A little white Cotswolds cottage bathroom

Bathroom

Our current bathroom must be the smallest bathroom I’ve lived with so far. You need to close the door to open the airing cupboard door, but it’s functional nonetheless. And, did I mention pretty? Because pretty is one thing our bathroom most definitely is.

In true Cotswolds farm cottage style the bathroom fittings are very traditional. The porcelain is all by Burlington and the fittings are Bristan. Baileys Home and Garden do a similar 1930s three piece bathroom set which is gorgeous.

Since my last birthday (a bit of a milestone one) I have suddenly begun to love The White Company. I always liked them but was really into all sorts of colours and mixing things up. Since we stayed at Daylesford’s Honeysuckle cottage I have grown to love everything The White Company does . You see Honeysuckle was all Daylesford in the kitchen but the rest of the house was White Company. Lovely textures and cotton and linen in different shades of white. So this month I’ve slowly been replacing the bright towels we’ve collected over the years (really good ones I must add) and the IKEA bathmats and baskets, and slowly slowly it’s becoming a White Company bathroom.

Initially it was a bit of a shock. An all white and grey room. I love it. But can it be me? Absolutely I say – let the flowers be the colour!

    It’s absolutely perfect and so clean and fresh. So far the best bathroom I know you’ve ever had!!! I love that bathmat, I’ve bought something similar as my (future) bathroom will be all white.

      Yes! I noticed the bathmat on your Pinterest last night! The things I would change would be to paint the floorboards white instead of the seagrass – and put white tiles around the bath instead of glass. But it is all lovely and new and proper. Can’t wait to see your white bathroom.
