The room with the lock on!!

In my last blog I did say I was off to Sidmouth, camera in hand I have taken a few photos of this lovely Regency town by the sea, but as always when you want to take a lovely shot of the architecture, they are covered in scaffolding!!
 Great views as you drive down to Sidmouth




Now another peep around my home,


our bathroom we inherited but I hope I have put a few of my own touches to it, I will change the paintwork at sometime, but I don't think it is too bad, the bath is lovely and so deep, and as for the view - lovely on a summers day with the windows wide open.



 These jars I bought at the Country Living Fair last year, great for my lipsticks and brushes! I think the stall was Velvet Ribbon
 A really good view while cleaning your teeth!
Soap bought from St Remy in Provence

and this basket from a market in Normandy

Some of you have now got snow, but guess what ours dissappeared yesterday, although we went for a walk on Exmoor and it is still covered in snow and very icy, although I think we were the only people up there walking, didn't stay too long, and needed a drink in the pub to revive afterwards. Sorry forgot camera so no photos of Exmoor - promise I will take it with me next time.
Choice tomorrow do I go to the Rag Sale or an Auction in Exeter, decisions, decisions. 
Love reading your comments and sorry if I haven't visited you recently promise I will do very soon, not to myself must do better!!

  5. Hi Jill,

    Sidmouth looks like the sort of seaside resort I enjoy visiting. You had lovely weather!

    I booked two extra days in Brighton today. We will go there before we stay at Pippa's. Please let me know if you have some tips about places to go to!

    Your bathroom looks beautiful Jill. I wish mine looked as pretty. I do have the CK towel though :-)

    Happy new week!

  16. How lovely to be able to lie in the bath and look out through an open (unfrosted) window - not many people are able to do that. Looking forward to seeing what you buy at the Rag Sale or auction.

  19. Your bathroom is gorgeous Jill, you are lucky to have inherited such good taste from the previous owners - not always the case though in my experience!

    I love the pretty oil painting above the bath.

    Do you find those baths take a long time to fill? A friend of mine regrets putting one in her house and never uses it - but has a shower instead!

    Any more snow since Sunday?

  21. Hello Jill,

    Thank you for your lovely comment. I'm glad you did comment as now I have also found your lovely blog! You have some stunning photos and a lovely home.
    I moved away from Yorkshire at the end of last year, so no the fabric wasn't sent to me.
