Country-style dining area with huge fireplace

Make a feature of a big fireplace by leaving the brickwork exposed. There’s not much need for other decoration when you have a focal point like this one. With the woodburning stove close by, there’s no better place to position your dining table. Go for a classic 50s chair, such as this Carl Hansen wishbone design, and mix up your colours so that plain wood isn’t overused.

Wooden dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows

Surround yourself with rustic materials for an enduring look that will easily handle heavy traffic from the garden outside. Stone flooring is difficult to wear out and it won’t show up every speck of dirt, so it’s ideal for country living. Choose furniture that suits the look of your property – in a rural setting, you can’t beat the natural feel of wood.
