    Thumbs up House tour of an English Country Cottage

    I loved this place, it's called A Place of Her Own, there are pictures of each room at the bottom of the page. Yup, I could picture this as my little hideaway!!

    It's gorgeous! I'm afraid if I lived there I wouldn't get anything done. I would just move from room to room admiring the beauty.

    It's such a sweet place of her own. I'd love someplace like that for just me.

    All I could say was "wow" too, the kitchen and living space in that house are virtually the same as mine!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it!

    Despite the fact that the exterior of the house is totally different as my house is stone built the interior was pretty similar. I loved the other rooms too but I have less stuff in my bedroom - I have enough difficulty sleeping as it is without other things to spend my time looking at!

    I live on the edge of a town so there are hills and farms all around so I feel justified in having my english country cottage look. Everyone always comments on hw different it is for someone as young as me (?!) to have such a traditional look as the main fashion is to have a "minimal" look which I hate.

    Makes me yearn for a place of my very own too.
