Very unfair sweeping comment, we bought two lots of bedding from English Homes with no chintz or flowers.   I personally, am not a lover of floral bedding.  Lots of the towels are self coloured with decoration on the edges. 
It is always nice to promote local businesses and not put them down.
Karen, I hope you will go and make up your own mind.

Bought beautiful rugs and blankets in Madame Coco. Scoured the internet to find something other than typical Turkish design then popped in Coco assuming it would be too expensive but shocked at the prices and quality. No flowers on them  :)

We have found that the guy in the Sunday/Tuesday market that sell the next/dunelm towels gives the best deals. We bought some there 2 yrs ago and still as good as new. Bought some specific colours last year and still good to

Love madame coco, all my products are still going strong, although they have some lovely stuff they don't have sets of towels so difficult if you want same in a range if sizes.
Had some beauties off the Sunday market man, when I looked at home I noticed the labels had been cut out very carefully but the hand towel still had it on, looks like a very genuine ralph Lauren label , checked the website identical bath towels (same edged pattern) are £70 each!!!

Glad your bits and bobs are going well Mar Kr
We bought bed linen a couple of seasons back and it was terrible.  So bad it went in the bin

Most of the stuff anywhere now is Chinese Tat, sign of the times.

The towels and bedding we have bought at the two shops in the Erasta have labels to say they are made in Turkey.
