[@wahine101]

Honestly, this is the BEST series that AD have done. I am in LOVE with this series with Tan France and his partner.

[@BetsyPippen]

I am following this series RELIGIOUSLY

[@kgalvin7503]

Heck yeah

[@TP-pi2ge]

So do I!

[@devon314]

YES.

[@RadhikaVanjara]

No like SAME! ❤

[@GlamGoddes101]

I’m loving it

[@GregCoconut]

Nice to see people choosing to live outside of NYC and LA. It's a big beautiful world

[@word42069]

as if that’s a new concept

[@Ericks67]

Loving this AD series. Tan France is such a great host and has such exquisite taste in fashion and interior design.

[@jj-if6it]

I love Tan but the fake tudor style exterior is an eye sore

[@kuchen_]

@@jj-if6it … to you

[@jj-if6it]

@@kuchen_ yes that's what personal opinions are...

[@amooreperiod]

It’s lovely but impractical. There is no alternative seating to the bed at all to put on shoes/socks or just relax and check your devices and yet there seems to be room for it. Somewhere to unpack your bag as he suggested?! What about a desk/table?! You could cook a full meal but where would you eat it. For someone who spends a lot of time in hotel rooms, he sure seems to have not observed some obvious basic items they include.

[@Rrjenx02]

I was thinking the same thing! You don’t want to have your tea in the bed! 😊 Maybe a small sofa or two comfy chairs with a table. I wonder if they didn’t have time to get all the pieces before filming.

[@gmgilewski]

I said the same above. I think it was a time issue. I really hope they add a bench at the foot of the bed. And then a table w/ chairs 2- in order to relax, read, drink tea and eat that full dinner TAN said he could cook in that kitchenette! Lol I think time was issue. Hoping!? 🤞

[@1973or35]

Agreed...It's 75% there. It needs a bench at the foot of the bed and either a desk or bistro table with chairs.

[@jj-if6it]

Yes it needs a desk for sure!

[@simplypotter7895]

Agreed! Where’s the microwave and convenient plugs for my electronics??

[@WildWest144]

Where is the comfy chair for your guests to relax and read a book in the guest house? And how about an upholstered bench at the end of the bed? This guest house could be so much more. Love the bathroom though.

[@HomeWorkouts_LS]

Yeah very weird that they get a whole kitchen but no chairs or stools 😅

[@nellsmith7064]

Or a table/desk and won’t Gigi be wanting a full length mirror?

[@sarana77]

Bobby would have remembered that ;)

[@sleeping9814]

yeah, exactly

[@shannon5203]

I came to the comments to say this exact thing. If they decided against it, it would have been cool for them to explain that.

[@lulukrassova2196]

Bathroom is ace, but I am always a little disappointed when a vaulted ceiling is very plain. The furniture, especially the bed, seems too small for the size of the room. Maybe if they had a footer at the end of the bed or somewhere to lounge. But the colour story is lovely and the look of joy on his face is class.

[@Soulbloom1]

Agreed. I love the cozy look overall, but why is that wardrobe smashed into the corner, and why no sofa at the end of the bed, or chairs? There's plenty of room. Won't the guests want a place to sit, drink their coffee and whatever they make on the hob? Something's not fitting here.

[@ALFalahSquad]

Yeah. There is an Issue with size and proportion

[@user-so9gx2nq5w]

Needs a bistro table with two chairs in front of the kitchenette, white painted wroth iron. Vintage luggage rack and occasional chair with side table are also necessary.

[@klaaskingma7435]

My guess is they’re still adding to it. Usually they don’t get everything bought at once

[@1paradox]

This is my favorite room in their house so far in this series! I'm surprised there's no accent chair or additional seating with a drinks table, but perhaps it'll be added on later or maybe it's on the 1st floor of the cottage? Also, no custom luggage rack/table?

