Inside a 16th-Century Farmhouse Nestled in The English Countryside | Design Notes

  • Louise Jones welcomes us into her charming farmhouse located in Surrey. Enchanted by its idyllic setting, Louise Jones could see the merits of this 16th-century Surrey farmhouse despite its interior having been stripped of any character. With ingenuity and hard work, and the introduction of pattern and colour, she has given it personality in abundance.
    “I was struck by its location,” Jones explains. “It’s in such a tranquil, isolated spot - the scenery was pretty spectacular, so I thought that ticked that box… And the house and garden was a blank canvas!” Watch the full episode of ‘Design Notes’ as we tour Louise Jones’s remote farmhouse nestled in the English countryside.

    So beautiful. When I was younger I never understood the appeal of grandmas classic home but really it ends up being so timeless. If nothing changed in this home for the next 30 years I expect it will still feel the same, in a good way

    This is precisely what I imagine when I think of an English country house. Charm, warmth, comfort; nothing too fussy or pretentious-just a lovely, homely home.

    Heartachingly lovely, a little piece of heaven on Earth. Thank you Louise for being so generous as to share your home with all of us nosey parkers out here! Loved every square inch of your property, you did a magnificent job and ought to be very proud of what you achieved indeed. I look for historic country homes on real estate websites, my heart skipping a beat when I come across ones like yours-- but then am instantly crestfallen to see how unsympathetically so many of these country houses and cottages have been restored. I've felt like weeping dramatically a handful of times to see what these beautiful homes have had done to them internally. Nobody gives credit to people who care about architectural history and want to return these homes to former glory, restoring a property with sympathy, historical integrity and a sense of erudition and intelligence. Most of them get mauled, sorry, 'modernised'. It's absolutely ghastly. Hats off to you and what you've done here.

      😊 indeed kindred spirits and I definitely like flea markets.ive watched this video a couple of times, it's so well done, filming, the decoration, keeping original elements, the kitchen created with actual different pieces of furniture instead of a one piece wrap is all so great. There is one grey blue chair in the house I wish I knew the fabric, it's got the pattern in a lighter shade, it's beautiful.

    I absolutely love this home. Everywhere you look there's something unique, interesting and beautiful. I'm terrified of home design. I know what I like but I'm frightened that it doesn't go. After seeing this, I've decided to not care and have whatever I like! Life's too short.

    The house we lived in when my father was stationed in Essex was built in 1432 out of ships timbers. I’ve love old housed ever since. My husband and I live in a 1793 farm house in USA and bought a tower in Lazio area Italy built in 799. Probably the oldest we’ll live in permanently. We love old.

    I adore this home! Your choices in the bedroom to take the most advantage of the fantastic Tudor wall painting are wonderful! I also have a dark dining room that's at the center of the house, and it makes for a unique atmosphere. I like the wallpaper in the bathroom, especially as it's broken up with the beams. How fun to have your horses grazing in the garden while you relax. It looks like a charmed life, and a great place to escape the bustle of the city.

      And the dining room! It must look so stunning at Christmas time, lit up at night. I was watching one of those 'Country House Rescue' programs many years ago when a blowhard 'expert' waltzed into a grand home a couple had inherited and were struggling with renovating and redecorating and pronounced pompously that 'you NEVER EVER paint the walls of a dining room green, it's a big no-no, everybody knows this blah blah, it makes food look unappetising, it reflects on guest's faces and creates the illusion of a sickly pallor'... She went on and on. I've lost count of the amount of stately homes, cottages and country manors which I've seen with beautiful green walls so I wince at the recollection of this Know-it-All rambling on in that offputtingly arrogant (and ultimately incorrect) way. So much for being an 'expert' hey?

    Lurcher, a new word!
    A lurcher is a crossbred dog resulting from mating a greyhound or other sighthound with a dog of another type such as a herding dog or a terrier. The lurcher was for hundreds of years strongly associated with poaching; in modern times, it is kept as a hunting dog or companion dog.

    Loved it all - just my style (except for Portugese tile in a British Kitchen). Do you like reno youtubes - if you haven't seen "Escape to the Dream" - a British family in France restoring a 1720's small chateau with out buildings and they are very much do it yourselfers. I much prefer English decor to French but they are well worth the watch - the videos begin about 2020. It's hard not to cheer them on - such accomplishments --- but it does get down and dirty as the building had been abandoned over 40 years.

    I always watch these on mute so that only my eyes are engaged.
    I loved the outside, the animals, the flowers arrangements and the building.
    I disliked cushions standing at attention on the bed, bed pelmet, the mushed green peas color (so bad for complexion), the art.
    I question bathtubs in general in our current climate, and the refusal over cosmetics to use single taps with regulated water temperature.
