A BESPOKE furniture shop and showroom is "proud" to be opening its doors in Salisbury, just in time for the New Year.
Sofas and Stuff will be taking over the former Laura Ashley store on New Canal, offering a large collection of sofas, chairs, sofa beds, beds and footstools, all made in Britain.
Launched in 2009, the latest addition to the chain will be bringing design consultants to the city centre, helping customers create bespoke furniture with every piece handmade to order.
The business says it is "proud to welcome customers from Salisbury and the surrounding area into a relaxed showroom environment".

Andrew Cussins, founder and CEO of Sofas and Stuff, said: “We are excited to launch our new showroom in Salisbury, bringing the Sofas and Stuff experience to the beautiful town and surrounding area.
"Our team can’t wait to become part of the community, and to welcome customers into our new home.”
Mr Cussins began his career in 1980, starting out as an apprentice at his father’s long-standing furniture empire, Waring and Gillow.
He went on to found Sofa Workshop, which he sold in 2002, after helping to furnish 750,000 living rooms.
Noticing a gap in the market for bespoke, handmade British sofas and beds, the Sofas and Stuff story began around 13 years ago with just four employees in Fittleworth, West Sussex, where their flagship store and head office are still based today.
The Salisbury branch of Sofas and Stuff plans to open on December 27.
To celebrate the new store, one lucky customer can win a sofa worth £2,000.
