We have spent the last couple of visits sorting out a new set of cabinets for the kitchen, having been advised that we really should have a dishwasher in the house. Unfortunately the old wooden units could not be adapted, so we have ended up with some shamelessly modern cabinets.
We haven't quite got around to the finishing touches, but at least the sink and dishwasher are now useable and the kitchen looks much brighter.
As you can see the open fire has also been replaced with a wood-burning stove, which is just as lovely and cosy. A couple of shelves for wood storage, and something to put above the sink in that gap, and it will all be super.
We haven't had the garden furniture out yet this year but as we left the sun was shining gloriously so I couldn't resist another picture:
