English Country Interiors : Inside Cotswold Homes

The Cotswolds (Gloucestershire, West Oxfordshire, and parts of North Wiltshire) have a rich history, stunning architecture, and glorious countryside. English Country Interiors features 18 specially photographed Cotswold homes, all with classic and singular charm. Each house belongs to a person with a particular trade, from bee-keeping and bookmaking to carpentry and cooking, and reflects the owner's work and interests. Many period-style buildings are showcased, including a mill house where an artist finds her inspiration; a 17th-century hunting lodge; and a terraced cottage where a farmer follows age-old agricultural traditions. Mark Nicholson's stunning photography brings alive this beautiful section of England-a favorite of both British and foreign tourists-capturing the essence and feel of each individual property.

The photographer Mark Nicholson specialises in architectural and interior photography, and his work has been published in numerous titles, including Elle Decoration, Tatler and Homes & Gardens, as well as books for the BBC. He has photographed many of the great houses of England and Wales and has carried out assignments for the British Royal family. He is based in London.
