An Affair With a House

I've owned this book for years and go back to it time and again for inspiration or just sheer indulgence. Bunny Williams has impeccable taste and the photos do fantastic justice to her beautiful New England house and garden, but the real joy of this book is in the story she tells and the tips she passes on (even recipes!) This is more than just a glorious coffee-table picture book; if you follow Bunny's advice on things such as setting out a guest room, or laying a table, you can almost begin to feel your life is a bit like hers....... if only.

I do love Bunny, and whilst this book is over 15 years old, the story and pictures are timeless I think. She hadn’t added her studio to her estate at this time so you need to look for images of that in her most recent book, but I enjoyed this tour of the property and it’s extensive gardens. Thoroughly enjoyable although maybe not to everyone’s personal decorating tastes.

Bunny William's style is very traditional so it's not my style as I prefer something more eclectic. The book is beautifully designed and some of the photography is by Fritz Schulenberg who is the best in my opinion. There are infact several buildings besides the 'house'. A guest house, guest barn, pool house, greenhouse. I drooled over every page. The gardens and porches are included and also some recipes. If your'e interested in interior design this a must have.

A house that has been nicely decorated. An interesting book to have with one's collection.

Beautiful photos and a passionate dialogue

Amazing book! A must have for people who love houses!

lovely book to look through and a lovely house. Obviously very 'old money' American Colonial, type of home, but very beautiful.

This book was very entertaining and the house is beautifully decorated with fabulous gardens. I wish there had been before as well as after photographs and also a before and after floorplan to fully understand the renovations undertaken. I enjoyed the non-decorating info - the recipes and also the things to put in a guest room.

Very happy with purchase, excellent condition and speedy delivery .
