Laura Ashley | A Getaway... and a Giveaway

If you follow along on Instagram, you probably noticed that last week we disappeared into country life for a few days. It was magical and quiet in all the ways that you hope for when getting out of town. 

Due to the kindness of a friend offering to watch Viola, we got the chance to skip town for two nights. While we had ambitious plans before we left, once we arrived at the Manor- we just melted into the coziness of the property and didn't leave the grounds once.

I took obscenely long baths each night. I ate afternoon tea in a sunny bay window. I actually got to get ahead on work in a big way. And I watched way too many movies in a giant, fluffy bed. It felt like a great pause before in the midst of a busy season... plus, with it being Tyler's birthday, it was nice to give the man some undivided attention. He more than deserves it!

We stayed at Laura Ashley the Manor- a gorgeous property dating back to 1530! (You know, just two hundred years before the old US kicked things off.) The entire hotel is outfitted in the Laura Ashley style, so it's a very cool English experience watching the old + new collide. 

Check out my post on the LA Blog today with all our trip pictures of the stunning grounds and gorgeous hotel. It's the perfect getaway from London- just a little under an hour on public transport. Its such a nice getaway from the city without having to do the hassle of budget airlines or expensive train tickets! I dare you not to want to spend a night in this gorgeous place

Guess what else? Laura Ashley has kindly offered one of you £100 to spend in-store! Yay! Whether it's time to freshen up your dining room table, update your bedding without feeling guilty or... just spending it all on some new clothes- the choice is yours!

Entry is couldn't be easier as there are lots of easy ways to toss your name in the hat. Enjoy!
