Tour Cozy Homes in the English Countryside

[@user-jk5um1om8l]

The second home is gorgeous. Unique and I can’t get enough of that stone and roof. So, so English.

[@user-jk5um1om8l]

The first home is an incredible store of antiques and history. This that and the other (and the home itself) is hundreds of years old !! Marvelous. She’s a pretty well known interior decorator in her own right and it’s fascinating to learn how she goes through the process of picking this or that for her home.

The second house is absolutely STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@LomaxYearwoodthethird]

Miss Pearl is so precious with the most gorgeous soulful eyes…love her taste…she is SUCH FUN…thank you for sharing with all of us. Hugs carolyn from Columbus Georgia

Loved all of the homes and the experience of being guided through hundreds of years of well-worn patina. The last host's tale about her husband getting testy with all of the semi-functional thrift-yard finds was hysterical!

[@katrussell6819]

All have marvelous things happening. So different. So great.

I adore Pearls home! I have two of her books and although her style is nothing I could pull off in my own home, I love it!

[@camuchanomellini903]

I love the happy entry music they play when starting to show the video 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@rogerpradier3238]

[@terrielee8622]

The third home was amazing and to be so large it felt really cozy! Love it!!!♥️

[@dianesorota838]

Loved Sue Jones' magical "barn" in the Cotswolds.

[@alimccally1]

My favourite!

[@lynnedanieli2537]

I agree about the 'David Austin' roses', they're the best Rose growers' 💯. Most of my roses are from this grower. 🌹 😁 🌹

[@RJ1234-d1s]

Beautiful homes!

[@AppealToHeaven]

Love the Cotswold barn! (Exorcism for the white witch housekeeper needed, methinks, but notwithstanding...just delightful!)

[@felicityjacobs9608]

I really love the third interior designer, poo. Her house is gorgeous. I just love the French touch and especially the lamp shades. Felicity Jacobs, Cape Town, South Africa

[@sandranaylor2348]

Lovely homes. Loved the black linen dress

[@DianeDavis-k5j]

I really like #2 lady and the very interesting home.

[@vovoliciousness]

All these houses are simply fabulous and so inspiring - lovely!

[@ernestmcgrayjr.1454]

I’m so in love with the converted Cotswold barn.

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

Stunning, truly. Thanks so much for raising the bar and featuring such well-informed, sensitively renovated and ravishingly beautiful homes. I really enjoyed this recap/compilation of some of my favourites.

[@jacq9527]

Absolutely beautiful & unique home, love Pearl 💕

[@TheFiown]

Just received my latest Cabana by Lesage plus the new book by Ben Pentreath and also Timothy Corrigans life in France ! I am spoilt (by myself) , love the peak into great homes.

[@debbiestott3651]

What a fantastic episode. Loved the first one then needed to do some jobs. In my house. X

[@sn00gums]

I love the dog beds out in the sun. Gorgeous home, gorgeous owner amd gorgeous dogs! ❤

[@DorothyMason-q8q]

I like still life art, rather than portraits, that way the eyes aren’t watching every move, as I go about my daily routine 🔮

[@sfloris9]

Absolute genius 😊

[@user-jk5um1om8l]

The first home at first seems a bit um … pre-modern (which it is) but it’s actually quite sophisticated from an antiquary’s point of view. All one of a kind items bought from auction. Wow!

[@elizabethhealey5609]

Your house is a beautiful I love the gorgeous view from out said, and the inside you have lot of charm in beauty tank you to sharing your home🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@marsery]

I loved the barn so much . Who is the lovely lady featured at the end of the video please?

[@user-jk5um1om8l]

“Almost died from smoke inhalation to be perfectly honest.” 😂😂 “The portraits … they are not my ancestors they are really not. … I’m trying to find portraits of people that are really ugly.” 🤣🤣🤣 Louise Jones is funny.

Where does all the money come from?

Hard work and success.

I will never understand the tables and ottomans covered with books.

[@dalecouch1995]

Like most conventions of decoration, this feature is an allusion. In this case it references the experience of men and women of letters. For so many of us, the stacks of books make a room not only cozy and warm, but also promising us the intellectual adventure that has been ours while nestled in fine old rooms and libraries. The overload of books is a Bohemian trope as well. Perhaps you do not like the 'clutter'. Just not your taste, perhaps. I bet you have good taste, and good taste can vary a lot. But the stacks of books on Ottomans are understandable and a motif shared by many. By the way, a room heavy with books creates a different sonic environment as well. I like the muffled soft tones of conversation in such a room, as opposed to the hard echo of a minimalist room with hard surfaces. The latter may not be my taste but can be very beautiful. With a little effort we can, indeed, understand taste that is different from our own. I responded because your comment sounded as if you were genuinely interested in knowing the basis for this frequent convention of decorating. I hope my comment is helpful. Again, I bet you have good taste, and I would likely enjoy your design decisions even if they are different from my own.

[@clairenoon4070]

You'll never understand people wanting to be surrounded by books?

[@marco5718]

@@dalecouch1995 What an interesting and thoughtful explanation. How generous of you to take the time.

[@grettalemabouchou6779]

Oh I know! It's because a lot of folks don't really like the telly much.....so we READ. The library of the past has been replaced by the t.v rooms of today sadly. And the many rainy days make for a time for tea and a good book.😊

[@CatskillsGrrl]

@@grettalemabouchou6779 and where exactly do you put your tea with the table covered in books? My multitude of books are on bookshelves. The clutter of the oh so artfully displayed Tom Ford coffee table book - that I sort of doubt anyone reads - drives me bonkers.

[@ratava6325]

Jacks just Ike mine, adorable but useless guard dogs, lick everybody or run away.

[@ABC-kt9ob]

The houses look beautiful and cosy but overloaded, cluttered. I wonder why don’t the landladies keep their books in big wall bookshelves rather than putting them on the coffee tables in the middle of the living room? It looks like they don’t have guests coz when they invite guests it’d be wise to have them seated at those coffee tables and have tea or coffee while chatting. The first house has too much wood and colourful fabrics. The second house is more stylish and looks more American rather than English with those big cost sofas but again too overloaded by the bunch of books on the table. And all that stuff in the middle of the living room: a gigantic statue, huge lamps and vases with flowers as well as hundreds of dishes, souvenirs gives an impression of an old luxurious hotel or museum than a house where people live in. And after all that comes the main question - who keeps all these houses, who does the housework, garden etc.? it is a lot of hard work which takes much time and energy…
