    I do love mixing old and new but these spaces are perhaps a little too rustic for me. Still, these lovely earthy spaces are a delight to look at!

    Interesting spaces..some of them seem from another era - the darker lit ones and those with stark, white-washed walls (floorboards and chandelier). An interesting blend of styles.
