David Page, chairman of the Bow Street Group which owns Wildwood, said it was great to open again following the ten-day refurbishment, with customers having much to look forward to.

He said: “It is quite a big space, so we wanted to cut down the echo.

“We have bought books, we have bought soft furnishings to absorb the sound, new plugs so that people can work from the restaurant, we have new artwork and have changed the colour scheme.
