Surrounding yourself with beautiful things that make your environment exactly how you want it to be. A place that conveys a comforting spirit of warmth and wellbeing \u2013 encouraging you and the people you love to enjoy life\u2019s quieter pleasures. We hope you enjoy this guide on how to be more hygge in your&nbsp;home&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"a-new-season\">A NEW&nbsp;SEASON<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As the nights draw in and our attentions turn back to the intimacy of home after the bright and busy bustle of summer, there couldn\u2019t be more of a fitting time of year to embark upon such a worthy endeavour. As autumn arrives, it brings with it the time to slow down and take a breath, to treasure the simple pleasures of home.\u00a0<\/span><span&nbsp;data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It hardly seems a coincidence that Hygge has sprung from Denmark, a country with notoriously harsh winters. Nevertheless, Denmark regularly tops lists of the world\u2019s happiest countries. This has been credited to its inhabitant\u2019s preoccupation with converting their homes into uplifting sanctuaries with a strong connection to nature. <\/span><span&nbsp;data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">But welcoming the spirit of Hygge into your home needn\u2019t mean mimicking pared-back Scandinavian minimalism. This can be a personal endeavour guided entirely by your own tastes, and what cultivating contentment and a tranquil way of living means to you and your family.\u00a0<\/span><span&nbsp;data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"hygge-and-cotswold-comfort\">HYGGE AND COTSWOLD&nbsp;COMFORT<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">For us here at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cotswoldco.com\/\">The Cotswold Company,<\/a> it is beautifully compatible with the guiding aspiration at the very heart of our business \u2013 to help create happy, harmonious homes. Through homewares that are inspired by the rhythm of nature and made sustainably. With an emphasis on longevity, craftsmanship and textured materials. Pieces that bring a feeling of comfort and joy into the home, today and tomorrow.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Perhaps most importantly, Cotswold Comfort seeks to bring loved ones together. Encouraging those magical moments of closeness in wonderful surroundings, to savour and be present with. Because that, surely, is what makes life precious.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14620\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14620\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cotswoldco.com\/bedroom-furniture\/beds\/charlbury-mineral-grey-kingsize-4-poster-bed\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14620\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=400%2C540&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Charlbury, four poster bed, bedroom furniture, beds, Cotswold Company, how to be more hygge\" width=\"400\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=222%2C300&amp;ssl=1 222w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=759%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 759w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=768%2C1037&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=110%2C149&amp;ssl=1 110w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=300%2C405&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=380%2C513&amp;ssl=1 380w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=800%2C1080&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=220%2C297&amp;ssl=1 220w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=600%2C810&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=760%2C1026&amp;ssl=1 760w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?resize=444%2C600&amp;ssl=1 444w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cotswoldco.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CotswoldCo_08.22_0044_HRU-copy.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14620\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Imposing in stature, our new Charlbury four poster bed is crafted from robust yet delicately grained solid Ash wood.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"a-restful-retreat\">A RESTFUL&nbsp;RETREAT<\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As the nights begin to draw in, most of us crave a cosy haven of calm to retreat into.
