Hello my sweetie! Today it's a great pleasure for me to have a special guest Most of you surely already know my darling friend Helena, from the wonderful blog "The Swenglish Home". Cari amici oggi è proprio un gran piacere per me avere un'ospite speciale. Molti di voi sicuramente la consceranno la cara amica Helena dal bellissimo blog "The Swenglish Home". She has the special talent of discover beauty even where another eye would not see anything special. And I like the way she is able to mix different styles and create a special harmony with few simple things Lei ha un talento speciale nello scoprire la bellezza anche dove altri occhi non avrebbero visto niente di particolare. E mi piace il modo in cui è così abile nel mecolare stili differenti e creare un'armonia speciale con poche semplici cose But let darling Helena speak! Ma lasciamo parlare Helena! Dear readers of Shabby Soul, I was very flattered when my dear blog friend Silvia asked if I would like to guest blog here, and I feel honoured to do so today. My name is Helena and in my blog “The Swenglish Home”. I write about my interior ideas, craft projects and a little about the life of a Swede living in the UK. Cari lettori di Shabby soul, sono stata molto lusingata quando la mia cara amica Silvia mi ha chiesto se mi sarebbe piaciuto essere sua ospite, e ne sono molto onorata. Sono Helena, il mio blog è “The Swenglish Home”. Scrivo le mie idee di decorazione, progetti e un po' sulla vita di una svedese che abita in Inghilterra. I live with my English partner and our two young boys in a Victorian house in a picturesque part of England near Bath. Vivo con il mio compagno inglese e i nostri due figli in una casa Vittoriana in una parte pittoresca dell'Inghilterra vicino Bath. I work part-time as a consultant and university lecturer in Cross-Cultural Communication, and also make decorative items for the home, which I sell locally. Lavoro part time come consulente e docente universitaria in Comunicazione Interculturale Creo anche oggetti decorativi per la casa, che vendo in zona. Travelling has always been a big part of my life, and this is reflected in our home, where several different interior styles are mixed together. Viaggiare è sempre stata una parte importantissima della mia vita e questo si riflette nella nostra casa, dove sono mescolati tanti differenti stili. Turkish lanterns sit next to French vintage finds and Swedish linen fabric, and - of course, with my Scandinavian background - wood is a material that can be found throughout the house! Lanterne turche siedono accanto a oggetti vintage francesi e biancherie svedesi, e naturalmente - data la mia origine svedese - il legno è il materiale che si trova in tutta la mia casa! Having started as an interior decorating blog, I find myself being more and more drawn out into the garden too, creating little “rooms” and relaxing corners in our outside space. Ho iniziato come blog di decorazione di interni, ma sono sempre più portata ad uscire anche nel giardino, creando piccole stanze e angoli rilassanti nel nostro spazio esterno If, like me, you are fascinated by contrasts in your decorating and creating, England really is a wonderful environment to live in. Se, come me, anche voi siete affascinati dai contrasti nel vostro modo di decorare e creare allora l'Inghilterra è veramente un luogo magnifico in cui vivere. I often introduce “rougher” materials when I decorate, with a particular love of anything rusty. Mixing textures of wood, linen fabrics, old metal objects with softer textiles, fresh flowers and lots of evergreens, gives a room a relaxed feel. I desire to keep a playful and curious mind when decorating. Introduco sempre materiali grezzi quando decoro, amo particolarmente tuto ciò che è arrugginito. Mescolare legno, tessuti di lino, vecchi oggetti di metallo, con tessuti soffici, fiori freschi e tanti sempreverdi, dona alla stanza un'atmosfera rilassata. Mi piace avere una mente giocosa e curiosa quando decoro. I am eager to try! Sono entusiasta di provare! Thank you for your time and thank you again, Silvia, for the opportunity to meet your readers. Wishing you all a lovely summer! Grazie del vostro tempo e grazie ancora Silvia per l'opportunità di incontrare i tuoi lettori Auguro a tutti una bella estate Helena Thank you Helena too, for staying with us!! Silvia

Circa 1675. According to the Visit Bath website: Double Winners of The Tea Guild’s Top UK Tea Place and the Home of West Country Afternoon Teas. Judged as ‘near perfect’ and awarded The UK’s Top Tea Place by the prestigious UK Tea Guild. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to sample the wares. Update 2016: Had our best lunch so far this trip here today. There were no flowers on the exterior, but the interior is delightful and the food and service were wonderful. It's No. 1 on TA and well deserved.

The next village on our “to explore” list was Stow On The Wold. Another sleepy postcard town complete with tea shops, galleries, pubs and antique shops galore.

It is a Grade II* Listed building.
