I was rather taken with the pink striped hall which I thought you might like to see.
The rest of the hotel decor was rather more formal and it was a surprise to walk into this pink paradise.
I wondered what the wallpaper was but on closer inspection (as you do) I discovered the stripes were all painted - what a job that must have been for someone.
Two galleried landings with an atrium window at the top and pink corridors leading to the bedrooms.
And a door leading to the pretty gardens outside with wellington boots under the settle and a croquet set in a wooden chest. How heavenly to stay here (hint, hint, Mr. Bloom!).
The garden was not dissimilar to my own...maybe one day... sigh!
Lunches are taken in the conservatory - anyone for chess?
The front of the house.
All in all a wonderful afternoon - thank you dear friends!
And to finish on a pink note, some pretties that will be appearing in my next post (not that I like pink or anything!).
Awww thank you for that post as it has brought back happy memories. We stayed at the Pear Tree (Purton?) on our Wedding night. A wedding gift from the in-laws. We are celebrating our tenth wedding anniversary at the end of this year. but also we cannot afford to recapture our wedding day by staying there. But this came a close second.
ReplyDeleteThank you. (and the bedroom are wonderful too!)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great inspiration seeing those pink painted stripes. I want to file that back in my little pea brain...and hopefully pull it back out when it comes time to do a little redecorating around here. What a beautiful place.
