    I think I’ll do the ceiling in white. 
    Bought a few testers for the walls. Haven’t put a lot on but gives some idea.
    Egyptian Cotton near the architrave and Polished Pebble.
    Natural Hessian looked a tad pink.
    As mentioned, it’s deceiving and can turn out darker that expected, especially after a couple of coats.
    It’s an East facing room and gets sunlight until early evening. Maybe a cool colour would work best as suggested by Dulux.

    All done.
    White Zinsser paint for ceiling and Dulux Egyptian Cotton on the walls.
    Managed to get a quite a good line along the join. Regular blue masking tape from Homebase did pull a tiny bit of the ceiling paint away.
    Have bought some Frog tape as suggested earlier.
    Thanks for the replies.
