Furleigh Estate:
A rebuild from the ground up for a celebrated English sparkling wine producer
Problem
When Furleigh Estate came to 5forests, their website was in an unworkable state due to unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances. With no access to the hosting environment and no viable path forward, they needed a new site—built from scratch—that could serve as a dependable foundation for their business.
Background
Furleigh’s look was never the problem: the brand, the photography and the calm elegance of the estate were already right. So the brief was to keep what visitors knew and rebuild everything underneath it, from the shop and the wine club to cellar door visits and weddings.
Meaningful change
We approached the project with care, preserving what made Furleigh special while modernizing the site’s infrastructure, user experience, and e-commerce functionality on WordPress and Commerce7. The new platform reflects the calm elegance of the estate, simplifies navigation, and makes it easier for visitors to discover and buy Furleigh’s award-winning sparkling wines. Just as importantly, it gives the Furleigh team back the confidence and control to manage their site moving forward—without added stress or complexity.
