Heavenly Holiday Homes…
It’s a bank holiday, it’s almost summer, and the world is opening up, so thoughts are turning to holidays. We’ve got all the inspiration to ‘take your holiday to your home’ plus a few options of homes currently on the market!
Whether it is a coastal-style hideaway or a rustic country retreat, holiday homes are a fantastic way to spend your hard-earned time off, not to mention an excellent source of design and decorating inspiration.
With an abundance of homes to choose from, we’ve shortlisted 7 inspired ideas from holiday homes that will muse even the most indulgent holidaymakers. Remember, all of these incredible home ideas exhibit stunning design and decorating features that can easily be incorporated into your own home too!
1. Woven furniture
Due to its durability and affordability, rattan or cane furniture is commonplace in beach and coastal style holiday abodes. The natural materials and ancient wicker techniques, not only add texture to a room, but the look is synonymous with tropical beach resort style.
2. Floor-to-ceiling blinds
It’s one of the oldest tricks in the book, but for a good reason. Floor-to-ceiling drapes rouse romantic ideas of weekends away with a view. Whether it be loft-style apartments that gaze over the city, or open plan homes that peer out across natural wonders, this style of window furnishing helps to create privacy and a touch of luxe in homes that feature expansive windows or glass walls.
3. Creative tiling
Statement tiling is often embraced in holiday home bathrooms, especially scallop tiles (AKA mermaid tiles) - and it’s easy to see why. Hailing from exotic holiday destinations like Morocco, busy and colourful tiling gives bathrooms an eclectic, elegant and worldly feel.
4. Richer, darker hues
Harder, better, faster, stronger: this year has seen warmer, richer palettes making a comeback with darker furniture reigning supreme in holiday home decorating. The result: a glamorous and modern finish that makes you feel like you’ve just stepped into a villa in Bali.
5. Natural, long-lasting materials
Sustainability is more important than ever for consumers, especially when it comes to furniture. Using sustainable materials such as wood is not only better for the environment, but it also brings an element of nature into your living space. The calming qualities of natural materials will help you feel like you are on holiday’s every day.
6. Textured throws
Textiles play a considerable role in decorating a home and help make holiday rentals feel warm and inviting. Something as simple as a textured throw or cushion can add an exciting textural element to your styling and make your home always look guest-ready.
7. Bold bathroom wallpaper
The bathroom is the perfect place to experiment with bold and beautiful patterns. The best part is that it’s usually the smallest room in the house, so you won’t need to invest in as much wallpaper. A tropical print matched with timber details makes the perfect beach house bathroom.
