I enjoyed it thoroughly. <br /><br />While Prince Charles has certainly done things in his personal life with which I don't agree, his devotion to historic preservation is a point where I will give him his props. <br /><br />In seeing this property, I was surprised at the size of the manor house, how small and truly cottagey it appears, but that impresses The Quintessential Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010105595059019883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-922760901705441583.post-69111346442493169202014-09-01T03:02:29.815-05:002014-09-01T03:02:29.815-05:00oh. that is "patina"!

They are really lovely and warm and much smaller inside than you would think. The decor above is perfect for them, so cosy and fresh! Some of the decor reminds me of Kathryn M Irelands - mainly the use of textiles. The cottages look old fashioned and modern at the same time - a perfect balance.<jlonithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08786212777760178771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-922760901705441583.post-23856485133713620682014-08-29T17:03:39.928-05:002014-08-29T17:03:39.928-05:00Such gorgeous English design!Such gorgeous English design!Charming Paris Apartmenthttp://rent-paris-apartment.weebly.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-922760901705441583.post-64325351876060137022014-08-28T19:01:35.669-05:002014-08-28T19:01:35.669-05:00Joni, SUPERB work as usual!

But I get a specific pleasure in reading about the royal family from a non British view because very few here would dare say obvious things about the high fee and the great gig that Camilla's sister has because it might endanger a future medals honor in the form of a MBE etc. People are very careful now in the press and only seem to write bland niceties.
