New Collection
Explorer's Garden: A Botanical Collection inspired by Cornish Gardens from Cream Cornwall
|
|
|
|
|
Launching today on the Spring Equinox, The Explorer’s Garden marks Cream Cornwall’s first botanical collection.Inspired by the flowers that flourish in Cornwall’s mild coastal climate, the designs draw on hydrangeas, camellias, agapanthus and gorse.
Each design begins as a hand-drawn illustration developed in the Cream Cornwall studio. The individual elements are then layered and coloured in the brand’s signature blue palette, creating expressive florals that feel both modern and timeless.
The collection also nods to Cornwall’s long history of plant hunters, whose travels brought many exotic species back to the county’s gardens.
Cushions - £44 | Botanical Lampshades - from £40 | Candle - £16

Chanel: N°5 Eau de Toilette Re-Edition
|
|
|
|
|
“N°5 Eau de Toilette is a modern, abstract floral composition distinguished by its subtly woody facet. The fragrance asserts itself through its elegance and complexity.” - Olivier Polge, CHANEL In-House Perfumer-Creator
The iconic fragrance takes shape in a new bottle, an absolute expression of simplicity.
The warm and vibrant Eau de Toilette opens with a floral bouquet of rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang, enhanced by aldehydes, while sandalwood and vetiver land depth and texture to the scent.
N°5 Eau de Toilette Re-Edition 75ml | £180

Theatre Review
Murder at Midnight at Theatre Royal Bath
|
|
|
|
|
Murder! Love! Robbie Williams wallpaper? India Farnham visits Torben Betts’ Murder at Midnight and delights in this talented cast’s farcical, slapstick joy.
"What’s best of all about Murder at Midnight, though, is that it knows it’s all this and more. From its first scene where a police officer comments, ‘if some joker had written this as a play or something, you would never believe it’ to its surprisingly Jacobean/tragic ending, Murder at Midnight is delightfully tongue-in-cheek."
Read the full review on our website
Catch Murder at Midnight at Theatre Royal Bath until 21 March. Tickets are still available via theatreroyal.org.uk.

The New Era
The New Era is a handsome and important Swedish magazine focused on interiors, design, art and craft that’s slowly moving its gaze beyond the Nordic and into Europe. And ‘slowly’ is the word, as issues once a year or even longer. It clearly takes a meditative approach, searching out inspiring, sustainably-produced design often using wooden materials and ideally with all elements consciously interrelated and in harmony. This issue, only the seventh, visits a modernist 1920s house in Stockholm and a 19th-century farm on the Swedish west coast, explores interiors by three leading interior design studios based in Scandinavia. It goes to Milan to visit the home of architect Francesco Zorzi of NM3, followed by the home and atelier of Older Studio, (makers of bespoke uniforms for forward-thinking brands) and the apartment of Finnish designer Ilkka Suppanen.

J.S Bach St Matthew Passion at Bath Abbey, 1 April
|
|
|
|
|
Experience the tragedy, the pity, and the hope of the Easter story – in the glorious setting of Bath Abbey.
In this Holy Week come and hear the beautiful sounds of baroque virtuosic specialist players Rejouissance as they lead the nationally acclaimed singers of Abbey Girls, Boys and Lay Clerks in this most uplifting and inspiring piece of music.
Evangelist sung by renowned tenor – Ruairi Bowen.
Previous performances by the choir described as ‘intense’ and electrifying, ‘full of energy and urgency’ ‘outstanding’.
Despite the wonderful baroque instruments and Bach’s superb imagination, the St Matthew Passion is rarely performed because of its complex and rich scoring. This is a rare opportunity to hear this amazing work during Holy Week in the captivating surroundings of Bath Abbey.

Offered for sale by Bath and Rural Estate Agents
12 Lambridge stands on the eastern edge of Bath, in the fashionable village of Larkhall – a thriving community with a genuine village feel, yet just a mile’s level walk into the city along road or canal towpath. Built in 1786 this detached, double-fronted Georgian townhouse is Grade II listed and a fine example of neo-classical style. With Bath stone elevations, slate roof, elegant proportions, and abundant natural light, it embodies the very best of Bath architecture.
Arranged over four floors, the house offers six bedrooms and versatile living space. The lower ground floor has served variously as a family office, a self-contained flat, and a successful rental. ‘That flexibility has been invaluable,’ say the current owners.
|
|
|
|
|
The ground floor plays host to two dual-aspect reception rooms with soaring ceilings, working shutters, decorative cornicing, alcoves, original fireplaces and stunning views. ‘It’s true Georgian elegance on a grand scale, yet still a warm and welcoming family home.’ Complimenting this floor is a large, light-filled kitchen/dining room.
The upper floors provide generous bedrooms, including a beautiful principal with ensuite, and a top floor that works perfectly as a private domain for children, complete with shower room.
The gardens are exceptional – almost half an acre, a rarity in Bath. Fully walled and private, they offer year-round colour, sweeping lawns, and a magnificent copper beech. ‘There’s always a place to sit in sun or shade,’ say the owners. A secluded heated swimming pool, working conservatory with figs, citrus, and grapes, and a large summerhouse with sunset views across to St Saviour’s spire complete this unique sanctuary. Rear access via electronic gates opens to private parking for several cars.
|
|
|
|
|
‘Beyond the garden walls, Larkhall offers excellent amenities, including schools, pubs, eateries and an active community centre and theatre, while a short stroll leads to Alice Park, the water meadows, the canal, or up Solsbury Hill.’
‘There’s a real sense of friendship and community here – we regularly meet with local friends and neighbours for meals and drinks.’
‘From world-class sporting facilities and well-regarded schools to outstanding restaurants and cultural life, Bath offers so much. With good bus services, access to the M4 and an 80-minute direct train to London one feels very well connected.’
‘We moved here in 1999 and raised our family in this house. It has given us so much – the space, the garden, the community. It’s time now for the next chapter, but this home will always hold a special place in our hearts.’
