Modern English country house

This is a lovely modern English country house full of natural materials and soft and muted tones.

St Francis is a guest house located in Hemingford Grey, a pretty village in Cambridgeshire; an hour from London’s Kings Cross and 16 miles from Cambridge. Formerly a religious retreat, St Francis House has been tastefully converted into a light and spacious location which is full of unique and inspiring props sourced by the owner Anna McDougall. Anna styled for leading interior magazines before opening Maiden, a successful interior lifestyle shop in London’s Primrose Hill.

English country style interiors

Quintessentially English country style interiors

An ancient hostelry in the Cotswolds blends the cosy and the stylish in perfect proportions. Smartly rustic, with its fireplaces, exposed white washed beams and wooden panelling, wooden floors, full of character and ambiance.

The Lion Inn started life as a coaching inn in the 15th Century.  Over the years it has gone through many changes and played an important role in the village and surrounding areas; providing food, drink and accommodation for both people and horses, in a variety of guises.  Having fallen in love with the building, Annie Fox-Hamilton took over ownership of the Lion in October 2011 and spent six months on a major renovation of the building and grounds, determined not to lose any of the inn’s original quirky charm.
