Take A Look Around Our ENGLISH COUNTRY GARDEN!

[@mallymakings2853]

I don’t care that I may sound soppy, but I genuinely had a lump in my throat of complete and utter happiness for you both. I’ve enjoyed your videos for a number of years, I’ve watched you “grow” and become this strong, beautiful, inspiring woman with many important messages to share. To see you in your dream home is a joy in itself. I know you’re incredibly grateful for everything you have but Darling, it’s YOU and Alex that has made this happen. Your hard work and dedication is paying off. I’m just so happy that I’m here to see you enjoying life. I Love You both. xxx

This is one of the sweetest comments ever! Thank you so much for being so lovely and supportive and kind! This comment has honestly made my day, my week! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@samirapoffo4083]

We can see that the whole family is so happy in the new house, but Roxie is especially cute in this video! Just want to pet her so much!

[@angieserdar]

Was just going to say how adorable she is 🥰🙏🏼👏🏼

[@stephrashid6513]

I was thinking the same thing. She's the most beautiful dog 😍

[@susanbrown2909]

Yeah

[@lomalinke5042]

Isn't anyone going to comment on how HUGE this place is? The house! The garden! I was shocked when M. opened the little gate and ANOTHER garden popped up. SO happy for them! Just bought the cook book. Highly recommend it. Beautifully photographed. Great recipes. Lovely people. Lots of love from Majorca.

[@gingersal8052]

Me too I gasped when she opened the gate, I thought it was the neighbor's garden. Such a lovely place!

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thank you so much! So happy you love my cookbook! The wide angle lens definitely makes it look a little bigger but we are so so lucky for this incredible garden!

[@susefink6099]

[@taniamarchand689]

The garden is simple but so naturally beautiful. Being able to grow you own veg is such a treat.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Such a treat! Can’t wait to get stuck in!

[@devonmunro6278]

This garden is GORGEOUS! The thought of drinking a nice cup of tea in the morning in my PJS and slippers out there... !!!!! Really happy for you.

[@OMGitsaClaire]

A suggestion for a paint color for the north facing guest bedroom (if you can find it in the UK): Ibis White by Sherwin Williams. I painted my bedroom in my family home that color years ago (which is also a north facing bedroom) and it just makes the room look illuminated with a soft glow. It’s a white with very subtle peachy undertones and it almost looks like white walls being kissed by the light of the golden hour all the time. I think it’s a great warm white to use in spaces that need a little dose of sunshine.

[@ElsaField]

Your rare flowers are snakeshead fritillaries! They are an non-native plant but naturalised, and nationally rare.

[@evaschubert-litz5401]

The purple flowers at 10:47 are called 'Schachbrettblume' in German which translates to 'chessboard flower' 🙂

[@juliaa.9870]

And the blue ones are ‚Traubenhyacinthen‘ or ‚grape hyacinths‘.

[@debraconway1011]

In English the purple flowers are called Fritillaria.

[@theautisticacademic5927]

Snake head fritillary in English :)

[@xTheGoddessOfChaosx]

In Dutch/Flemish it's called blauwe regen = Blue Rain :)

[@LoveLeeMeJenny]

In Swedish the tiny blue ones are Pärlhyacint, which would translate to Pearl hyacinth, and the second bell shaped ones are Kungsängslilja, which would be something like Lily of the king's meadow. And I think the wall climbing one is a Blåregn, Blue rain. Love those! 😊

[@jllhsm]

The flowers are grape hyacinths and snakehead fritillary. Love love love your garden and new home!! So happy for you!

[@flibbertygibbette]

For the TV, why not mount the TV on an arm on the wall? You can tuck it back against the wall where it is when you aren't watching it, and when you want to watch it, pull it out. Then it also doesn't dominate the room. A friend did this in a similar space and it worked great. There are some great wall mounts that extend out securely and then fold back flush against the wall.

