In at last!

Good grief, that was a bit of a struggle, we've managed to get just under 40 boxes into our little dwelling and negotiated some rather large items of furniture up the decidedly bijou staircase but we're in!! Finally, I've managed to get some photos taken of our cottage, I have to admit that it is not as tidy as it looks in the photo - the clutter and unpacked boxes are just out of view! Plus we haven't had a chance to hang any pictures yet. So here is a little mini tour - no pics of kitchen, bathroom or garden yet that's all a bit messy still.

Here is the sitting room, sorry I caught a bit of my thumb on the edge of this one!
Another view of the sitting room - recognise the cushion??
Here is the dining room:
Then upstairs to the main bedroom - I'm so glad we went for the fireplace in the end, it really adds something to the room.
And finally, the second bedroom:
Just a sneaky peak as it's not very tidy!

Well, that's it for now, thank you to all my followers for sticking with me in the eons it takes for me to get a post together just now!

  9. Hello Charlotte, your home is absolutely gorgeous! I have just found your blog and going to look through now. Your home should be profiled in "Country Homes & Interiors", a magazine I adore. Well done! I can't wait to see more photographs. The colour paint you have used in the lounge area is beautiful and I love the timber floors and fireplace. Kindest regards, Ann ~ Australia.