[@TubeTorte]

My thoughts exactly. Why stress having a kitchenette (with a dishwasher!) without anyplace but the bed to sit to eat or drink? Not even one chair! Very odd & awkward. And if his friends come with a massive suitcase, where do the clothes go...in that small wardrobe? Or do they stay in the suitcase ...ON the floor?? There needs to be more plush bedding; not a skimpy piece at the foot of the bed. I would have skimped on the kitchenette and added a fire feature of some kind to cozy it up. Which would, of course, then require a couch, chair, ottoman....something!

[@kuchen_]

@@TubeTorte Tan has addressed this and said the chairs haven’t arrived yet

[@Beardlybeloved]

Really beautiful space and elements but something seems off in the finishing. I wish there were more architectural features in the main area…crown moulding or beams in the ceiling. Something to make it actually cozy.

[@QuestMieke]

It is lovely to see the guest cottage come to life, I would add a little seating area though, other than this, it’s stunning 🤍✨

[@Grace-st6id]

Loving this series! Love all the color and fun but always disappointed in the styling choices at the end.. why no lounge chairs or chaise near the big window? The wardrobe is shoved in the corner, the bedding looks thin etc etc. It just doesn’t seem finished. Still loving the series though! Just need help with the finishing touches

[@smitanambiar6418]

It is absolutely beautiful! Looks like there is a downstairs was well? Is there a tour? You just need to add: A bench at the end of the bed for suitcase A nice comfy armchair or two seater sofa A small table with two chairs especially if guests decide to cook something. Remove the sideboard to fit it in

[@elizabethharttley4073]

That bathroom is rich and practical and gorgeous. The room isn't done yet. A table and chair with a lamp. Maybe a bench or loveseat and end foot of the bed please. ❤

[@mariaferguson2224]

Tan is so sweet and kind. It is uplifting to know there are people like him in the world. 😘

[@ariella4183]

The Fox Group is about to be reaaaaalllyyyy busy! 😊

[@wahine101]

I have to agree with the other comments - where is the seating area? The cozy chair and foot rest? The place to eat your sandwich or open your laptop?

[@christinecoe1827]

Needs a place to sit other than bed. Maybe a small table or desk. A loveseat with coffee table? Or two upholstered chairs and table. If you have a kitchen, where do they sit?

[@ivyfacio4007]

That bathroom color is STUNNING 😍

[@1paradox]

Agreed! I feel like it's a gorgeous aubergine hue.

[@TubeTorte]

Wondered why no one called it aubergine. It's the only name for it!

[@jj-if6it]

@@TubeTorte Aubergine has more blue in it

[@amakeupjourney]

It’s oxblood not aubergine

[@victorweber9670]

I'm LOVING this series só much! Waiting anxiously for every episode to come

[@noodleMoodle253]

This is the best series AD have ever done ! It’s been so fun !

[@nimishad4550]

Love this series, especially Tan, the design choices, and the location is breathtaking. Love the room by room video can’t wait to see the final walkthrough.

[@arancha655]

I love this series showing each part of the house!

[@Tina-tz2cl]

the subway tile is EVERYTHING! and those bedside tables... I would feel so inspired in this space

[@RenatoMagno-eq1bj]

i love all of Tan's shows and this is the best one yet! its so personal and inspiring...

[@madelineo]

Obsessed with Tan and this series. I want to see every single room! Then I went to see a series in this style where he works with y'all to build or transform other people's spaces!

[@thebjh4726]

I love the guest space and look forward to seeing it when all the furniture (table and chairs) has arrived. The colors and tiles in the bathroom are gorgeous. My one critique point: In addition to the mounted showerhead, I would also like to have a handheld one. Bravo!

[@spoileddolllife8057]

ABSOLUTELY JAW DROPPING BEAUTIFUL

[@sneharoy009]

This entire series is perfection! Chef’s kiss 🤌🏼

[@amreenazam9013]

Stunning, stunning and such a lovely human to want to look after his guests so much ❤

[@Lisafremonte]

hope you continue this series. I absolutely enjoy it

[@KatjeKat86]

As they talked about a seating area during the initial walk through my assumption is either the furniture came in damaged or it's back ordered and will probably be in the finished product but they couldn't wait to film this for that to happen.

