What's in this collection?The complete Canterbury range in truffle fabric — 12 matching pieces: an armchair, 2 and 3 seater sofas, a high-back corner sofa, and coordinated sets from 2+1 to 3+2+1. One range, one colour, one fabric, and the whole collection is in stock.
What's in This Collection?
This collection is the full Canterbury range in a single truffle colourway. It runs from a single armchair, through 2 and 3 seater sofas, to matching sets in 2+1, 3+1, 2+2, 3+2, 3+3, 2+1+1, 3+1+1 and 3+2+1, plus a high-back corner sofa. Because every piece is the same range, colour and fabric, they're all designed to sit together — so you can start with one sofa now and add a matching armchair or second sofa later, confident it will coordinate.
That makes the main decision simply which configuration suits your room and how many seats you need. The whole range is currently in stock. If you'd like to see other options, browse all fabric sofas, corner sofas or sofa sets.
About the Canterbury Range
The Canterbury is a comfortable, everyday upholstered range with a classic, family-friendly look. In this truffle colourway it has a warm, understated tone that suits most living rooms. As a single coordinated range it takes the guesswork out of matching — the armchair, sofas, corner and sets all share the same design and fabric, so a room built entirely from Canterbury Truffle pieces has a consistent, considered feel. Exact design details, dimensions and fabric specification are shown on each product page.
Buying within one range has practical advantages beyond the matching look. You can spread the purchase over time — start with a sofa now and add the armchair or a second sofa when it suits your budget — without worrying that the colour or design will have moved on, provided the piece you want is still in stock. It also makes planning a room simpler: rather than trying to pair items from different ranges that may differ subtly in tone, height or seat depth, everything in Canterbury Truffle is built to sit together from the outset.
What Colour Is Truffle?
Truffle is a warm mid-brown taupe — softer and lighter than a chocolate brown, with a greige, earthy quality. It's a practical, versatile shade: warm enough to feel cosy, neutral enough to work with a wide range of schemes, and more forgiving of everyday marks than pale creams or greys. It pairs naturally with cream and off-white, sage and olive greens, warm metals and natural wood. Because screen colours can differ slightly from the real fabric, we'd suggest a showroom visit or a sample if the exact tone matters for your room.
Truffle also earns its place as a practical everyday choice. Being a warm mid-tone rather than a pale shade, it doesn't show dust, everyday marks and general wear as readily as cream or light grey, which makes it a sensible option for a family living room or a busy household. At the same time it feels warmer and cosier than a cool grey, so it suits rooms where you want an inviting rather than a minimalist feel. It works as either the star of a neutral scheme or a grounding base that you dress up with cushions and throws in bolder tones.
Configurations: Chair, Sofas, Corner and Sets
The range covers a single armchair, single 2 and 3 seater sofas, a high-back corner sofa, and matching multi-piece sets. The set notation shows how the seats split across pieces — a 3+2 is a 3 seater plus a 2 seater, and a three-part set such as 3+2+1 adds an armchair. Here's how the options compare.
| Configuration | Pieces | Typical use | Best suited to |
|---|
| Armchair | One chair | A single seat or accent chair | Adding one matching seat; reading corner |
| 2 / 3 Seater | One sofa | Main sofa | Small to medium rooms, couples, families |
| 2+1 / 3+1 | Sofa + armchair | Sofa plus a personal chair | Couples wanting an extra seat |
| 2+2 / 3+2 | Two sofas | Popular family layout | Families, hosting |
| 3+3 / 2+1+1 / 3+1+1 / 3+2+1 | Two 3 seaters, or sofa(s) + armchairs | Maximum coordinated seating | Larger rooms, frequent hosts |
| High-back corner sofa | One L-shaped corner | Space-efficient corner seating | Making the most of a corner; taller sitters (high back) |
Exact dimensions vary by piece and aren't assumed here, so check the width, depth and height on the product page for your chosen configuration, and measure your room and the route in. See the wider 3 seater sofas and 2 seater sofas ranges for more sizes.
The High-Back Corner Sofa
The Canterbury Truffle also comes as a high-back corner sofa — an L-shaped design that tucks seating into a corner and makes the most of the floor space, with a higher back that gives more support up to head and neck height, which taller sitters often prefer. A corner works well as the main seating in a family living room or an open-plan space. Corner sofas can be left-hand or right-hand depending on which way the longer run faces, and may arrive in sections, so check the orientation and dimensions on the product page and measure both walls it will run along before ordering.
Choosing for Your Room
For a smaller room, the armchair with a 2 seater, or a 2+1 set, keeps things in proportion. For a family living room, a 3 seater, a 3+2 or the corner sofa is the classic choice. If you host often or have a larger space, the bigger sets such as 3+2+1 or 3+3 give the most matching seating. Because it's all one range, a good approach is to choose your main sofa first, then add a matching armchair or second piece if you need more seats — everything will coordinate. Whatever you choose, measure the space and the access route before ordering.
Fabric Care
Always follow the product-specific care instructions on the product page or supplied with your order. As a general routine for the truffle fabric, blot spills promptly with a clean, dry or slightly damp cloth rather than rubbing, and vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment to lift dust and keep the surface even. Avoid harsh cleaners and abrasive tools, and keep the sofa out of prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade colour over time, and away from excessive heat such as radiators. Plump the cushions regularly to keep their shape. Check the product page for any fabric-specific advice.
Stock, Delivery and Finance
Availability is shown live on each product, and at the time of writing the whole range is in stock — so you can order any configuration, or build a matching set piece by piece, without waiting for a restock. A few sets show low stock (a couple show only two or three left), so it's worth ordering promptly on those. Delivery is free to England and Wales by a two-person team, and delivery times can vary by product, so take the timeframe from the live product card rather than assuming one date. You can spread the cost with interest-free finance, subject to credit check — see the finance information page. If you change your mind, our 14-day returns policy applies; details are on the returns information and delivery information pages.

