Fabulous Christmas Getaways

If you want to spend your free Christmas time relaxing and reconnecting with nature, I have for you two wonderful destinations in French Alpes and Pavliani village at Central Greece. Both retreats are ideal for spending quality time with friends and family and have refreshing walks in the woods. So take a look and enjoy.


Cottage in Pavliani

This idyllic retreat can host up to 16 people and is located
outside the picturesque traditional village of Pavliani. The village itself, which marks the entrance to Oiti National Park, is divided into two parts, Ano (upper) and Kato (lower), separated by a distance of 2 km.The cosy and casual decoration of this cottage is exactly what makes suitable for a carefree Christmas holiday. A greenhouse and vegetable plot provide organically grown tomatoes, potatoes, corn, etc., while dozens of fruit trees offer quinces, apples, plums, mirabelles and cherries. Apart from the owner himself, who spends most of his time on the farm, there is also a friendly couple ready to provide any assistance around the clock.

Luxurious Chalet at the French Alpes
 
If you want and can afford to live a unique travelling experience, then take a look at this gorgeous chalet which is located in the French Alpes.
There's room for ten in this intensely private retreat, tucked away in its own grounds, yet only three minutes' from the centre of Les Gets. You make the rules and the manager is your personal concierge. The hand-picked team is expert at anticipating your every need from warmed boots for a dawn start onwards.
They will be there with breakfast, tea and dinner whenever you want it.

Colorful living in London

Today I have for you some white and red eye candy from London. This bright and colorful apartment located in Ravenscourt, London, has definetely a unique and very cheerful personality created by the bold combination of lots of white with touches of red. The poster of Pepsi logo and the Love sign, are used instead of common paintings, creating an original wall decor. The large white painted mirrors in the living room and bedroom make the rooms look more spacious and airy. The red stairs as well as the red doors are also very playful and authentic. I wonder how this unique home will look like during Christmas time with more red decoration items. What do you think? Would you dare have so many red pieces in your home as well. Looking forward to reading your comments below.

Moroccan Inspiration

Hello friends! I hope you had a great weekend! As Christmas is coming I thought to share with you an idea for holidays, if you haven't planned anything yet. It may not be the typical Christmas experience with snow and decorated christmas trees, but I think you'll have a great time there. I'm talking about Moroccan houses for rent in the small town of Taroudant at the foothills of Mountain Atlas.
At this small town a group of French expats after quitting their jobs , created a haven consisting of some beautiful homes and guest houses, all decorated with traditional and authentic Moroccan style. Take a look and get inspired.

Living big in small apartments

I welcome the weekend with a very warm and cosy apartment in neutral tones, located in Stockholm. Although it is rather small and divided in 2 floors, the owners have managed to make it look spacious and luxurious with some very clever and stylish details, such as the chandelier over the humble dining table in the kitchen and the wooden vertical beams. Isn't it adorable?

Modern and ethnic design in a villa in Ibiza

This gorgeous villa in Ibiza is designed by Godrich Interiors and combines perfectly some ethnic pieces with modern furniture. I love the  sofa with the multi colored ethnic design as well as the group of Moroccan pendants. The owners have used very succesfully the mix of colors and styles creating a unique boho chic result. Get inspired!
