More About Our Solid Wood Dining Tables

What is a solid wood dining table?

 A solid wood dining table is a dining table made entirely from solid timber — oak, pine, reclaimed wood or mango wood — rather than MDF, chipboard or veneer. Solid wood is stronger, more durable and more repairable than alternatives: scratches can be sanded out, the surface refinished, and the table used for generations. Our dining tables are handmade to order in Halifax, West Yorkshire with a lifetime structural guarantee.

Oak Dining Tables

 The most popular choice in this collection. Oak is naturally dense, slow to scratch and develops a warmer character over time as the grain settles. Available in heritage oak and walnut finishes, in sizes from compact 2-seater up to large 10-seater. Each table is made to order — standard sizes available, bespoke dimensions on request.

Reclaimed Wood Dining Tables

 For a table with genuine history in it. Our reclaimed wood dining tables use solid timber with real character — marks, grain variation, colour differences and the evidence of a previous life. No two tables are identical. Popular in industrial, farmhouse and eclectic interiors where the story of the material matters.

[H3] Drop Leaf Dining Tables The practical choice for smaller rooms. A drop leaf dining table has hinged side sections that fold down when not in use, reducing the footprint significantly. Fold up both leaves for a full family dining table; fold one or both down for everyday use where space is tight.

Narrow Dining Tables

 For galley kitchens, narrow dining rooms and small flats. Our narrow dining tables provide a full dining surface in a reduced footprint — typically 70–75cm wide rather than the standard 90cm. Available in 2-seater and 4-seater sizes in oak and pine.

What Size Dining Table Do I Need?

The right size depends on how many people you need to seat. For 2 people, a table of 80–100cm long and 70–80cm wide is sufficient. For 4 people, aim for 120–140cm long and 75–90cm wide. A 6-seater needs 160–180cm in length and 90cm wide. For 8 people, allow 200–220cm long and 90–100cm wide. A 10-seater needs 240–260cm long and 100cm wide. As a general rule, allow 60cm of space per seated person along the table length and 90cm clearance from table edge to wall for comfortable chair movement.
