Here at Yorkshiremillshops we offer a range of products and services online, from bespoke bedlinen to villas in Spain.
Our bed linen is made high up in the Pennine hills, in what was once the heart of the textile industry. Here you will find an old brick mill where the workers once started their day at 6 o'clock in the morning, before the advent of automation and high-speed machines.
Today, nothing much has changed. As you climb the old wooden stairs that leads to the top floor, you walk in the footsteps of workers long gone, to the cutting room where the present day workers still lay the fabric by hand and cut the products using shears instead of electric knives.
The mill survived the industrial revolution, the company, a member of the British Interior Textile Association and guild of master craftsmen, survived the dotcom revolution and now offer bespoke bed linens in a range of Egyptian cotton, luxury combed cotton fabric, super percale and standard polyester/cotton, all waiting to be cut and made into customers requirements, using skills passed down from generation to generation. Everything here is made to measure.
It's a proud boast that if you can sketch it, they can make it.
Our aim is quality and first class service,ever mindful of the words of the English writer,
John Ruskin 1819 -1900

Q. DO YOU SHARE OUR DETAILS WITH OTHERS?
A. No, we do not share your details with anyone. Neither do we send sales/marketing emails. Once your order is complete the next time you will hear from us is when we send you an e-card for Christmas.
Fantastic service! Having had a very small timeframe to get a custom-made duvet, made and shipped to us in France, it was such a relief to have found an excellent company to work with. Peter was very helpful, quick to respond to any queries and got the duvet to us in an even shorter amount of time than we thought possible! Would definitely recommend and no doubt we will be using them again.

"Having bought a round bed from IKEA for my daughter I then faced the difficult task of finding some bed linen to fit. After considerable searching on the Internet I came across Yorkshire Mill Shops. I called them and they couldn't have been helpful. The products and service lived up to earlier expectations. The linen arrived on time, with excellent follow up and the product was well made. I would thoroughly recommend this company to others." - Mrs Vaughan - Maidenhead