[@musicalfish8]

Would you consider removing the door from the living room? I don't imagine you would ever have it closed off and you do have to work around it slightly with the furniture. I personally think that there will be plenty of room above the fireplace for the TV after it is opened up. Seems like the best placement for it as well. Excited for when renovations start! Absolutely beautiful already.

[@darlaemberton9349]

Yes! I was going to say this. I think they could take the door off then have room in that corner to angle the chair there.

[@annehinchliffe7794]

I was also wondering if it could swing into the hall, if it is necessary to keep a door on there.

[@lorrainefoley4542]

Hi purple i think are muscari and others are snakes head fritillaries . All beautiful . May you have many years growing in your new garden and home

[@Susan-qg9tm]

It is a lovely room, but perhaps it is just too small for all 3 pieces. I would try moving the chair to another room. You might then be able to accommodate an additional ottoman, or a small backless bench under the window, or another smaller alternative for additional seating if you feel you need it.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Yeah definitely I think it’s too much for the room!

[@Britbabe53]

@@MadeleineOlivia maybe an L-Shape would be better?

[@jaymac-uu8vt]

@@MadeleineOlivia Maybe put one up in the dressing room?

[@hazelmooney9065]

Holy moly could this house get any better!? Having all those veg beds! Wow. Maddie you have made me dream even bigger! I am SO enjoying all the house content. Its so refreshing to see a youtuber who is so truly appreciative of everything they have and I cant wait to see you and Alex thrive in this home xxx

[@mdkinfrance]

My husband the gardener says that you have a honeysuckle growing on that trellis! That will smell delightful when it's in bloom!

[@margaretorden7568]

I would suggest drawing up a 1:20 scale plan and making cutouts of the furniture. You can arrange these before moving the actual furniture. The house and garden are lovely by the way.

[@maryohare4141]

Do a flat tv inside a thin cabinet above fireplace with a rough hewn mantel above fireplace. You could take off entrance door to livingroom so you get 3 ft more of wall space, where you could put a bookcase or a chair or table with soft lighting.

[@lucylovegood62442]

My parents cover their veg beds with fishing nets that have washed up on the beaches over the years. Worth keeping an ear out for that kind of thing after a big storm! Can drape the nets over a frame when things are growing & with empty beds, even just having the net flat to the earth deters cats because they can't dig around without getting tangled! (just to clarify, we've never actually had anything get stuck!)

[@harleeyork7698]

You are glowing and thriving! You look so happy it’s so nice to see 🥰❤️

[@Wallacer]

I’m in a double fronted cottage in West Cornwall. I would not swap it for anything. The garden is my favourite place, stuff grows crazy here, out of every nook and cranny! Definitely take the year to watch what grows, see what you’ve got. I appreciate my surroundings every single day, looks like you have found a really special place there. X

[@denisecarter5117]

Love love your patio and garden. And your house.ha And the wisteria is great with no leaves. And the green paint on the window. Grape Hyacinth is what we call the little purple flowers. I of course love the garden beds. You seem so much more cheerful after a depressing winter and year. Love your home.

[@skybaby203]

It’s so nice to see the new garden, it looks gorgeous! The beautiful pinky mauve checkered bulbs are Fritillaria meleagris or Snakes Head fritillary and they are endangered in lots of the EU and the lovely bluish purple ones are Muscari or Grape hyacinths! So pleased for you both on your move, finally, and I wish you so much happiness in your new home, it’s lovely! 🤗

[@georgiavanzaanen]

For the living room you should try putting the single chairs either side of the fire place and the sofa facing it. It’s then more of a conversational room where you can sit and face one another

[@jamiecee4960]

Those rare flowers you was showing. Looks like Bell Flowers of some kind. Love your new home yawn. And your big garden. So Beautiful. Love the Swing.

