    But imagine the curtains! I don't think dunelm have that size. Lovely, though: if we were still renting and I could handle the commute, I'd be tempted. Whether it would still look so good with my manky furniture and family, I dunno.

    Good ones around here include:

    That orangery looks amazing, but would be expensive to heat on electric (is there even central heating?) and council tax is band F.

    I know exactly what you mean op, I spotted this at the weekend, and am sorely tempted.

    B***dy hell!

    Pardon my French, but £1200? For this beauty? What am I doing in my Surrey where £1200 per month will rent you an average-sized 2-bed flat on a second floor?

    I am packing my suitcase and taking the first train to West Yorkshire!
