A Minimalist Cottage Home Tour
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- Perhaps a little different to the types of minimalist homes we're used to seeing online but I wanted to show you my version of a simple meaningful home this week. Hope you enjoy this tour of our country cottage and I hope it shows you that simplicity can look different for all of us. We can all find and thrive in our own version.
If you want to create your own minimal but cosy space, my ebook A Simplified Home is designed to guide you through the entire process step by step. You can find out more about it and decide if it's right for you here www.jessicaros...
Thanks for watching! x

I love the combination of the white with wood, beautiful and calm.
thank you. White and wood just go right?
Perfect
Noticed she said.. INTENTIONAL!! Her home is INTENTIONAL!! I think that is important to NOTE
It’s great to see a cosy relaxed minimalist home, much more to my taste than some of the stark empty shells I thought of as minimalist! Refreshing and I love the idea of surrounding yourself with only items you love. It’s quarter to ten at night and I feel like having a clear out!😁
thank you Justine!
Yes I totally agree Cosy relaxed minimalist
I love your take on minimalism! I also like the less sterile colors and incorporating nature, it makes the home so much more inviting and lovely
Thanks so much! 😊
Ma'am,you seem to be a very soft spoken and nice lady ! So God has blessed you with such a nice home which you can call your own ! You have decorated your home which reflects your inner sense of beauty ! 😃
What a beautiful cottage! So bright and cozy. Love the minimal decor to let the character shine
I love your style❤ I've worked as an interior designer for 30 years. I love your home. It's gorgeous. I just purchased a 118 year old cottage in CA. It's a beautiful 2 story cottage with only a few details left of the original old girl. Im hoping to bring back most of the original house. The kitchen was redone in 2004 to an all white kitchen, but it needs nature really bad. I'll lose all the upper cupboard doors to make them more cottage like. The base cabinets I'll paint a dark gray/blue. The island desperately needs the Corian removed and a Butcher block countertop installed. I do all my own work so it will take time. I'm going to revisit your cottage many times to remind myself of the direction I want to go🥰 until then I'm just praying the house isn't haunted. Ghosts find me no matter where I go. 😇
Hello! 🌷
I heard your voice, n saw the word, Cottage & was sucked in!! I have loved cottage style homes since being a very young girl. In my bedroom when I was a young girl, hung an embroidered picture of a pretty path to a darling cottage. It is now matted & framed beautifully. At my lil sisters home. We have built 2 homes & the second I found a style that had a cottage look with rock on front. rock fireplace, pretty front porch, dormers n window seat. But we have since downsized into a Condo in Palm Springs Ca. with an Rv to live in during the summers where all our fam n grandkids live. On the coast of Wash. State. I feel very blessed, but I still have a dream to be in the country with a very small 2 bedroom cottage that is French country style cottage & lots of white with sheer white curtains blowing n shabby chic touches with lots of wood & coziness. I love candles n light many every night in our home. Thank you for sharing your home & yourself to us here. It’s all just lovely!! 🌻
I love Misty mornings. They feel like a blanket 😊💝
L.O.V.E!!! It's simple, nothing-is-precious-but-life-itself look, unapologetic, rustic, down-to-earth, warm, everything that I want. Very charming!!!
The snap of the fireplace❤
You’re just so adorable and I look forward to your videos. There’s something about your music, the atmosphere and your lovely accent that brings me a moment of peace in my hectic life. Thank you 🙏
aw thanks Jules, that so kind of you to say. So glad you're enjoying the videos
Dear Jessica Rose......from your new subscriber...thank you....it is BEAUTIFUL....and white walls are just the best!!! Your home is not only beautiful but adorable.......enjoy every moment......!!!
Oh my your home is magical, everything i invision my future home to be (i'm only 19) i will save this video to my favourites and come back for inspiration in the future
Thank you ! I love the white walls and wood beams, and white/ wood color themes throughout! ♥️
Your space is gorgeous, and I just want to make a note to say please don't be afraid to show us your messy shower room! In truth, I think most people are messy (very very messy), and it's really nice to see other people's mess online because that's the way the real world is, which I wish social media / the internet showed a little more. Nobody is perfect! So don't worry about us judging the mess at all, it's more likely we will just relate :) Thank you so much for sharing. Love your channel! xxx
thanks Lili! Maybe a messy shower room tour is next ha ha. I love seeing other people's mess too.
