    I just wanted to say thank you very much for the linen curtains that you made and put up for us.

    They have transformed the room and look so much better and brighter than the previous green ones.

    Many thanks

    Soft Options has been the go to business we have used for about 10 years, for our homes soft furnishings. Previously, we used the well known brands from the high street and on-line, and found they were ok quality and the feel of ‘off the peg’ items. But, at Soft Options, the best quality and the tailored costumer experience was what we were expecting and got in volume. Over the years we have ordered and had crafted, blinds, shutters, over sized curtains, cushions(with designs and fabrics Tailored to the room) and even a sofa was re-upholstered and brought back to… [read more]life using this business. Andy and his staff are friendly, professional and have a stunning show case shop in Honiton. Go meet and see for yourselves.

    My neighbours recommended Andy and his team for our soft furnishing needs. Andy came and measured up and we were absolutely delighted with the curtains and bay window roman blinds. The workmanship was amazing.We had a blip with two other blinds (I had supplied my own fabric and Andy warned me that it might not be enough for both blinds). Unfortunately, there was a mix up and the blinds were made anyway, without double checking with me. They arrived too short and I let Andy know how disappointed I was. He immediately accepted responsibility for… [read more]the issue and invited us to go back to the shop to select replacement fabrics. These were then made up, very quickly, and for no extra charge. I am totally thrilled with the results. I would highly recommend this local, professional company and would not hesitate to use them again.

We wanted to take the time to thank you for your care, hard work, attention to detail and fantastic advice, which you have provided across the various projects you have undertaken in our house during recent years.

    Review : I can’t recommend Soft Options more! They came out with the fabric choices, measured up & gave amazing advice. Next minute they are back fitting the most jaw dropping blinds & curtains I’ve ever seen. We chose a combination of voile roller blinds with a soft linen neutral Roman blind in front – perfect. All fitted in a 16th century farmhouse!

    I am delighted with my blinds, curtains, voiles, runner & cushions and highly recommend Soft Options of Honiton without hesitation.Excellent customer service throughout particularly when choosing my fabric. Julieann spent a lot of time with me, was noting what I was saying and showed me Emma Shipley’s Tigris. Bold, colourful & perfect, but I would not have had the courage to choose without Juliann’s expertise.A high attention to detail, including returns on the blinds to hide the mechanism and fitted expertly and with care.High quality mechanisms and beautifully made.

    Everyone at Soft Options is lovely to work with and the service is exceptional. Bespoke curtains are never ‘cheap’, but paying for quality and workmanship always represents good value in the end. I am thrilled with my curtains and blind; they transform the room just as I’d hoped and I know they will last many years. I will definitely be returning to Soft Options in the future and recommend them unreservedly.

    Brilliant company!We’ve recently moved to the area and needed our whole house decorated with window treatments.I seached online and found Soft Options in Honiton.After visiting the shop and looking through numerous fabrics, Andy came out to give us some much needed advice, What I though were rubish poles were actualy decent and Andy advised us to keep them and not bother changing so it saved us money which I was suprised someone would actually tell us.Everything was done and a very reasonable time scale with no delays and after having the curtains dressed in as Andy put it (which I… [read more]had never had done before) all the curtains and blinds look stunning and the attention we received from everyone was so nice to see.We will definetly recommend you!Many many thanks’The Wrights”Have a great christmas!

The quote was done the same day which really surprised me as many businesses I’ve previously been to… [read more]are unable to quote for weeks!Now the whole job is complete it looks exactly how Andy described and I had pictured in my head (Better actually!)So a massive thank you to all the team for really making everything so simple and stress free.Many thanksMary

    Soft Options have just completed hanging curtains and blinds made for most of our house. They have all been beautifully made and finished. Andy initially came in to measure and gave me useful advice. Once the order was made he came back and hung everything, making sure all was perfect. I am thrilled. The house now looks complete. I have no hesitation recommending Soft Options. If ever I moved house again I would definitely be asking them back.

    I cannot express how happy I am with the service and products we have just received from Soft Options. We live in a grade 2 listed thatched home and as our windows are not regular shapes, not a right angle to be seen. Andy came to measure up and offered lots of advice and I was really struck by his friendly and professional manner. He was also able to show us a wide range of fabrics and helped me to choose a modern fabric which also compliments the traditional style of our home. I was not rushed to make a… [read more]decision, Andy gave me time to think and choose. Once I had made my choice and agreed the quote our blinds were made, delivered and installed, much quicker than I had thought it would be to get bespoke blinds hand made, with no mess and no fuss, even though I was panicking about huge holes in our 600 year old cob walls, he had real expertise in ensuring that the blinds were installed to a very high standard. The mechanisms are the best quality I have ever seen and the attention to detail is second to none. I have already decided to go back and ask Soft Options to make window seat cushions and other items! Thanks to everyone involved – couldn’t be happier with the service and products. Great to find a local service that I can recommend to others.

Loads of choice from a large range of fabrics with all the brands you would expect, Andy came straight down to Tavistock to measure and quoted for everything that same evening.Andy really gave us some great ideas, the price was very similar to what we had been quoted on by other companies, but Andy fitted everything and hung… [read more]everything as well!
