Life IS BETTER by the sea...

Yes it is, officially, 'life is better by the sea' because this month's issue of Coast says so right there on the front cover.


Coast. in case you did not know, is a sister magazine to my wife's favourite 'Country Living'. And as Country living is to the country, so Coast is the veritable first and last word in beach side living, sea flavoured interior design (lovely properties and photography) and beach style.

We took out a subscription to Coast in order to put it in the house for two reasons; firstly because we know that there will be people like us who would enjoy relaxing with a hot cuppa, feet up in the bay window, and in between checking out the ocean views out front of our house also delving into other beach side dream houses around the UK. Secondly because Cornwall always features prominently in each issue and certainly some great holiday ideas and activities can be gleaned from Coast's glossy pages. To prove my point this issue features the best islands in the UK to visit and right there at number one... St Michaels Mount.
