About

We're two Germans living in the UK, sharing our love for British cottages, countryside charm and timeless interiors. On this channel, we take you on deeply atmospheric tours through some of the most beautiful holiday cottages and historic homes across England, Scotland and Wales - always with an eye for colour, texture and detail. We speak English (with a British accent!) and share not only the interiors but also the paint colours, wallpapers and fabrics used - so you can recreate the look. Beyond that we show you our own Victorian home renovations, bake German and British cakes, explore the prettiest villages and occasionally film with British designers and business owners in their own inspiring homes. Whether you're here for escapism, interiors or countryside inspiration - you're very welcome. 🎥 New video every week. 📍 Filming across the UK – from Cornish cottages to Scottish hideaways. 💌 Business & collaborations: [email protected]
