Garden tranquillity is to be cherished and what better way than in one of these amazing garden retreats designed and built by specialist summerhouse manufacturer Scotts of Thrapston. They’ve teamed up with The National Trust to sell these luxury outbuildings which retail around the £9,495 mark.
There are two designs, the Reading Room, inspired by Virginia Woolf’s garden writing room at Monk’s House, her Country home in Sussex, and the Writer’s Retreat which is entered through a charming stable door and is the smaller of the two delightful buildings; it promotes a rustic and romantic style, with natural stained wood boarding inside and heritage style paints to the exterior.

Sleep expert We Love Sleep is the first UK retailer to jump into the eco bed properly with their 100% Organic Bedroom!
“What the hell is that” I hear you say… well it consists of a traditionally made organic divan mattress, organic silk bedding and an air-purifying night light which cleans the air whilst you sleep.
Believe it or not, most mattresses today are covered in all manner of nasty chemicals which you no doubt breath in 8 hours every night and which lead to asthma, rashes and all manner of other nastys… I personally think we are looking into the future of bedding!
The set retails at around £1,500.
