It’s all in the details
Windows are defined by many things, including what coloured finish they parade and the handles and hinges married into their design. TWC invites you to dictate every detail as it’s only right that you get to personalise such a vital home component.
Classic shades and woodgrain finishes
There is no exaggeration on our part when we say that we have hundreds of shades, textures and wood effects to pick from. Finding a colour to match your property will be so simple as we have the perfect mix of traditional colours and emerging favourites. Trial different colours with one of our consultants to discover a shade you love.
Sleek finishes for modern homes
TWC applies finishes to Eclipse aluminium frames over a course of 11 stages, using an innovative powder-coating technique. When conducting this, strong paint adhesions are induced, and it culminates in the most luscious effects. We employ the sublimation method to formulate our aluminium woodgrains of Oak, Rosewood and Walnut, which mirror authentic woodgrains.
Finishing touches that matter
When you look at and touch our traditional and contemporary handles, you gain an appreciation for how much time and effort has been put into making them by our craftspeople. You can trust the locking system in the handles to stop your windows being forced open when locked.
Customise your cottage windows
Personalise your new cottage windows with decorative and practical glazing options that add privacy, character and style while keeping your home bright, welcoming and beautifully finished.
Explore the possibilities.
Choosing new windows and doors is easier when you can see the options up close. A showroom visit will also be a perfect introduction to colours, hardware and glazing and you can sit down with a design expert to start planning window replacements.

Common questions about cottage windows
Cottage style windows are the perfect choice for any homeowner looking to add a heritage aesthetic to their property. To help you decide if these windows are right for you, we’ve answered some of our mostly commonly asked questions below.
1. What are cottage style windows?
Cottage windows typically feature a charming design with multiple small panes divided by Georgian bars, evoking a timeless and classic look. The inclusion of Georgian bars enhances the authenticity of these windows, providing a distinctive appearance reminiscent of heritage architecture.
2. What are the best windows for cottages?
We would overwhelmingly encourage you to choose cottage windows for cottage dwellings as that’s what they’re crafted for. The Georgian bar effect gives them a genuine and esteemed heritage aesthetic evocative of cherished window styles previously prevalent in Oxfordshire and neighbouring counties.
3. Can cottage windows suit a modern home?
They certainly can and there are many examples of them complementing modern dwellings. With the character they have, rarely do they look out of place wherever they’re fitted. Locate a finish and adornments that will help cottage windows harmonise with home architecture.
4. Can you install cottage windows in a conservation area?
Installing cottage windows in a conservation area typically involves navigating stringent regulations. Cottage windows are specifically designed to meet these high standards by faithfully replicating the older style of windows found in historical homes. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail ensure a seamless replication of historical window designs.
5. Can cottage windows be personalised?
There’s ample scope for personalising cottage windows, with a wide variety of finishes, glazing and decorative details available to specify. Embrace the options to realise cottage windows that feel distinctly yours, whether they display a heritage-inspired appearance or modern contemporary image.
6. Are cottage windows secure?
While a cottage window design harks back to windows of yesteryear, it features the very latest secure technology, including an advanced multi-point lock. A durable frame material offers robust protection against break-ins too. So, you can have confidence in cottage windows keeping your home out of reach.
7. What colour windows for a cottage?
Actively explore the colour palette for the collection and abundant textures, hues, and wood effects. White and Cream work terrifically with cottages. When undecided between two colours, combine them both and specify a dual finish so that you can have e.g. Chartwell Green externally and Matt Black on the inside.
8. Do cottage windows need regular maintenance?
No, they don’t as they’re crafted using low-maintenance materials. In contrast to traditional timber cottage windows, there’s no requirement for repeated sanding or repainting, with just the occasional clean being enough to keep the frame sparkling and window performing at its optimum.
