THE SCOTTISH COUNTRY HOUSE BOOK REVIEW AND A GIVEAWAY!


I've been enamoured, and a little obsessed with the verdant countryside of Scotland and its magnificent estates. Lucky enough to visit the country several times, I'm always struck by the unassuming grandeur of its architecture and enchanted by the eclectic, cultivated interiors of its homes. If you have a highland crush too, James Knox's lush book, The Scottish Country Home (Vendome Press) will appeal to your architecture and design spirit. Knox focuses on ten impressive homes and castles from the seventeenth to the twentieth century, detailing their historical significance, architectural style and offering a variety of fascinating stories from their descendants, many whom still inhabit these homes today.  






 Gorgeous book, isn't it? If you love the majestic architecture and eclectic interiors of the Scottish Countryside then join the giveaway for your copy of The Scottish Country House

Here's How to Enter:

1) Visit the The Vendome Press site and take a moment to look around. See the facebook link? Go ahead and "friend" them.

Good Luck!

Looks like a gorgeous book! Like you, I have a bit of an obsession with the Scottish country side. Could I have lived in one of those manors in a former life? Perhaps!
Happy Wednesday!
