Auldhouse Retail Park itself doesn’t look too hot and this has got to be the shop, or one of them, within it that looks particularly uncool and dated. It can’t help it with it’s yellowing sign and cheesy tick at the ‘Right’ in its name.
But, I find this quite endearing kinda like when the boy is drunkenly eating pizza and ends up with tomato sauce streaks on his chin, you know? You know it shouldn’t be endearing, but the fact remains it is — every once and a while.
Indeed, this is a place I have been in a few times but these have been few and far between. Due to this, I really like the place. It’s massive (as all of these retail outlets are) and has a wide range of stock: carpets, vinyls, flooring tiles and even a few rugs. These can be acquired in almost any colour, shade, pattern, quality and price.
There’s even a specific bargain bin area when there are cut offs of different flooring materials that have been found or used in a display etc. Many of these are not especially pleasant or are so small you wonder what you’d be expected to do with them — line the bottom of your wardrobe? Anyway, this is worth having a little look in as every now and again you’ll find something that might find your needs. Though, obviously if you live in a mansion it’s not going to happen but a new build or Glasgow flat — you might get lucky.
Meanwhile, they have a weird little showroom section at the front with dated three piece suites (last time it was a warm pink one with tassells — sexy!) which I always find amusing and slightly creepy at the same time. The other bonus, is very helpful and friendly staff that happily let you browse but are on hand to answer any questions or provide flooring advice, hints and tips.
Excellent for all of your flooring needs.
