So not all of us have space for a dining room, but with today's trend for open-plan kitchen diners, many of us have room, nonetheless, for a dining table. Want the very best one? Choose from our pick of the best.

If you can't decide whether you like light or dark woods, the Wharf dining table, made from distinctive sappy walnut solids and veneers, has interesting colour and contrasts between the top and legs. Ideal if you want to create a grown-up dining area but want something that looks slightly more out of the ordinary. Seats six people comfortably and needs partial assembly (ie, the legs need screwing on).
Wharf dining table, £386, (L180 x W90 x H74 cm).

Sometimes bigger is better when it comes to a dining table. Happily Matthew Hilton's Cross dining table can seat up to 14 people when extended (L295cm) and folds away to a more discreet 200cm. Made from a wenge stained solid oak base with a veneered top. Big, handsome and sturdy, who could ask for more?
