Built-in wardrobes over bed in a modern bedroom, featuring floor-to-ceiling glass-fronted storage, integrated lighting, and a neutral, minimalist design that maximises space and keeps the room uncluttered.

Most UK bedrooms were never built for modern life, coats, bedding, luggage and “just-in-case” bits quickly take over. Built-in wardrobes over the bed turn wasted wall space into purposeful storage, keeping the room feeling calm and uncluttered.

Vibrant wild garlic soup garnished with a swirl of cream and fresh herbs, served at The Abbey Inn with Cornish Sea Salt branding visible on the table

Live pianist performing during evening service at Bettys, enhancing the refined dining atmosphere with soft classical music.

Bettys in the evening is a quietly luxurious affair. Think: live piano, polished silver, and traditional dishes made with care. We dined at their Harrogate location and rediscovered why this beloved Yorkshire institution remains such a draw, for visitors and connoisseurs alike.

After a disappointing first visit, we returned to Fat Hippo Leeds, and it was a total game-changer. From perfectly seasoned fries to one of the best chicken starters we’ve had in ages, this midweek meal proved how powerful it is when a restaurant truly listens, learns, and levels up.
