An Interior Designer Shows Us Her Dream Cottage

When interior designer Bee Osborn first left London with her teenage daughter in favour of the Cotswolds, she didn’t plan on making the move permanent. But with her two other grown-up daughters quickly joining her (a response to the pandemic) the family soon settled into a new life at their idyllic country cottage.
