Happy place

Sometimes when I'm overwhelmed by work, exhausted and almost ready to burst into tired tears I go to my virtual happy place. Today (and for a very long time in fact) my happy place is this bathroom by Made by Cohen. You would have seen it before on the blog . You may have even saved it to your inspiration files. Now excuse me as I shut the door. I have a virtual bath to soak in.

Just a really sweet kitchen

Again, from the lovely Catlin Stothers. Complete with fourteen foot island.

A colourful beach house

Awash with sunshine and colour, white walls and floors. A casually chic family home with stunning sea views.

Who wants to join me for a winter weekend getaway?
