I don’t know about you, but my favourite interiors tend to reflect their setting – I’m not talking about anything overly themed or forced, but a few subtle elements that add a bit of local character and echo the environment outside. Nowhere have I seen this achieved more beautifully than at Cartshed Cottages, a quartet of self-catering hideaways in North Norfolk that my boyfriend and I recently . . .
Moody blues from Rowen & Wren
Blue is an interiors trend which seems to be everywhere at the moment, but it’s not one that I’ve been in any rush to embrace (I find it hard to tear myself away from my deep-rooted affinity towards grey!).

A beautifully styled bedroom
Before I head off for a much-needed weekend away from the computer screen, I wanted to share an image that’s inspired me this week.
