Norfolk Cottage

Norfolk Cottage

A charming two-bedroom guest cottage nestled within our client’s estate, this space was designed to feel both connected to and distinctly separate from the main house: a private sanctuary that offers guests a sense of calm and retreat.

The interiors are defined by a soft, muted palette of gentle greens and blush pinks, creating a soothing backdrop that feels both fresh and timeless. 

Throughout the cottage, layers of pattern and texture bring character and warmth; delicate, ditsy wallpapers wrap the rooms in subtle detail, while bespoke joinery introduces moments of craftsmanship and quiet interest.

Despite its more intimate scale, the cottage was approached with the same level of care and consideration as the main residence. Each room has been thoughtfully composed to feel individual and memorable, with rich artwork adding depth, personality, and a sense of narrative. The result is a series of spaces that feel inviting and unique, offering guests a beautifully considered escape within the wider estate.