[@claudiamann7111]

What happened to the place for the luggage?? You also need a comfortable chair for reading. The bathroom is amazing. Love the colors.

[@anitabarker4604]

I love your approach, you remind us of the simple things that bring joy 🇦🇺❤️

[@beautyallaroundme724]

Very nice. My favorite parts are the beautiful kitchenette (love it!), the windows, the maroon shower tiles, and the view.

[@SerenaaAlice]

I've been waaaaiiiiting for this episode!

[@zarinahsales769]

I hope that room has a comfy sofa and reading corner too ! It is a large room .

[@hellenhighwater2024]

I agree that there's room for a little more furnishing in this space, but overall it's such a gorgeous gift to his guests to have a space like this. It'll evolve with time, I'm sure!

[@RenatoMagno-eq1bj]

although i am kind of bothered with the pillows on the bed it feels it can use another layer of pillows -smaller ones and in different color to complete the look...i mean they were going for cozy modern cottage and pillows equates to cozy

[@weirdinagoodway19]

Yay, you! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@BeatingHeartland]

I wanted to love it. The bathroom is on a totally different level...but the main area is asking for more.

[@jj-if6it]

Agree, it looks dated

[@nath4n1el]

LOVE this show!! Im obsessed!

[@maddyf.9901]

So happy for Tan. I can't wait to see more.

[@chulscapetillo]

Tan’s attention to detail is impressive.

[@heidiw5893]

Gorgeous, love watching this one!

[@Cstylinn]

Beautiful. However, kitchenette with no place to sit to have your tea and toast, no chair to snuggle and read a book 😢 plus, guests might not need the washer/dryer but your housekeeper is going to hate having to bring to other house or run up and down the stairs if you end up putting in garage.

[@TheOneAndOnlyRRR]

Aesthetically, BEAUTIFUL! Considering this was a custom space, the fact that they didn’t include a seating area of any sort is a bit of a fail. Fix a pot of tea and a snack and sit on the bed?? Not even a bench to sit on while getting ready or to place your luggage while unpacking.

[@deepthir503]

Congratulations Tan 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 💖 💓 . It's gorgeous 😍 ❤️ 💕 💖 ✨️ ♥️.

[@viveklouwer1663]

The best one YET

[@9catlover]

oh Gawd WHY am i watching a whole series of Tan France decking out his fancy house

[@haleyy_pris]

best series on AD

[@pjmackall]

I love to take an Epsom salt bath and relax when I am traveling. I’m always so sore. I’d reconsider the tub.

[@jj-if6it]

There was room for one too

[@leticiaamorim2739]

❤❤❤ missing the bench in front of the bed to open the suitcase!

[@leoprg5330]

Great job! This makes me want to paint something oxblood color in my own house

[@diegomarroquin7921]

Best series ever 🤯

[@Nicke153]

Beautiful 🌸

[@pilarona68]

Un absoluto acierto en cuanto a materiales y colores. Una pena no haber hecho una casa de invitados a la altura de esa casa, con un salón pequeño separado de la habitación en el que estuviera esa maravillosa cocina , una mesa, unas sillas , un sofá, una tv. Creo que los invitados van a depender mucho de la casa grande precisamente en lo que se necesita más independencia; al final del día uno ve un poco sus series o programas favoritos o lee un libro. Teniendo dos niños te apetecerá a esas horas tumbarte en tu sofá y no tener al invitado ahí porque en su sitio no tiene un lugar donde ver tv. Si son amigos mal, pero si son los suegros o gente mayor mucho peor no tener su propio sitio. Imagino que habrá sido por necesidades de espacio pero bien se hubiera quitado algo de espacio en la casa grande.

[@jj-if6it]

Love the rug

[@RohunRajaram]

It would have also been so stunning to see the kitchen alcove framed with some integrated lighting, it would have made it that much more a statement and more like a piece of furniture. The maybe slab gets a bit lost with the wallpaper.

