Trestle style dining tables - our pick of the best

There’s something reassuringly sturdy about trestle-style dining tables and the design of these beautiful, solid tables give a dining room a timeless quality. You’ll find trestle table designs to suit rustic, modern and industrial-style interiors. Long refectory-style tables are perfect for large kitchens, for family gatherings or when entertaining guests. In an open-plan kitchen or conservatory space trestle tables are the perfect choice – think of rustic tables alongside wooden dressers filled with china in a country conservatory. If your style is more warehouse-chic than rustic, robust tables with concrete or bleached-effect wood tops are ideal for an industrial-style loft conversion.

Add a vintage feel to your home with the help of this Portobello trestle table. Made from 100% solid pine featuring a white painted frame and a bleach-effect tabletop for a rustic feel.
