Inside Liz Earle’s stunning country pile in the West Country
We're only a teeny bit jealous!

Nothing pretties up a plain wooden dining table quite like a few vases of fresh flowers. The staggered height of the trio of vases is a nice touch, and the centre display seems to perfectly match the floral design of the curtains in the background.
She's a fan of creative canopies

Shade and style – this covered floral walkway ticks both of these boxes. We can't think of a more serene way to take a walk up to this rustic country home.

A blue-green front door with tall potted topiary on either side is a classic winning combination when it comes to a country-style entranceway. We're also fans of the contrast between the slatted door on the bottom half and the boxed window on the top half.
She's a fan of upcycling

We can't get enough of this unique garden bench made up of a log and some disused dining table backs. Definitely something that will leave guests impressed.

Period-style panelling on the bathroom wall helps to draw walls in and create a cosy ambience. Add in a healthy smattering of lit pillar candles and some heritage chrome bath taps and you've got the perfect ingredients for a style-conscious soak.

What could be more calm-inducing than spending an evening in front of a roaring fire – and what looks like an original one at that – complete with an ornate metal grate? The burnt orange ottoman doubles up as the perfect place to put your feet up.
