Handmade kitchen company Olive & Barr has opened its flagship showroom, The Barn, on a country estate in Worcestershire.
It has relocated its Malvern business to a 6,500sqft Grade II Jacobean barn, within Kyre Park in Tenbury Wells.
Spanning 40 acres this privately-owned estate, originally designed in 1754 by landscape architect Capability Brown, features five lakes, waterfalls, and follies.

The Barn showroom features three kitchen displays on the ground floor and a further two on the mezzanine.
Each display is arranged in life-like room sets, with mix of colours, textures and scents, enabling customers to visualise an Olive & Barr kitchen in their own home.
Throughout the space, The Soho Lighting Company provides a welcoming ambience, and has a display of lighting options, switches, and sockets, from pendants to wall lights.
There are also displays from Ca’Pietra and Bidbury & Co taps.
For those visiting the barn to place an order, Olive & Barr provides complimentary nights stay in a self-contained apartment, which accommodates up to four guests, on the estate.
Founded by cabinet market Al Bruce in 2018, Olive & Barr offers a signature, handmade Shaker style with showrooms in South London and Cheltenham.
Commenting on the launch, Al Bruce said: “We are delighted to be opening our showroom doors to our most exciting venture to date.
“We’ve given a fresh take on how customers shop and visualise their kitchens.
“Each guest can fully immerse themselves into the unique kitchens to discover the quality, style and bespoke elements we so proudly offer at Olive & Barr.
“A very exciting chapter for us and we’ve already received so much wonderful feedback from the local community and customers.
“We look forward to welcoming new and familiar faces within our new flagship showroom.”

They belong to The New Classtone and Fusioncollections which interpret marble and natural stone, respectively, and boast Neolith’s antibacterial NeolEAT technology.
Inspired by Ancient Rome, Calacatta Roma (pictured top) pays homage to Italian Carrara marble, with ochre and grey veins in a white background.
While the Cappadocia region, in central Turkey, with its rock formations formed by volcanoes and underground cities, has inspired Cappadocia Sunset (pictured below).

Just like all of Neolith’s surfaces, Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset are resistant to heat and atmospheric conditions, are 100% recyclable, and do not contain added quartz to their formulation.