[@miekesmit7012]

Its very classically English. And that eith the opportunity to do something new! Did not predict Tan would choose this style

[@keciacotton4895]

Magnificent!!!!

[@ljlou5746]

Hopefully they added a bistro table & chairs with a bench the same length of the bed at the end of the bed. I wished the green on the kitchenette worked better with the dark olive headboard. But he likes it.

[@moonbeeps]

I love the space but I think the green clashes, specially the bed and the mint green.

[@kimvanderlaan4120]

I wonder what the downstairs of the cottage looks like?

[@glucosina]

My thoughts also…. What’s down stairs that needs to cram everything upstairs?

[@kristinapreedy7069]

I was wondering that too but thinking it might be the pool cabana?? Hopefully we’ll find out in a future episode!

[@user-dy6cn3ov2b]

What is that paint on the millwork?? Would love to know the shade, it's beautiful.🙏

[@marvinraphaelmonfort8289]

rojo is red, that tile's more oxblood

[@giulitorelli]

I would have loved a great bathtub! I am a sucker for baths!😊

[@moniquevanloon4526]

Does anyone know the exact brand / paint color used in the bathroom, the one on the walls? It's GORGEOUS!

[@katharinab.r1172]

Shoutout to the drone operator! 🙌 nice shots

[@c.o3301]

In a guest house of that calibre I’m surprised they didn’t allocate space for a bath. If you’re on holiday as such the option to relax in a bath is very nice

[@amt2553]

Anyone have any info on that bed ??? Oh and linens ? Thx

[@KevinCoviella]

So many Tan France videos, AD.

[@fwend555]

What does the first floor of the cottage look like????? We must see! 😍

[@brightgreenleaves]

Is it just me… why does the bedding look unfinished?? It’s too much open empty space. Don’t get me wrong. I move in. Lol but just saying if I’m nitpicking.

[@jeanakrasowski4495]

Windows on each side of the bed would have been better than one behind the headboard. Also, where is the spot he wanted for luggage?

[@hotpink5635]

Does anyone know the color of the bathroom? I’m absolutely obsessed!

[@ajohonly3721]

Love Tan ❤

[@czmacaulayturner7285]

Obsessed.

[@ChanningWearsSunscreen]

OBSSESSSEDDD. That jacket doe

[@phunk8607]

Antoni's shirtless... that was the best surprise cameo

[@courtyard1972]

It was nice, but unfinished - where is the seating area and coffee table arrangement? Where is the luggage rack etc.

[@fionahislop2889]

Perfect but where is a comfy chair to lounge in and admire the beauty?

[@austinpongpit9382]

“I’ve been waiting for you Patrick!!!”

[@na0228]

Can you please share the mint green paint color of the cabinet?

Nice but missing a desk by the window, a lounge chair in the corner, ottoman at the end of the bed AND A TEA KETTLE

[@susanbrowell9925]

What an exquisite space! I love that the main room is calm and relaxing but the bathroom is dark and dramatic.

[@AmmaLove24]

What is the color of the cabinets? Anyone know?

[@lisacraze1]

It's gorgeous! But what happened to downstairs? Wasn't that a living room? What happened?

[@margaretjackson498]

Where is the seating area in the cottage. You need a big comfy couch and chair. Where is the TV

[@pjg6019]

Is there no place to sit? Where do the guests drink their coffee?

[@margaret-annfoster5848]

Just wondering where do you sit, eat, or drink that tea etc🤷💭

[@sdvinteriors_designstudio]

Needs a lounge suite for sitting in the guest house/bedroom area

[@AlphaLoveFree]

It's great - except you should have a café table and two chairs in the space - why have a kitchenette without someplace to eat and drink in the room?

[@crystalclinger3485]

All it needs is a chair and small table you can pull up for your laptop! Gorg, gorg, gorg

[@EvasNan2020]

Beautiful but missing the space for the suitcase to be placed😉
