English Cottage Home Tour | English Country House Renovation & Christmas

[@sweetengland99]

Home sweet home. 🏠 A home like this reminds us what matters most: comfort, love, and a space where we can truly be ourselves. Just lovely! ☺

[@andreawhite2672]

You are quite talented to be in the midst of a reno and yet your home is so charming. Merry Christmas to you all!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you. We have always wanted our cottage to feel like home along every step of the renovation journey.

[@AndreaBrown-c8e]

Just love your home Louisa you have worked hard as a family to get this far in your renovation, I hope in 2025 you get your other little bits done you wanted to finish. It’s just the perfect cottage ❤❤❤, Merry Christmas to you and your lovely family 🎄🎄🎄 xxxx

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you so much! We have started planning for 2025 & we feel very excited about what's to come.

[@elainedreamies7380]

The house is lovely.

[@donnicebarham4888]

Your downstairs layout is perfect for empty nest and aging. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

It is! I have to keep reminding myself to go upstairs every day, otherwise I will develop bungalow legs 😂

[@Auntie7024]

Lovely tour, Louisa. Your cottage is coming along. You and Mark have done so much work. You may need a rest now. 😅 Best wishes for a very Merry Christmas and the happiest of New Years. I've so enjoyed all of your videos this year. ❤🌲

[@jeneferlofty4558]

Thank you for giving us a tour of your cottage! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! ❤️

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you. Happy New Year!

[@janemahan2663]

A bedroom next to the kitchen is a wonderful thing, so convenient to get up for a cup of tea in the night! Thank you Louisa for all your hard work on your videos, glad I found you this year. Merry Christmas.🌲

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

It is proving handier than I thought. Also having a toilet next to the bedroom is so much nicer than traipsing downstairs in the middle of the night.

[@juliebower4265]

Watched this again your home is already so beautiful. Our builders are back next week to start the roof of the extension can’t wait 😂 loving your vlogs so much thankyou and happy new year to you all. Rowan is her daddy’s double so gorgeous x x x ❤

Everything is in different stages of redo.. Good luck and I hope you and your family enjoy your holidays.. Love the videos

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

[@helenbailey8419]

The Christmas trees are lovely.Thank-you for filming your home.and garden.The Christmas items dotted around(a stocking hanging up in the sitting room was my favourite.The candles lit on the coffee table.The fires lit,the Aga roaring away.Maple conked out.Have a wonderful Christmas Eve meal,and a very well deserved Christmas.Best Wishes Helen🎄🎄

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you Helen. The Christmas stocking is a tapestry that my great auntie made for me as a Christmas present in 1984. She married an American just after the Second World War and went to live in America. I remember the excitement of receiving a Christmas present from her each year - American toys and books were always 'nicer' than anything we got in the UK at that time.

[@sallywinterbourn1780]

[@jonow8121]

Merry Christmas 🎄

[@chuffers77787]

Loved the Xmas tour, so cosy. I love your honesty in showing us everything but quite right not upstairs. In new year can you tell us date of cottage and a bit more history. Must have been very tiny when two separate homes! What will you do with the outdoor shower space and where is yr washing machine? Louisa don't take any notice of criticism because you know that family and husband must come first, you have so much joy in little things, and that's why I like watching your videos!

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

Thank you. Yes, all we unfold in the new year.

[@sunitashastry5270]

Merry Christmas! You have a home with a lot of potential. Looking forward to seeing how you will proceed with your plans.

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

[@alisonmckenzie1415]

Thanks for the tour Louisa, lovely light coming into your kitchen !😊🎄

[@elegantlyknackeredstyle]

The kitchen is wonderfully light and when the sky-lantern goes in as well we should be flooded with light, even on the greyest of days.

[@helenbailey8419]

Your door wreath is standing up well❤❤

The photo of your coat mid swirl at the beginning looks great.❤❤

[@susanraynor56]

The globe artichoke looks like it will keep going next year Louisa!

[@Lois-u1o]

I absolutely love that brick wall. I would never cut through it and make a window. In my opinion, that would be removing some of the beautiful charm!

[@vivienmcnaul109]

Love the blue glass jug in your cabinet ❤

[@SilviaFigueroa-n1o]

Brilliant! I can totally see the beauty in the midst of the renovation. It's cozy and you definitely succeeded in making it festive. Can't wait to see the finished product. Have a wonderful New Year.🎉
