One of our customers wrote to ask us to ask if we would like to stay in their newly renovated farmhouse and holiday let and take pictures of their two deVOL kitchens and utility room. Of course we jumped at the chance, a trip to the south coast not far from Brighton in the beautiful West Sussex countryside, what a treat! The house had been renovated and styled to create an idyllic family home that also doubles as a photoshoot location and holiday retreat, so Tim and I packed our bags and went off to Lidham Hill Farm.<\/p>\n

Lidham Hill Farm has a website<\/a> with lots of lovely images, so we knew it was going to be fun and we would get some amazing photos, but we didn’t realise it was going to be spectacular. Down a winding country road with grass growing in the middle of the road, this grand old house is tucked away behind some beautiful wrought Iron Gates. You instantly get a feeling of being somewhere really special and completely un-contrived, no glitz or bling but a wistful and very authentic place that is just waiting to be explored. The light was immediately noticeable, soft and atmospheric, there was room after room of quirky, homely, really thoughtfully chosen furniture and objects that made this place feel very special, it was almost like being in a movie or an old childrens book like Narnia or Swallows and Amazons. Nothing was ordinary or obvious and it all seemed as if it had been there for years, modern art mixed with taxidermy, beautifully original and softly worn stone floors alongside brightly coloured fabrics and antiquarian books and maps. Simply every corner of this rambling place was a beautiful photo opportunity, from the old terracotta pots with overgrown lavender to the hand woven fences and spiky seed heads from last years verbenas. Oh and the completely beautiful rustic outdoor dining area with a view of the South Downs, the cows and chickens and the distant notion that the sea is somewhere close. Whether you want to marry, get away from the world or just write, draw and contemplate, this is the place you would want to come. If you wanted to take photographs for whatever reason, this is the place you would have to come to!!<\/p>\n
