The opening date for the Isle of Wight's first Wren Kitchens showroom has been confirmed, with special celebrations planned for its opening weekend.

The kitchen and bedroom retailer will open its doors on Friday, December 4 at Newport Retail Park.

To mark the occasion, customers attending design appointments over the opening weekend will be offered complimentary cupcakes and prosecco.

The new showroom can be found between Superdrug and Aldi at the long-awaited retail park development, which has been built on the site of the former Newport IW FC football ground.

Photos taken at the site show the new showroom taking shape, with Wren's distinctive green branding now covering the windows and signage, advertising the upcoming opening.

The new premises will cover approximately 7,000 square feet and are expected to create ten jobs.

Wren Kitchens has also announced that it is already accepting bookings for home measurements and design appointments ahead of the opening.

As well as kitchens, the showroom will offer design services for bedrooms, fitted wardrobes, utility rooms, home offices and living spaces.

Customers will be able to explore a range of displays and work with designers to plan their projects, using virtual reality technology and 3D renders to visualise how their finished rooms could look.

The company is also advertising complimentary design consultations and home measurements.

Wren Kitchens is one of six major businesses taking up units at Newport Retail Park, where several stores are opening in the run-up to Christmas.

McDonald's became the first business to open at the development on September 30, followed by Costa Coffee's drive-thru, which held its grand opening on November 5.

Aldi is set to welcome its first customers at 8am on Thursday, November 19, while B&M has confirmed its new store, which will also feature a garden centre, will open on Friday, November 27.

Superdrug is also preparing to open a new store at the retail park, although an opening date has yet to be announced.
