result is a wonderful kitchen envied by all who see it. We would like to thank all your staff for such a friendly and professional service.” Yours sincerely Terry Smith.

“I am writing to thank you and your team for all the fantastic kitchen you have designed and installed in our home.
Our project was challenging, not least because there were previously 8 door leading from the room, but also we were on a specific time frame and I came to your later in the process than perhaps I should have done.
Your design has been exemplary, surpassing our expectation and accommodating the idiosyncrasies of an older home. We have been impressed by the high standard of all your workmanship and no request was too much trouble.
The entire team from design to fitting and finishing were a delight to have in the house, in fact I became quite lovely once the job was done!
It is such a pleasure to walk into and indeed work in our kitchen.
Many thanks to you all” Judith Dorning.

“I want to thank you all for me beautiful kitchen – every time I walk into the room I LOVEit. It was fitted about 4 years ago and I don’t think I ever wrote as my father was undergoing treatment for cancer, and it was a very absorbing time.
The care and attention to details – the comraderie of the company-made putting in a new kitchen a pleasurable experience.
I would like to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the way you dealt with the problem we had with the Quooker tap recently. It would have been a nuisance and a pain had it not been for your professional, prompt, caring approach, which meant it was all dealt with and sorted out with a minimum disturbance to ourselves. Due to excellent handling of the situation the stress was minimal.
We really do appreciate everything you have done for us – thank you.
We remembered our first meeting when we were deciding who we wanted to make our kitchen-and one of your selling points was the aftercare too. On the occasion you have not only achieved but with exceptional quality.
I frequently recommend you. I do hope some business has come your way via us.” Kind regards Camilla Harries.
