Show Notes
North West Leicestershire District Council approved plans for Vintage Sofa Company to convert Abbots Oak Country House into a high-end furniture showroom, adding retail space alongside existing hotel and home uses. The historic building, previously a boutique hotel and wedding venue, will now showcase British-made sofas, with actual pieces built off-site. The showroom will operate separately from the hotel, with around ten staff handling ten appointment slots daily. The company aims to create a unique experience for customers, allowing them to stay overnight after design consultations. Planners will monitor highway safety and neighborhood peace to ensure the revival maintains the historic gems charm while blending old and new business flows.
