Creating the shaker dream without the price tag

So, you want a stunning shaker kitchen, but without the price tag?

It's something we hear a lot, the classic in-frame look is as popular as ever. But (and maybe it’s because of the extortionate cost of living at the moment) an increasing number of people are trying to squeeze more out of less.

They want everything that a classic shaker represents, but without paying the full whack.

It’s a somewhat frustrating dilemma, but luckily, we’ve got a solution!

It comes in the form of The Belsay — actually one of our most popular shaker kitchen ranges.

Available in eight stunning colours, it’s a style that looks good in any home. Chosen in the right hue and with the right handles, the door bridges the gap between contemporary and traditional perfectly. Indeed, you may get everything they want — without the price tag.

The Belsay is a shaker kitchen but rather than being made of solid timber, it’s
built with MDF doors, with a woodgrain effect finish. It's the perfect option if you want to achieve that timeless shaker kitchen aesthetic without going over budget.

Yes, the brochure pics always look incredible, but below is one of our recently completed projects, which we think comes pretty close to the catalogue!

Here, we’ve used The Belsay in Dove Grey for a home in Morningside. Combined with Calacatta Aurum Quartz worktops and Neff appliances, the result is a classy and functional kitchen with ample storage space.

Of course, if you wanted to reduce the cost down even further, it’s worth considering laminate worktops. And for appliances that are friendlier on your wallet, consider Hotpoint. We’ve been using them for years and they really do offer incredible value for money.

We've built a reputation for high-quality offers and excellent service, all within the most reasonable price range.
