Press Coverage...

We generally do not blow our own trumpet, but it is of course great when other people do... Any enquiries, call us on 01227 469 413 or email info@oakandrope.co.uk and we will get back to you very shortly.

We are honoured to have received the most priceless publicity possible. We could not have asked for a better ambassador for our swing.

Our policy of never disclosing any details about our customers and orders paid off in spades when Buckingham Palace released the official photographs for Prince George's 3rd birthday. This news report and photograph travelled the world in 2016, five years after we quietly had received the commission for this swing for The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's wedding in 2011.

Our swings are hanging in many beautiful and prominent places, but this is most likely the most famous one.

Written up beautifully in The Telegraph at the time...
