To celebrate the publication of Life Inside a Cottage, we’re giving you and a lucky guest the chance to win a complimentary two-night stay at Maen Melin cottage in Wales, plus £100 travel money.

Life Inside a Cottage explores the enduring appeal and evolving identity of cottage-style living. Interiors writer and editor Nell Card and creative director Rachel Vere document how a new generation of designers, makers and homeowners are reimagining the cottage for modern living.

Structured by style, including Workers’, Urban, Contemporary, Historic and Creative, the book features over 20 homes that each reveal distinctive aesthetics and ways of living. From a RIBA award-winning design in Wales to a Japanese woodland escape, this book beautifully captures the charm and quiet magic of the cottage. The cover star of the book is the very cottage where you will be staying, Maen Melin, one of two cottages that form Little Mill in Abergavenny, Wales.

Through evocative original photography and thoughtful writing, Life Inside a Cottage captures the characters and creativity at the heart of cottage living.
