How to Decorate Your Holiday Home
3 Steps to Kitting Out Your New Holiday Home
Once upon a time, holiday homes were the lifestyle of the rich and famous. Nowadays, more and more people are snapping up the chance to own a holiday home in their home country or further afield.
If you’ve recently purchased a holiday home, here’s three top tips and tricks for furnishing it to the latest fashionable styles.
- Hang Tasteful Art
Art is a fantastic way to express yourself. Whether you’re a fan of the classics and enjoy Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers”, or Munch’s “The Scream”, or you fancy something a little bit more on the modern side, hanging your favourite prints on the wall of your home can make it seem more homely, especially if your abode is empty for a fair portion of the calendar year.
Websites like Poster Lounge have a huge gallery of art posters available for purchase that will instantly brighten up your holiday home with a dose of culture. You can even choose from canvas prints, exhibition posters, and typography for tasteful decoration.
- Buy a Comfy Guest Bed
If you’re likely to have guests staying in your holiday home, you might want to think about purchasing a comfy mattress for them. After a day of adventuring, there’s nothing better than sinking into a comfy and supportive bed.
Experts at Archers Sleep Centre are always on hand to assist you with finding the best single bed for your guest room. Whether you will need a soft, firm or medium mattress with springs or foam, you can be assured of outstanding prices and services.
You might also want to consider purchasing some high quality bedding, sheets and pillows. If you’re commercially letting your holiday home, these items will all help you to score a higher rating on whichever platform you advertise on.
- Leave Welcome Packs for Guests
If you’re thinking of opening up your holiday home to guests either privately or commercially, you might want to consider investing in some small welcome packs for them upon arrival. These could include tea bags, coffee, UHT milk, a local map, some sweet treats and maybe even some alcoholic beverages. This will aid your guests if they are arriving late at night, or if initially struggle to locate any local shops.
If you will need large amounts of these items, plus toilet paper, or toiletries, you may benefit from shopping at a wholesaler like Costco.
Not only will your items be cheaper, but you can bulk buy piles that will last you much longer than the stock you would normally find in a standard supermarket. Membership fees start from only £33 per year, and you’re likely to save a truck load more than that!
