In this issue!

Whether you go all out with the decorations at Christmas or prefer a more toned down affair, you’ll find plenty of ideas in this issue for making your home feel warm and welcoming with an abundance of festive cheer. Keeping sustainability at its heart, our shoot focuses on a mixture of treasured old decorations and carefully sourced new ones, made from well sourced paper or natural materials, which can be brought out year after year if taken good care of. Elsewhere we ask a handful of our favourite antiques dealers to share their Christmas wishlists, we round up the best castles to stay in, share some traditional cocktail recipes and tour four houses including Agatha Christie’s holiday home.
