I’m back with another Inigo beauty, again no castle this week because I spent the entire day yesterday shopping for plants, planting the plants and panicking about all things I need to do for an upcoming photoshoot of my house for a blog that is older (and way more “big time”) than this one. Eeeeeekkkkkkk!!!!
This elegant, wisteria-covered mid-16th century house sits in the centre of the pretty town of Colyton, close to south Devon’s beautiful coastline. Unfolding over 4,000 sq ft and surrounded by walled gardens, the Grade II*-listed Elizabethan house has been restored and decorated by the current owners (interiors writer Ros Byam Shaw). Unique original features have been preserved, such as oak panelling dating to c.1600, leaded windows, and flagstone floors. Contemporary interventions are timeless, including Colefax and Fowler wallpaper, and various Farrow and Ball colours. Its garden is complete with a swimming pool, a summer house, a small orchard stocked with mulberry, cherries and apples, and raised vegetable patches. A quiet and private oasis, the garden has views across the town, over hills and mature trees, and feels remarkably rural given its central location.

It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. 320 Rokeby by Rezen.

Studio Johnston Head of Interiors and Project Director, Stefania Reynolds, ingeniously revamped this city-fringe apartment using a Mediterranean color scheme and clever spatial changes. Removing a kitchen column expanded the area and created a seamless overlapping layout. Two key adjustments maximized functionality: closing one end of the galley kitchen to create a separate home office and adding a storage unit with sliding doors. The dining area features custom-designed furniture and softening geometric lines with curved joinery and plush seating, all adorned in rich, earthy tones.
