Our first finished room!


















Since arriving on Sunday, there has been little time for blogging as the real work now needs to be done! Steve has made great progress, one or two little setbacks but the tick chart was quite impressive.

I immediately set to wallpapering the downstairs en suite bedroom (Steve had done the hard work stripping at least 6 layers of wallpaper). That was finished by Monday lunchtime but this morning the sun was out and I ironed a nice new crisp eqyptian cotton duvet cover. A lot of woodwork painting has also freshened it all up and a good scrub before I climbed onto chairs and risked life and limb for some photos.

We are quite pleased how it has turned out, a cosy grown up room and the bed is a full king size. In a few weeks time our guests can enjoy a cosy morning coffee on the terrace outside their room or a dip in the heated pool. I just have some full length linen curtains to run up for the door, so I suppose technically it's not quite finished!
