    The room is further enhanced by tastefully designed handmade jute wall lamps positioned on either side of the bed, serving to illuminate and elevate the room’s ambiance.

    Bathroom

    The master washroom, rendered in soothing tones of gray and accented with wood, boasts built-in storage featuring glass sliding doors reminiscent of a sophisticated walk-in closet.

    Additionally, a generously sized mirror and a contemporary bath cubicle contribute to the washroom’s luxurious feel.

    At the heart of the home’s design philosophy lies the thoughtful incorporation of natural materials such as wood, cane, and stone, harmoniously paired with textiles like linen and cotton. Handcrafted details, like the bespoke lamps that adorn the walls, resonate with the home’s countryside inspiration, adding a layer of artisanal charm.

    This deliberate choice of materials not only augments the home’s aesthetic charm but also infuses it with a palpable sense of warmth and tactile comfort, ensuring that every space within the home resonates with a welcoming and serene atmosphere. These thoughtful touches ensure that the holiday home_Inner Circle stands as a beacon of relaxed sophistication and timeless design, offering a retreat that is both a reflection of its owners’ journeys and a canvas for creating new memories.