[@KALB96]

That eyeshadow on you is just 😍

[@joannapetke3881]

Why don't you buy a TV holder that moves around, then put your TV on the wall next to the window. When you want to watch it, just pull your TV and adjust the angle :)

[@gruschls]

Just thought the same 😊

[@gill2292]

Yes was thinking that too!

[@Zzzoomin]

I was thinking the same after I saw another KZbinr who had a tv on wheels in her bedroom and she just kept it in her closet when not used, brilliant! 😊

[@embracingranola]

@@Zzzoomin I love having a tv on wheels or sliders! It helps you set up the room with a fireplace or conversation as the focus but can add the tv when you want to watch it.

[@nancyparmelee4161]

You can get the wall bracket where you can pivot the tv on an angle when you want to watch it.

[@ehpeachylove]

Madeline your make up is very pretty today, you guys are doing a really nice job and getting your new home outfit together and you got a love your back garden it looks like such a beautiful place. I am so very happy for both of you.

You can feel the love that was spent that made that garden what your living with today! How amazing. Those mature shrubs are divine.

[@cantocant2346]

The rooms are so, so beautiful. The music is lovely. Thank you for such a calm, happy vibe. Roxie is my favorite.

[@linzertube]

Did you try the tv on a bench/console or dresser to the right of the doorway? There, it would not dominate the room but still be as comfortable to view from the couches. You could keep the couches and big chair/s against the walls, for a conversation spot, with the fireplace as the focal point. In the evening, you could be lying down on your couches and chair/s for tv viewing. How about building a small 2x3 sand bed for the cats to pee and poo in, and place it just on this side of the fence so the cat won’t even bother to go to the veg beds? The garden is so lovely and seems to go on forever. The growing beds are awesome, too. I like your configuration for the patio furniture.

[@shireenriazikermani1894]

I think I would put the TV on the small wall that the single chair is in front of by the door and then move the chair over in the corner by the bookcase where you have the TV on the floor. Good luck! 🏡

[@clilylilyrose87]

That garden is to die for! I love the sofa and arm chairs but think it is too big for the living room, so I would start afresh and get a new set :)

Congrats on the beautiful house and garden. I've used chicken wire on the garden bed (bury it down about 1/2 inch and then put seeds or starts through the holes. Cats don't like digging and getting their claws stuck in the wire. They also sell stuff specifically for this, but it doesn't always help in veg gardens.

[@SuzyHiggins1993]

Put the tv on the right hand wall next to the fire place on a pivoting wall mount. That way you can angle it anyway you want

[@hattekid]

Tips for the livingroom window! If you want a temporary cheap and very pretty solution, check Ikea. They have something called SCHOTTIS, it workds wonders! And you can cut it and adjust it to your needs. I really love them.

[@hopeisthething]

The purple flowers are muscari aka grape hyacinths, the checkered ones are fritillaria meleagris. Powdered cinnamon or cayenne pepper sprinkled around perimeter are supposed to help deter animals from wanting to dig in certain areas. Just have to reapply occasionally.

[@christinebrush4399]

I am so glad you are happy. I hope you won't cut the vines off your house. Its going to look lovely when they leaf out and bloom.. When my husband of 52 years died I had to sell our little place in the woods. It sold quickly (sadly) because it had beautiful vines on the sides and looked like a fairy house in the woods. ( moved from Britain to Canada in 1967) I later learned that the parents of the people suggested getting rid of the vines. The after pictures of our beautiful small home we called the cottage are terrible...just a house now. I wish you many, many lovely years together. Blessings. Christine.

[@zanbudd]

I love wisteria also- your garden is lovely!

[@barrbuff]

We have same problem with cats and raised beds. If chicken wire on the gait doesn't work, I suggest making a more attractive place for the cat to go wherever you deem is a good spot. Rough up the soil in that spot to make it inviting and easy to dig, perhaps put some sand there or loose mulch. They like the raised beds because it's easy to dig in with the loose dirt. Love the new place and especially the outdoor part of it.
