Waiting list my arse !Interesting that you have to email the holiday company to book ( be added to the wait list ) rather than just book like all their other properties …

Oh yes. I forgot about their little stone cottage (it genuinely is little, unlike the faux modesty they attach to the other houses). I bet you’re right and they have sold it now. The IG freebies and profits from a dental practice only go so far.They also have a home in North Yorkshire, unless that’s been sold.
She raised it in 8 days or something. She’s bleated on about this house in France through the pandemic, while people were struggling. Don’t get me wrong, I think people should celebrate their accomplishments & if they can afford a house in France then fair enough, but it’s such a gross flex when people are choosing between eating and heating at the moment.Surely if you are in a position to buy a holiday home in cash, 10k is a trifling sum?!
Yes! I saw Me & Orla and the French place. People are struggling BIG TIME and they have the cheak to witter on about second homes. Not onReminds me a lot of Me & Orla, who has been documenting these last couple of weeks how she’s desperately trying to raise £10k… to buy her French holiday home in cash. The tone deafness is astounding.
shameless begging.She asked for gardener’s recommendations for the previous house not that long ago. Another shameless attempt at getting work done for free or heavily discounted.
She should’ve bought a building plot and built a Grand Designs-esque glass box on it rather than knocking the living hell out of this. They had the budget and the experience to do it.Katie really is disingenuous.
What’s important to her is LIGHT LIGHT LIGHT, so she purchased a Victorian home with dark interiors. And despite being a highly educated professional, she doesn't have the critical thinking skills to work out why period homes weren't built more open plan to take advantage of the light.
She could Google but I’m going to give her some pointers: homes with rooms that can be shut off are easier to heat with open fires; rooms with fewer and/or smaller windows stay warmer and also mean the furnishings don’t fade as quickly; homes with servants need areas separated by walls and doors for privacy; large pieces of glass were historically more difficult to make.
But really, Katie doesn’t want to know any of that - she’s just laying the groundwork for her followers. She wants her 2022 Instagram trend light and airy mansion for schilling, so she’ll knock down the walls, she’ll put panelling in what would have been the servant bedrooms, she’ll tack another ugly modern glass box on the back, she will paint the fireplaces lurid colours, and she will replace every goddam last piece of furniture.
Including the yellow sofa and beloved dining table.
