There’s a timeless appeal to a country kitchen that really never goes out of style. While sleek, contemporary kitchens may look great for a short while, it’s the more traditional kitchens which remind us of our childhood homes, or that of our grandparents and fill us with nostalgia. It’s funny how the smell of a roast dinner or the tantalising scent of baking cookies can bring us right back to simpler times – when it didn’t matter if things were a little chaotic or busy or there was flour on the floor or crayons scattered across the table. And so the appeal of a country kitchen remains and will probably always be a classic choice for many home owners wanting to bring a bit of warmth into their homes.

But how do you bring a bit of ‘country’ into a kitchen and give it that comfortable warmth that makes them so appealing? Well, here are a few tips to give you some ideas if this is a look you’d like to try in your own home.
