Creating an English Country-style Kitchen

By: Real Stone and Tile | Posted: April 17, 2024 in Blog

As an iconic trend that has remained much loved by many for decades, the charming appeal of classic English country homes continues to circulate throughout leading home and lifestyle magazines, and as a trend, has recently gained popularity on social media platforms.

More and more homeowners are now taking inspiration from this style when completing renovations. We have even noticed customers shifting from their once-minimalist spaces to incorporate more character within their interiors when re-decorating.

Focusing on rustic materials such as wood and stone, alongside pops of retro colour with tiling and accessories, the English country-style kitchen offers plenty of options for individuals to play around with and add their personal touch to.

Throughout this blog, we will be sharing a range of English country-style kitchen design ideas, to inspire your next project.

Sought-after stone

Classic country homes tend to adopt a stripped-back feel, and this rustic appeal can easily be recreated by opting for worn stone-effect tiles, such as terracotta, brick, and limestone.

With plenty of highly realistic stone-effect tiles now available on the market, customers no longer need to aspire for the high price point of genuine stone, and can easily stick to a theme whilst remaining on budget.

Traditional tiles

Another key feature within many traditional English country-style kitchens is boldly patterned feature tiles, which are often seen dotted within splashback walls to provide a charming, decorative appeal.

As proud stockists of leading luxury tile brand, Ca' Pietra, we have compiled a collage of our top traditional tiles to enhance your kitchen – which can be either dispersed amongst a wash of colour or tiled across the entire splashback for a bolder effect.