Frequently asked questions about the Canterbury Truffle range
What's included in this collection?
The complete Canterbury range in truffle fabric — 12 matching pieces: an armchair, 2 and 3 seater sofas, a high-back corner sofa, and coordinated sets in 2+1, 3+1, 2+2, 3+2, 3+3, 2+1+1, 3+1+1 and 3+2+1. It's one range, one colour and one fabric, and the whole collection is currently in stock.
What colour is truffle?
Truffle is a warm mid-brown taupe — softer and lighter than a chocolate brown, with an earthy, greige quality. It's warm enough to feel cosy but neutral enough to suit many schemes, and it's more forgiving of everyday marks than pale creams or greys. It pairs well with cream, sage and olive greens, natural wood and warm metals.
What material is the Canterbury Truffle range?
Every piece in this collection is a fabric finish — there's no leather, suede or velvet in the range. The exact fabric specification is shown on each product page. Fabric is soft and warm to sit on and, in this truffle tone, easy to build a room around.
Do all the pieces match?
Yes — that's the main advantage of a single-range collection. The armchair, sofas, corner and sets all share the same Canterbury design, truffle colour and fabric, so they're designed to coordinate. You can buy a matching set together, or start with one sofa and add pieces later, confident they'll tie together.
What configurations can I buy?
A single armchair, single 2 and 3 seater sofas, a high-back corner sofa, and matching sets in 2+1, 3+1, 2+2, 3+2, 3+3, 2+1+1, 3+1+1 and 3+2+1. The set notation shows how seats split across pieces — a 3+2+1 is a 3 seater plus a 2 seater plus an armchair. Use the filters to find the size you need.
What is the difference between a 3+2 and a 3+2+1 set?
A 3+2 set is a 3 seater sofa plus a 2 seater sofa. A 3+2+1 adds a single matching armchair, giving an extra individual seat and the most coordinated seating. The 3+2+1 needs more floor space, so measure your room and plan the layout before choosing between them.
Can I buy just the armchair?
Yes — the Canterbury Truffle armchair is available on its own. It works as a single accent or reading chair, or as a matching addition to one of the sofas. Because it's the same range, it will coordinate perfectly if you already have or later add a Canterbury Truffle sofa.
Tell me about the high-back corner sofa.
The Canterbury Truffle high-back corner sofa is an L-shaped design that makes the most of a corner, with a higher back for more support up to head height, which taller sitters often prefer. It suits a family living room or open-plan space. Check the orientation (left- or right-hand) and dimensions on the product page before ordering.
Do corner sofas come left or right handed?
Corner sofas can be left-hand or right-hand depending on which side the longer run sits when you face the sofa. Where the corner offers a specific orientation, it's shown on the product page — check it against your room before ordering. If you're unsure which you need, call our team on 02476 705 600 and describe the space.
How do I measure for a sofa or set?
Measure the wall space and floor depth where it will sit and mark the footprint on the floor, leaving room for walkways. For the corner, measure both walls it will run along. Then check those figures against the product's dimensions on its page. For a multi-piece set, plan where each piece will go before ordering.
How do I measure doorway and hallway access?
Measure your doorways, hallways, tight turns, staircases and any lift at the narrowest point, for both width and height, and check those against the product dimensions. The corner sofa and larger sets may arrive in sections — check the product page or ask our team on 02476 705 600 before ordering if access is tight.
How should I care for the fabric?
Follow the product-specific care instructions first. As a general routine, blot spills promptly rather than rubbing, vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment, and avoid harsh cleaners and abrasive tools. Keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight and away from excessive heat, and plump the cushions regularly to keep their shape.
How long will a Canterbury Truffle sofa last?
There's no single figure — it depends on how much it's used, how well it's cared for and the product's construction. We don't quote a fixed number of years or make durability claims. Following the fabric-care guidance and checking the product page for its specification is the best guide to what to expect.
Are the products in stock?
Yes — at the time of writing the entire range of 12 is in stock, which makes it easy to buy a matching set or add pieces over time. Availability is shown live on each product, and a few sets show only two or three left, so it's worth ordering promptly if you've chosen one of those.
Can I build the set piece by piece?
Yes — because it's one coordinated range, you can start with a single sofa or armchair and add matching pieces later, and they'll tie together. Just bear in mind that stock levels change, so if you're planning to add a specific piece, it's worth checking its availability or ordering sooner rather than later.
How quickly is delivery?
Delivery is free to England and Wales by a two-person team, and timeframes can vary by product. Please check the timeframe shown on the product card for the item you're considering, or ask our team on 02476 705 600 to confirm the current lead time, especially for the corner sofa or a multi-piece set.
Are finance options available?
Yes — you can spread the cost with our interest-free finance options, subject to credit check. Current providers and terms are shown on our finance information page and at checkout, so you can compare and choose the plan that suits your budget. Call 02476 705 600 if you'd like help.
What should I do if my sofa arrives damaged?
Inspect your sofa on arrival, keep the packaging where practical, and take clear photographs of any damage. Then contact Furniture Instore promptly on 02476 705 600 or through our support channels so we can help put it right. Reporting it quickly, with photos, makes resolving it much easier.
Can I return a Canterbury Truffle sofa?
Yes — our 14-day change-of-mind returns policy applies, and conditions apply. Please see our
returns information page for the full current terms and how to arrange a return, or call our team on 02476 705 600 if you'd like to talk it through first.
What warranty applies?
Warranty terms vary by product, so please check the details shown on the individual product page, or contact our team on 02476 705 600 to confirm the cover for the specific piece you're considering. We'd rather give you the exact terms for your chosen item than a general figure.
