Beautiful, versatile handmade kitchen islands

Built around you

At Great British Kitchens and Interiors, we understand that a kitchen island is far more than an extra work surface – it’s the vibrant centrepiece of most kitchen renovations.

In open-plan layouts, a well-designed kitchen island can transform the dynamic of the space and create the natural bridge between the workspace and the social or dining area.

COHESIVE DESIGN

Seamlessly integrated appliance

With kitchen islands that perfectly mirror the surrounding kitchen design, we create a sense of harmony and order.

A BORA cooktop with integrated vapour extraction can be flush-set into the island countertop for a seamless feel. The choice of countertop is key to the design – whether your favour crisp white quartz or more earthy, natural tones, the overall effect is always stunning.

SOCIAL SPACE

At the heart of your home

A well-designed kitchen island transforms mealtimes into shared moments, bringing family and friends together in one inviting space.

Whether it’s breakfast, evening drinks or simply keeping the cook company, the island naturally becomes the gathering point – perfect for conversation, laughter and life’s little celebrations.

INNOVATIVE DESIGN

Creating a feature kitchen island

When it comes to bespoke kitchen islands, every design is unique.

Dramatic natural stone, rich timber accents and bold contemporary finishes can be combined to create elegant and innovative layouts.

For a more traditional approach, painted timber paired with a beautiful wooden worktop is an enduring classic. Whatever your style, we’ll create a statement kitchen island as unique as your home.

SHAPED AROUND YOU

Inspiring ideas, limitless design

Kitchen islands don’t need to follow a rectangular form. Every island we create is bespoke and designed to enhance flow, functionality and style.

We design innovative shapes and layouts to complement your space – from elegant curves that invite conversation to offset peninsulas in contrasting materials to add interest.

In perfect condition and close at hand

Incorporating wine coolers and conditioners into your kitchen island keeps each bottle at its best and ready to enjoy.

LIGHTING MATTERS

For the all-important ambiance

A kitchen island provides the perfect space for striking feature lighting or carefully planned task lighting.

The execution of the work was , from acceptance of quotation to completion was speedily carried out and coordinated with the electric modifications to their usual high standards. Further more the price remained as quoted and accepted.

Having first-hand experience of the quality and craftsmanship of a kitchen from GBK&I, we had no hesitation in asking them to design a kitchen for our new extended space. We met with Vince, who had designed our first kitchen 16 years ago, and Ricky, at the Polehill Showroom to discuss our project. The collaborative design process involved several visits to our home, both before the building work took place, to enable us to see samples in situ, and during the building process, to check final measurements. The final result, expertly installed by Bill, has surpassed our expectations. GBK&I provide a high-quality, bespoke service and we would thoroughly recommend them.

I wanted a replacement for my tired looking caninet. All I can say that it looks amazing and the attention to detail and customer service was excellent. I would definitely recommend Great British Kitchens for any furniture needs you may have.

This is the second time we have used Great British Kitchens (GBK), the first being 23 years ago. The original kitchen was still in excellent condition, which is a real testament to the quality of their product and workmanship. However, we wanted to modernise the space and completely change the layout. From the initial design process through to installation the service was excellent. A special thank you to Rick and Vince for their expertise and input during the design process. We also really appreciated them taking the time to meet with the builders before work commenced to discuss the plans and to ensure everything ran as smoothly as possible. A big thank you also to Bill who fitted the kitchen. Nothing fazed him and his advice during installation was invaluable on the little details that matter. Having used GBK before we were confident that our kitchen would be very special and it certainly is. We are absolutely delighted with the finished result and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a high-quality kitchen and outstanding customer service.

Having built my dream home recently who would I get to do the kitchen, utility and bedrooms? I thought about trying someone else but realised I still love the design and build job these guys did on my current kitchen (12 years ago) and utility (6 years ago) so why go elsewhere? They did not disappoint. Top design by Lee, once he realised my choice of purple would look great, he steered me towards quality appliances too. Fabulous craftsmanship by Ben and the installers Bill & Jeremy, I couldn’t believe they were the same guys from previous years. Highly recommend this company. Top quality from start to finish

We required a truly bespoke fitted bookcase/wall unit that was specific to our particular needs and found this company to be excellent in delivering a design, construct and quality product. No sales pitches and their own directly employed fitters add to the reasons we would recommend them.

What an amazing kitchen GBK&I have helped us create. After discussing our initial ideas, Ricky designed a layout that works perfectly for us. The collaboration and communication during the entire process were excellent. The units are of exceptional quality, with impressive attention to detail. Bill worked seamlessly with our builders and made sure the installation went to plan. Massive thanks to all involved

We had a new kitchen fitted 6 years ago, by Great British Kitchens & Interiors, which still looks fantastic. So we decided to go back to them for under stairs storage. From the initial design by Jack and Ben to the fitting by Jeremy, the process was so easy, professional and top quality! We are absolutely delighted with the finish, which has transformed the space and has given us easy accessible beautiful storage. See photos of before and after. Thank you soo much Jack, Ben and Jeremy.

Thanks to Jack and all at GBK - 15 years after they designed and installed our kitchen they didn’t hesitate to help us out when a contractor caused some damage to what is still our beautiful bespoke kitchen. 😊
