English Country Chic

Let us day dream this time and look into this chic and elegant country home of Jemma Kidd and Arthur Wellesley, son of the Duke of Wellington, featured in the April issue of Elle Decor. They made the brave move from their home in Notting Hill, London to their country estate in the Hampshire to create a better, cleaner environment for their children. The whole house which is Georgian style is surrounded by well manicured gardens, well trimmed trees and even a riding field for Jemma. Inside, their house was decorated by Penny Morrison which worked together with the couple to create a comfortable and chic home to reflect their own personalities, collections from travels and included family history and heirlooms too.
