Red, White and Blue Cottage Bedrooms

Aren't these cozy cottage bedrooms delightful and inviting?  Full of quilts, comforters, stripes, ticking, gingham, plaids, florals and lots of fluffy pillows, they are an invitation to recline, relax and reboot!

Pool Pavilions

These pavilions are so charming, it wouldn't matter if there was a pool or not!

They can be used as a retreat from the sun (or rain), dining, resting, reading and relaxing or in some cases, guest houses.

Who needs a pool?

Bunny Williams' Greek style pavilion with a fireplace!

I love this conservatory pavilion!

The smaller the cozier!

What a cozy spot to retreat from the sun or the rain!

Then there's Ralph Lauren's Bedford pool/guesthouse!
