The Fernery in the Bathroom Courtyard

In the Fernery section of The Bathroom Courtyard we have tried yet another type of floor material.  Choice of flooring is first and foremost a matter of practicality in a country house; ease of maintainance, safety and longevity are all crucial factors to consider.  Then the "look" can be taken into consideration.

Granite cobblestones provide a good non-slip surface in The Fernery . This is important as the Fernery  needs  to be kept consistently moist and will soon have timed mist sprays installed .

By laying two colours of cobblestone in a checkerboard pattern we reflect d the timeless style of black and white  tiling that has been used throughout the entire house to this date.
