This giveaway has now closed. Congratulations to the winner, Kate Parsons, and thanks to everyone who took part! I always find that beds in luxury hotels feel a little bit more special than my bed at home: the linen is a tad crisper, the duvet softer, the mattress a touch more comfortable... If you agree then you'll like my latest competition, as I've teamed up with House of Fraser to give away . . .
Home tour | A light-filled extension in London
I love seeing how period properties can be adapted through clever design, evolving to suit modern lifestyles without losing any of their character or charm. This wonderful example comes from jewellery designer Sally Vanderpump, who has transformed the ground floor of her Edwardian house with a contemporary extension that's flooded with natural light.

This is a paid partnership with Nest, but all words and opinions are my own As I’ve grown older, I’ve begun to appreciate the importance of investing in good design; I’d far rather save up for a classic piece that I’ll enjoy every day for years to come, than rush into buying cheaper items which won’t stand the test of time.

A weekend afloat on a London houseboat
I've always fancied embarking on a canal holiday - pootling along with a glass of wine in hand, watching the world drift slowly by.

![[AD - press stay] We had a wonderful couple of days at @treehouse.retreats on the Cowdray Estate in the South Downs National Park earlier this week. There's always something special about staying in a beautifully designed woodland hideaway, but particularly so during this autumn-winter cusp when the weather can change from golden sunshine to magical snow flurries and back again.
