Above: Downstairs, reached via French doors which face out on to the garden, is Ally’s office and work room. The room is filled with<br />
luscious fabric samples, wallpaper books and haberdasher’s goodies<br />
As you step down into each of the bedrooms, it<br />
would be easy to imagine that you were <strong>inside</strong> a castle<br />
turret and the classic, luxurious furnishings add to this<br />
impression. The main bedroom contains a regal, fourposter<br />
bed that belonged to Ally’s parents, carefully<br />
chosen dark furniture and overhead, a spectacular wirework<br />
chandelier: “I actually bought it in Africa, although<br />
they are made locally to here,” says Ally. The table-top<br />
lamps, with bead and feather trim, she commissioned.<br />
Ally is a fount of knowledge, when it comes to great<br />
suppliers of items less ordinary. Reclaimed, upcycled<br />
or imported from Africa one can only imagine that her<br />
contacts book is bulging. If you love the look, but lack<br />
the contacts, maybe you should drop her a line...<br />
