Previous pages: The main feature of the spacious new kitchen is a huge classic kitchen dresser, which Adrian’s parents bought at an auction in Rye Above: Under the kitchen’s central work table there’s a Fortnum & Mason crate, full of more china treasures which are in everyday use. Adrian made the tea cosy out of old ties The first impression of Cheyneys Almshouse is of a neat Dutch-gabled cottage of great charm and character, but as you reach the front door it becomes clear that this might not be the modest little country home it appears to be from the outside. Stopping to admire the two elegant stone dogs on either side of the front step, you notice that the multiple pairs of boots and shoes scattered around it, as if just discarded after a walk, are all planted with the tiny hardy succulents known as houseleeks. Once owners Adrian Howard and his partner Sven welcome you in – and a very warm welcome it is – your eyes and brain go into overdrive, trying to take everything in.
