The Argia Collection

Client Name: The Argia Collection
Sector: Hospitality, Leisure & Holiday Lets
Location: Bideford, North Devon

The Argia Collection brings together a family of North Devon businesses: The Patch, a wine bar & kitchen on Cooper Street in Bideford; The Pocket, an indoor bouldering gym & café; Coastal Stays holiday lets in Bideford, Appledore and Westward Ho!; and The Italian Kitchen for private dining.

🔹The Challenge

Four very different businesses, one owner. Alasdair needed customers to be able to book a table, see what’s on, book climbing classes and parties, buy from the shop and book a stay, without a separate website for every business. It all had to feel like one family of brands, while letting each venue keep its own personality.

🔹The Solution

We designed The Argia Collection brand and built one website with a home for each business, so visitors can eat, climb, stay and shop in one place. Each venue has its own section, look and booking journey, all sitting under the Argia name.

Key Deliverables:
  • 🎨 The Argia Collection brand, with a consistent look across The Patch, The Pocket, Coastal Stays, The Italian Kitchen & The Shop
  • 🌐 One website with a hub homepage and its own section for each business
  • 🍷 The Patch: menus, table booking and a What’s On calendar for live music & DJ nights
  • 🧗 The Pocket: bouldering info, parties, NICAS Wild Climbers and class bookings, registers & memberships through ClassForKids
  • 🛍️ The Shop: WooCommerce store for Pocket clothing & climbing gear, taking payments through Stripe
  • 🏡 Coastal Stays: every holiday let in one place, from the rooms above The Patch to Appledore & Westward Ho!
  • 🍕 The Italian Kitchen: private dining enquiries
  • 🔗 thepatchbideford.com & pocketbideford.com pointed at the main site
  • 📧 Microsoft 365 email across all three domains, with an inbox for each venue
  • 🍪 Cookie consent, privacy policy, shop terms, delivery & returns pages
Tools & Platforms Used:

🔹The Results

The whole site is now live, with every Argia business under one roof online.

✅ One website for food, climbing, stays & shopping
✅ Tables, classes, parties & stays all a couple of clicks away
✅ Live music & events in one calendar
✅ An online shop taking orders for The Pocket

We continue to host and look after the site, run The Pocket’s ClassForKids setup and add new products, events and stays as the collection grows.