Beautiful space! So calm, the bathtub, the stick curtain rod with simple curtains, a cozy chair, tea and a good book.....
My kind of country cottage. Absolutely serene and cozy. Thanks for sharing with us!
Beautiful and calming space ❤️ Thanks for sharing your space. Enjoy your office, even it’s small but closer to the fireplace and kitchen!!
thank you so much! You're so right, the kitchen being so close is a definite perk
I love this so much. Thank you for the inspiration, for sharing your home and creating a community of peace, love, serenity, compassion and kindness from your energies. I need to follow this incentive and thinking. I have too much clutter, but have been wishing to embrace this way of living for a decade or two. You have taught me that you can have warmth in a minimalist home. Thank you. With all my heart.
Lovely cottage and a nice size. Hope you consider adding fabric, mainly some curtains to give it the quaint cottage feel and will help with the drafts.
Love that curtain pole ❤ what a beautiful cottage and so inspiring x
Lovely ... and really minimal.
Using white walls are the way to go to achieve look plus warm neutrals. Very helpful.
thank you. I really love using whites and neutrals. Glad it was helpful.
Just came across this video. What a beautiful home you have. It shows the love you have for it by being so inviting and the way you have designed it. i like how you have furnished it and it is so calm and inviting to the viewer. Congratulations on achieving this.
Your house is beyond gorgeous
It’s honestly my dream to live in a house like yours
Even if I were a millionaire I’d want a house exactly like yours
Beautiful home.. Very scandinavian in style which is my aesthetic to :).. Cosy, calm and relaxing... You have my dream house :).. I don't like living in a city.. But can't change that at present due to kids.. I grew up on the wild Atlantic coast in north Devon.. I love nature... So understand why you moved where you are now.... It's beautiful!... I dream of moving back to a coast in the future!
So true.. A house is never done.. Especially with growing kids going through different stages.. I have just made a teenagers bedroom makeover.. That will be fine till he leaves home now... Now I am doing a junior school kid bedroom make over.. But I always try and reuse furniture from the house by upcycling stuff before I buy new. I did buy both boys new good quality wooded white stained beds which are singles but extend to 160 wide doubles... So they can take those with them when they leave home and they will fit 2 people for when they have their fist partners.. Because I always buy solid wood more expensive furniture, in light pine wood, it lasts and always looks light, clean and doesn't need replacing... And the advantage of wood is it looks better the older it gets! All walls in the house are white and I bring colour in with art work.. Which I have collected over the years from all my global trotting... Some are bright.. Eg my 2 big pictures/paintings from a couple of Caribbean islands, but I love them all!.. And the brighter ones are on my stairwell walls.
In my bedroom I just made a headboard out of solid wood shelves I didn't need anymore which I had bought 24 yrs ago for my first appartement when I moved to Germany... I love looking at furniture and thinking how I can reuse it!..
I am still decluttering and minimalising.. But with 2 kids it's ongoing!.. But at least I have finally separated and boxed all my (ex) husbands stuff after 18yrs together... I can not wait for him to collect it all... 70 boxes in total!.. The house will feel so much more spacious! Then I have donate and sales stuff which is my winter project to get out the house. I hate that 18 yrs of marriage, kids and to busy work life has allowed "stuff" to accumulated!.. although, thank God I am not "a shopper" (I hate shopping, it totally stresses me) so I only go out of necessity!
Your home is so lovely, full of natural decor and unusual features.
Calming. I felt calm the whole video. Thanks for sharing.
ah that's lovely to hear. Thank you so much
Jessica Rose Williams What’s the name of the white wall color? It’s creamy. Love it!
A beautiful smile with a polite voice and a gorgeous house.
Thankyou. I enjoyed your combined style of minimalism and nature, light ( white) functionality, relationship with your chosen space.
yes... home is much more about feeling and comfort. and warmth
I love how your tour is also minimalistic yet thorough. Just enough talk. You kept at the end the longest talk, thereby not having a long drawn or dragging intro (which can be the usual for many home tours).
