”Carol has been helping our clients for nearly 20 years and is an excellent and extremely experienced interior designer. She builds a close relationship with clients and is able to interpret their style, work to a budget and implement projects of any scale. Always a delight to work with, my colleagues and I have no hesitation in recommending her. I would be happy to elaborate if anyone wants to speak.”

“It gives me the greatest of pleasure to write a few words as a reference for Carol who is unequivocally the only interior designer that I recommend.I have known Carol for over 20 years and throughout this time I have recommended her to various clients and friends.On each and every occasion, they have been thoroughly delighted as she is highly efficient, totally honest and such a delight to work with. More importantly however, Carol understands the 'look' that the market requires, so in addition to a good standard and quality of work, Carol manages with such ease to add capital value to one's home. As a 'search and buying agent this is vitally important to me.”

“Carol has worked on every property I’ve been involved with for 20 years from big ultramodern houses to country homes; she is, in a word, phenomenal.

Not only does Carol have impeccable taste, she also has extraordinary vision and can see the potential and the pitfalls in a way no one else, not even builders, can. In addition, Carol is also the most efficient and organised person I’ve ever come across which means everything is managed with calm and military precision.

I trust her sense of style to the point that I’ve been happy to leave major decisions to her alone, knowing that whatever she decides will be the thing to do. She can take the essence of what I want and translate it perfectly. Carol treats budgets and times scales with such care that I’ve never had a moments worry about any detail – no nasty shocks and updates all the time. She knows when money needs to be spent and crucially, where it can be saved.

I genuinely cannot recommend her highly enough and I am more than happy to give a verbal reference on the phone. In addition to creating beautiful homes for me, she also saved me a fortune in terms of doing the right thing and letting every experience be a happy, stress-free one. ”

“Carol Bennett has decorated 2 London flats in Egerton Place and one 7 bedroomed house in Lincolnshire for us.   All three have been total renovations.  Carol is brilliant.  My husband is a perfectionist but doesn’t have the time to get too involved and I prefer to stay as clear of an interior design shop as I can.  However, Carol manages me and my husband perfectly.  Carol not only makes it fun but it is also so easy with her.  Her taste is exquisite so I know that what every combination I go with out of her suggestions - it will look stunning.  Even more cleverly - at the end of it - my husband and I think we have done a really good job feeling without being too stressed by the whole thing.  In actual truth - it’s all been Carol.  How clever is that?!”

“Carol Bennett was introduced to us by some friends who have used her on numerous occasions.  Our house in London was unloved, untouched and needed a lot of attention to detail.  I am based in the country and didn’t have the time or experience to do it all myself and wanted to create a home away from home that we all enjoyed being in.  We gutted it and started from scratch, electrics, heating, lighting, bathrooms etc. it was a big project.

As soon as I met Carol I knew we were in safe hands.  She got our brief immediately.  She understood what we were trying to achieve and with her and Len Carter, her contractor, the whole process was a pure joy.  

I would have no hesitation in recommending Carol, she made the whole process fun rather than daunting, was efficient, stayed on track time wise and has immaculate taste and a wonderful eye.  We were very lucky to find her.”

Carol Bennett redesigned, produced the schedule of works for the contractor, liaised with the builders and sourced and organised the soft furnishings on a complete refurbishment of our flat in Rutland Gate. 

It was a big job and we were keen to have it finished quickly.

Carol is extremely efficient and experienced.  She has an extensive knowledge of products and ideas and has a very good eye for detail.The whole project was finished on time and within budget. I think this partly because she had thought of all the minutiae.

I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Carol, in my opinion she is very efficient and professional.

Carol came to us highly recommended by the company that found the house in which we now live.

The house itself was structurally sound but tired and unloved. We sat down with Carol and went through it room by room and were immediately impressed by not only her knowledge and taste but the pragmatism she brought to bear. It’s very easy to spend money unnecessarily and Carol took great care to make sure that didn’t happen.

Her knowledge of suppliers must be unrivalled! We were able to visit those which were most relevant to our needs without spending hours trailing round London to no avail.Carol is extremely efficient as well as creative, a rare combination in our experience which made for a refreshingly stress-free project. Carol is a hands-oindividual who is clearly respected (and slightly feared!) by her suppliers and will ensure that the project is completed to the highest standards.

We would unhesitatingly use her again.
