"The reception from the local community so far has been really positive and really good.
"A lot of customers who have walked in since we opened have said that Beccles and the wider area is really lacking in a home interiors store.
"So it is great we are filling that gap in the market.
"People don't really want to travel now especially with Covid, so it is great we can offer them that local service."

Miss Turner is confident about the customer flow for the store, particularly in the run up to Christmas.
She added: "We've only just opened but already we've had a lot of people coming in.
"We've got a great Christmas range as well so that will attract people in too.
"We hope to attract a loyal customer base in the town and we are looking to do a made to measure service and an interior design service in the future as well."
