In 1901 Edward Hudson, the founder of Country Life magazine first saw Lindisfarne Castle and fell in love with it.
Hudson was on holiday in Northumberland and had found his perfect holiday home.
Holy Island is the most beautiful of islands, cut off from the mainland by the tide at different times of the day.
He first took out a lease on the Castle and then bought it from the Crown.
Hudson asked his designer friends, Edwin Lutyens for the castle and Gertrude Jekyll for the garden to create for him a wonderful summer home.
Edwin Lutyens was one of the great Arts & Crafts designers of the day, a follower of the Arts & Crafts movement that William Morris founded.
This beautiful wind indicator is the first thing you see coming in through the front door.

Who else loves making their own cards and gifts? ✂️🧵
This sweet anniversary bunny was made with little scraps of our William Morris fabric. It’s proof that even the smallest offcuts can become something really special 💛
With Halloween around the corner and Christmas not far behind, now’s the perfect time to get crafting 🎃🎄 Think appliqué cards, fabric gift tags, lavender bags, bunting, Christmas tree decorations and pretty wrapping for presents 🎁
A handmade gift will always mean so much with the thought and time gone into it, but be sure to start well in advance so you`re not frantically sewing on Christmas Eve! ✨
What are you making this season? Let us below 👇 #handmadecards #fabriccrafts #williammorris #handmadechristmas #laurasbeau
Ever wondered why our fabrics look so good up close? 🔍✨
Every one of our William Morris designs is digitally printed and manufactured right here in the UK, and here’s why we love it:
🎨 Incredible detail. Every tiny petal, berry and feather comes out crisp and true to the original design. The colours are consistent and gorgeous.
🌈 Rich, accurate colours that stay just as vibrant as the artwork intended when Morris designed them
🌿 Kinder to the planet. Digital printing typically uses far less water than traditional methods, and we print in smaller batches, so there’s less waste.
🇬🇧 Supporting British makers. A shorter supply chain means we keep skills, jobs and quality close to home.
It’s a modern way to bring timeless designs into your home 💛