Lovely home. It is interesting what different people call a cottage.
Simply beautiful...beautifully simple...
Thank you so much 😊
Your home s stunning...may you and Jason have many happy years there together in that special place.
thank you so much
Beautiful! Your home will keep me in English Countryside dreams for a long long time!
ahhhhhh, we do have the beautiful countryside over here - that's for sure. Thank you Karen
Hello Jessica- I've just discovered your beautiful, peaceful Vlogs. Your style is amazing and I'm so excited to see more of your YT videos. Thank you for sharing! I just love your Country Cottage. Hope you are well these days - stay safe.
Thank you so much!!
Question - can you tell me who authored your book "How to decorate"? I saw it in your bookshelf - and wanted to check it out. If it at all helped you define your decorating style, I'd love to read more. :)
The bath you drew for me was one of the greatest gifts I received last year. So lovely to see your smiling face, friend... and Dolly! My favourite. xx
Cait Flanders awwww! Hoping you’ll be back for a sequel soon friend xx
What a beautiful space...fabulous ideas. Thank you for sharing.
This is my dream house. I love your style. Simple and white and lots of wood and elements from nature. Perfection. Thank you for showing it to us.
You have such a warmth about you, thank you for showing us around x
thanks Kate. My pleasure x
It is very nice house with beautiful objects. Thanks for sharing video and hope to see more video my friend.
Your home is very lovely.
Hi Jessica I just found your channel and I love your cottage. It has so much charm. It brings me back to when I lived in Europe a couple of years ago. I've created the same feeling and vibe in my current home.
Thanks so much! 😊 Welcome!
I love your simple, beautiful, cosy cottage in such an idyllic setting. Thanks for showing us around.
thank you so much Kim
It's a real delight watching your videos. Thank you for showing us around your lovely home! x
AliceJ thank you Alice! 💕 you’re so welcome x
Such beautiful home, minimalist, yet so warm, cozy but especially inviting!
Oh it’s exactly the way I imagine an English cottage to be! So lovely ❤️
soo pretty. i love decorating with nature as well. great thing about it is that you can just return it when you're tired of it! i thought it funny that you said claw foot tub sold you, it certainly would for me.
Thanks so much Faith. Excellent point!
Beautiful, and I love how you were honest by not making the bed etc, love your decor and I really enjoyed this vid, thanks 😃
Such a beautiful home! I totally love your style, no need to buy a bunch of excess stuff to have a cozy nest. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful home and way of living! I actually enjoyed those colorful book covers in white background, looks lovely!
Thank you so much!
Love the simplicity of ur home
You are LIVING my dream Jessica Rose!
Sooo happy I found your sight. I love the book shelves. As long as I have my kitties and my books , writing stuff. I am home.
I absolutely love your precious cottage.
Thanks so much Glenda
OHHHHMYgod this is beautiful !!! You have such a calming voice I could listen all day while touring the serenity of your home ( not a house but 💞home💞
Thank you so much 😊
I like the rocky wall at 1:19, it really fits with the environment.
I am obsessed with your home! I’m gaining so many ideas from this video. Oh my goodness, love all the natural elements throughout you home, everything is beautiful 😍😍😍
I honestly mean this when I say I find your instagram / blog and now youtube one of the most useful places for information, education and inspiration! I absolutely loved this. Genuine, down to earth, realistic and aspirational :) thank you! x
Mary James thanks so much Mary. That means the world to hear. Glad you enjoyed this one 💕
Perfect! Was searching for a way to express minimal cozy look in my home. Came across your home and it's perfect!
yes! Totally doable. Our homes can look as cosy as we want and still be 'minimal'
How can 106 people dislike this?!? Jealousy? Your home is beautiful x
ha ha thank you Mia! x
What an adorable, cozy home.
