Open Sesame – Cotswold Life

After Jake and Pat bought their Cotswold cottage they rented a house elsewhere while they had various walls demolished in their home.

Although the cottage was quite large the rooms were small and dark whereas the couple like the open-plan look. Result – a large and airy kitchen with units hand-made by WCM and hand-painted in Ammonite by F & B. The team also made the large oak table and extra cabinetry in the dining room which was hand-painted in Marble ll by Paint and Paper Library.
