A while back in an old issue of Notebook magazine, I was awe-struck by a beautiful property featured. It was one of the retreats on the Black Barn Vineyard in Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. After some browsing, I found that all of the properties listed on the Black Barn site have been beautifully decorated, taking advantage of a neutral colour palette without compromising on character. Here is a collection of my favourite Black Barn images...
Oh, they are so beautiful aren't they? Actually beautiful isn't the right word, you just want to dive right into the pictures and be there!
ReplyDeleteSee you this afternoon! Hope you have your creative hat on! Shouldn't be a problem for you!

ReplyDeleteHi Amanda, gorgeous pics! That bathroom is heavenly, and the first kitchen, with the vaulted ceilings? Yes please!!
ReplyDeleteNZ has so many lovely spots, and they seem to be really concious of retaining the heritage and character of the old places.... don't you wish we had a few more of those here?

I'm imagining a beautiful view from that last room (?sunroom). Looks nice and relaxing.
