Dining nooks are one of the most charming ways to fit a place to eat into a modern British home, whether that means a banquette tucked into a kitchen corner, a bay window seat or a slim alcove beside the stairs. They are also small, which makes the choice of table critical.

The best designs combine a smooth, secure pivot, a base that leaves room for knees and bench seating, a neat seam where the two halves meet and a finish that suits the rest of the room. This guide explains how swivel top tables work, why they suit nooks so well, which features separate the good from the disappointing, and how to size one against banquette seating, chairs and the walls around it....