I LOVE the sounds of the ravens!!! ...and yes, cute house. I never considered myself a minimalist, however I only like having what I use on a regular basis. I prefer having only two sets of sheets per bed, I prefer them all to be white, I only have enough plates, and silverware for our family of 5 to use one day, I prefer monochromatic rooms, and how I dress. I don't like patterns too much, unless it's black and white checkers, or the elongated diamond shape, but only on floors. Wer are building a large home, however, in the kitchen in don't want any of my appliances to show, eventhough we're going to have many, I want them hidden away inb the cabinets, or panelled. I only have make up in use like you, not a drawer full of lipsticks. I gave very few djies compared to my friends. I'm going to build a few capsule wardrobes fout different occasion or seasons, since with our family, we attend a lot of events and don'é are fancy - I don't have a choice...
You made me realize that I think in a minimalist, and that the only reason wer have a lot of things, like drinking glasses, or tea cups, it's not because we like having a lot of things - wer use them all, but because our family is large. Thank you!
You sound like a minimalist to me ha ha. Lots of people are but don't give it a label, I don't think the label is necessary anyway. So excited for your realisation x
Lovely! Maybe you and hubby can share the attic as your joint office space and migrate his record collection to below the stairs? Thanks for sharing.
Maybe one day!
I love how homey this feels, instead of just cold and lonely
You are living in paradise so calm
Love the all white walls 🤍
Thank you for sharing your home!
Very charming!!! Thank you for sharing!!
Good morning Jessica Absolutely lovely videos which I have recommended to my daughter. Your home is beautiful. Kind regards and very best wishes for a peaceful Christmas. Susan
Beautiful home. So warm and fresh😊
Such a beautiful home. And I did indeed enjoy a cup of tea as you showed us around :-).
thank you Libby. Ha ha so glad you had a cuppa too!
I never tire of seeing Dolly's sweet mug!
Allie Mackey me neither 😉💕💕
What a beautiful home you have, Jessica. I started following your blog recently and really like the way you write. I live in London and just moved from an apartment into a house which feels like home. I’d love to eventually move out into the countryside and your home is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing this video
Thank you so much!
Such a lovely home and town....🥰❤
You have such a beautiful home! Light, airy and so cozy, it's my ideal interior design for a home. Thanks for sharing!
really enjoyed this thx jessica, my husband is like u and dreams of moving from manchester city to somewhere more rural, i'm the one whos always lived in a city but i'm slowly coming round to his way of thinking :-) this was a really great insight into a rural area, the cottage doesn't have to be really tiny but can be enough as u have shown so thx again , looking forward to more of your content now that i've discovered u and subscribed! xx
Such a lovely, cozy place to call home! And that beautiful countryside! Thank you for sharing with us. xx 😻
thank you! You're so welcome, glad you enjoyed it x
This is a really beautiful home, considered but cosy. I love the natural branch used for a curtain pole, such a good idea! I have used a branch in my home to hang my airplants from, it's nice to bring nature indoors.
Stunning...pure bliss🙏
I love your take on minimalism and your intentionality.
I love the your cottage, the stool and tub both are gorgeous.
It's so refreshing to hear someone who is more into skin care and not makeup.
I believe that makeup is one of the biggest rip offs of womens money, skin and authenticity that there is.
Probably invented by a man like stilettos, hair dye etc.
All the things that can have a negative impact on women's health.
The most beautiful and healthy skin is skin that is well hydrated, well nourished and just water and exfoliation cleansed.
Thank you for sharing.
Your home is just beautiful and so calm ! It relaxes me just to watch the video so it must be wonderful to live there
thanks so much. Have to pinch myself most days
Fine and simple!
Such a beautiful house! It looks so calm and serene. I really love the kitchen and how you have everything out on display x
thanks Clementiene. Our old house had everything hidden away but I found it a bit too 'clean' ha ha. I love how I can see and find everything really quickly with open shelves x
Lovely cottage. thank you for sharing.x
Glad you enjoyed it
Love your home! 😊I wish it was so easy with kids.. the toys try to take over! Would love to see your minimal skin care and make up bag! 😊
thank you! Oh I can imagine. Skin care routine coming really soon x
I always get inspired by your home
Oh this is so lovely and cute. I love it
Beautiful cottage. Love the white everywhere, I have white walls everywhere too.
Thanks so much Suzy
I absolutely love every single room! I bought my first home almost 2 years ago and we ate nowhere near to being done. I look forward to purging even more now, except clothes and kitchen wares ;)
Cozy home ! I loved it
Your home and land looks like a dream
