In our September issue, we invite you to take a moment to pause and indulge in a cosy exploration of the bedroom – the ultimate sanctuary of any home. Celia Rufey charts the fascinating history of bedding, while Vivienne Ayers uncovers the enduring bed trends that continue to captivate us today.
Our four house tours are what dreams are made of, from a Georgian-era Scottish family home with echoes of The Secret Garden, to a Belgian riverside retreat that’s filled with Seventies furniture and a glut of coffee table books, perfect for bedtime browsing.
In our travel pages, it’s time to sleep under the stars… in style. Plan an effortlessly cool glamping trip – look out for the hot tubs, pizza ovens and en-suites on offer – and pay a visit to Bath for a dose of Jane Austen fever and plenty of chic shopping.
We also dive into the world of collectable film props (which may inspire you to get cosy with a movie night) and spotlight the Vivienne Westwood fashion coming up for auction at Tennants.
Of course, there’s also our usual round-up of auctions and antiques fairs across the UK and Northern Ireland, ideal for treasure hunting closer to home… assuming you can bear to leave the comfort of your duvet.
