"Stepping into Mackies means escaping the shrill outside world and entering into one of sheer sensuality - sumptuous fabrics; jewel-like cushions; the softest throws; immaculate leather console tables; lovingly-built furniture; superb art; tempting paint colours that soothe and uplift - and immaculate service. At Mackies you'll never be sold anything you don't need or love. When I'm puzzled over a paint choice, James always picks out the right one - usually one I hadn't considered. In fact, all the staff share their knowledge and expertise generously."
