This collection gathers the Somerford fabric range in a single chocolate colourway: 13 coordinating pieces in one warm brown fabric, spanning an armchair, 2 and 3 seater sofas, a left- and right-hand corner chaise, and a full ladder of matching sets from a 2+1 up to a three-piece 3+2+1. Because it is one design in one colour, every piece coordinates, so you can furnish a whole room in a consistent look without having to match shades across different ranges. Whether you want a single armchair, a family-sized corner, or a full three-piece suite, the chocolate finish stays the same throughout.
One thing to be aware of at the time of writing: rather more than half of the range is sold out, so use the availability filter to see what you can order today. For the same look in other fabric ranges, see our fabric sofas collection.
The range comes in a single colour: chocolate, a warm, deep brown. It is a cosy, forgiving shade that hides everyday marks well and works in both traditional and modern rooms. Brown is an easy colour to build a room around, and chocolate in particular pairs happily with cream, tan, or brighter accent cushions and throws. It reads as warm and inviting rather than cold, which makes it a popular choice for a family living room where the sofa gets a lot of use.
Because there is only one colour, the choice here is really about size and format rather than shade. Screens vary, so treat the product images as a guide to the exact tone, and view a piece in the showroom first if the colour is critical to you. For brown across other ranges, see our brown sofas collection.
The whole range is upholstered in fabric, not leather. The product titles describe it as “Fabric”, so we describe it simply as fabric and keep it distinct from leather, suede and velvet, which look, feel and wear differently. Fabric is a soft, warm everyday upholstery that is comfortable to sit on and easy to dress with cushions and throws. It tends to feel warmer to the touch than leather and gives a room a softer, more relaxed look, which many people prefer for a living room.
The exact fabric composition and whether the covers are removable are not confirmed in the current data, so if a precise detail matters, check the individual product page or call our team before ordering. For a mix of styles in fabric, browse the full sofas range.
The range covers a full ladder of formats: an armchair, a 2 seater and a 3 seater sofa, a left- and right-hand corner chaise, and matching sets from a 2+1 up to a three-piece 3+2+1, taking in 3+1, 2+2, 3+2, 3+3, 2+1+1 and 3+1+1. The numbers are the seats in each piece, so a 3+2+1 is a three-seater, a two-seater and an armchair, giving you three separate pieces to arrange as you like.
An armchair or 2 seater suits a snug or a smaller room; a 3 seater or a 2+2 suits most living rooms; and a corner or a larger set suits a bigger space. Buying a matching set is usually the most economical way to seat a larger household, since the pieces are made to coordinate and are priced together. Availability varies a lot right now, so use the size and availability filters together. To compare compact options, see our 2 seater sofas collection.
The Somerford corner comes as a left-hand or right-hand chaise. The hand describes which side the longer chaise section is on as you look at the sofa from the front, so it needs to match the way you plan to place it in your room. Sit or stand facing where the sofa will go and decide which side you want the chaise before you order, as a corner is not reversible once made.
A corner chaise gives generous lounging seating and works well tucked into the corner of a room, though it needs enough wall length for the longer section to sit comfortably. It is a good choice if you like to stretch out, or if you want to seat several people along one continuous run. If you are unsure which hand you need, call us on 02476 705 600.

The sets pair the same Somerford chocolate fabric design in matching combinations, from a compact 2+1 up to a three-piece 3+2+1, so you can furnish a whole room in one consistent look. A set is usually the most economical way to seat a larger household, since the pieces are made to coordinate and are priced together rather than bought separately.
Because a set arrives as separate pieces, it is often easier to manoeuvre through doorways than one very large sofa, and it gives you flexibility in how you arrange the room. Several of the sets are in stock while others are currently sold out. For coordinated suites across ranges, see our sofa sets collection.
Start with how many people you seat and the space you have, then match a size to it. A corner chaise or a larger set needs enough room to sit comfortably, ideally with a little clearance around it rather than pushed hard against the walls, so the room does not feel cramped and people can move around it easily.
Exact dimensions are not all confirmed in the current data, so treat each product page’s measurements as the deciding factor, and mark the footprint on your floor before ordering — especially for a corner, where the chaise length matters. For help sizing a bigger room, compare the 3 seater sofas range.
Measure the width and height of every doorway, hallway, stairwell and tight turn each piece must pass through, plus lift dimensions if you are above ground level. A set arrives as separate pieces, which helps with access; a corner is a larger single item, so check the route carefully before ordering.
Delivery to England and Wales is free and handled by our two-person team, with the product page showing a short delivery timeframe at the time of writing. Confirm the packaged dimensions before your delivery date, and make sure the route is clear on the day. Full guidance is on our delivery information page.
Vacuum the fabric gently with an upholstery attachment to lift dust, and blot spills promptly with a clean cloth rather than rubbing them in, working from the outside of a mark inwards so you do not spread it. Keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight so the colour stays true, and plump the cushions from time to time to keep their shape.
Specific care codes and whether the covers are removable are not confirmed in the current data, so always follow the product’s care label and instructions, and test any cleaning product on a hidden area first. Chocolate is a forgiving shade that tends to hide everyday marks well between cleans, which is one of the practical advantages of a darker brown in a busy household. For lighter neutrals, see our cream sofas collection.
At the time of writing rather more than half of the range is sold out. The armchair, the 3 seater sofa, the right-hand corner chaise and the 3+1, 3+3 and 3+1+1 sets are in stock (some with only a few left), while the 2 seater, the left-hand corner and several of the sets are sold out. The range is currently reduced from its usual price; the exact saving varies by item and can change, so treat the price and saving on each product page as authoritative.
Stock changes constantly, so treat the live product pages as authoritative, use the availability filter, and use the “notify me when back in stock” option on any sold-out piece so you hear as soon as it returns. Browse the wider range in our corner sofas hub for in-stock alternatives.
