The ideal British home can be yours, if only for a weekend. The Reading Rooms is a Georgian townhouse turned into a luxury bed-and-breakfast, located in the seaside resort of Margate, England (famous in the 18th century for its beaches and architecture). Owners Liam Nabb and Louise Oldfield have done justice to the commodious three-bedroom home in their restoration, drawing inspiration from their time in Florence, Italy. Each light-filled room encompasses an entire floor of the house, and the Georgian plaster work, parquet flooring and cornices have been expertly restored, and walls have been painted in historic shades from Farrow & Ball.
