If you want to create a completely classic country bathroom, you won’t go far wrong with wood panelling. When it comes to varnish choices, a mid to darkish colour will keep the look traditional. Let the grains of the wood shine out for the best effect. Choose a pale-coloured bath for brightening contrast.

Make the most of a sloped ceiling with a freestanding bath placed near a low-level window. Shutters are a great option, as they can be opened when you want to enjoy the view or shut when you want your privacy.

This spacious-feeling bathroom shows just how roomy an attic en suite can be. Even with sloped ceilings on both sides, the room manages to feel open and light. Choose a large bath instead of a shower, as you might struggle to find the head height.

This country bathroom has very clean lines, thanks mostly to the tongue-and-groove panelling that surrounds the bath, lower walls and vanity unit. The plantation-style shutters are a sleek addition, too, which ties in with the scheme. An old wooden corner cupboard is handy for displaying smart toiletries.

The slanted ceilings of an attic lend a magical feel to any space. They can be a little tricky for a bathroom, as there’s not much space to install a shower. However, a beautiful freestanding, claw-foot bath will more than make up for the lack of shower. Placed centrally between the eaves and beneath a window, this is the ideal spot for a tub.

Use similar units to those found in a kitchen to create maximum storage space in a bathroom. Here, there is even a handy window seat that cleverly hides storage space for towels and bathmats. The shape of the seat echoes the curved bath opposite, too, which is a custom-fit solution that enables an awkward space to accommodate a roomy tub.

Choose mellow paint for your bathroom walls to create a soothing country bathroom scheme. Green is a natural shade that inspires relaxation, which is ideal for a good soak after a long day. Tongue-and-groove panelling encases the bathtub and surrounds the rim of the bath so that it’s barely noticeable. Further country styling comes from the plantation shutters.

In older buildings, sometimes you have to be flexible to work with what’s there. This bathroom had an uneven floor, so it couldn’t be tiled in a traditional way. The owners opted for this beautiful flooring, that allowed a smooth look. The free standing tub adds a touch of extravagance to the room, and the traditional wooden unit is in keeping with the classic, muted colours of the neutral room.
