When I saw BritMums asking what your home says about you, I started to wonder. Last summer we moved into a beautiful grade 2 listed house (yep, that one in the photo above). It is a former stable block of a country house and sits in 220 acres of amazing grounds. I adore my house and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world to live here. It is not about the glamour for me, it is about the comfort and practicality of our family living here whilst feeling relaxed and content.
BritMums have teamed up with Victoria Plumb, the quality bathroom retailer to ask what the Great British Home looks like and of course the answer is different for everyone, but after a good ponder and walk around my house, I have come to the conclusion that for me the Great British Home is about -
Basically at the crux of it, my home is all about ensuring that my family are happy and able to relax and kick off the pressures of the world. I aim to make it a sanctuary, a place where people want to spend time.
As I said before, homes are a really unique thing, so now I'm wondering what does home say to you? How have you managed to turn your house into a home and make it somewhere you want to spend time?
