A Guide To Country Kitchen Tiles

What better way to let the joys of summer into your home than with a décor style that evokes nature's tones and textures?

This quick guide will offer some tips and suggestions, so you can bring the outdoors in, in the most stylish ways possible!

Mix it up

A countryside landscape is a beautiful patchwork of shades, and you can create a stunning and unique finish in your home by laying a floor with natural variance.

Consider tiles that have been specially made to give the look of handcrafted terracotta such as these, for a subtle difference between each tile that'll give a beautiful natural result.

When it comes to echoing the outside world in your home, you can't better solid wood flooring. The natural tones and shades will create a look that will never go out of style and - with flooring this authentic - you won't have to do much else to get the county-house look in your home.

For a more dramatically varying finish, how about creating a mosaic on your kitchen wall? The natural shades in this mosaic are ideal, and, with unlimited fixing patterns, yours will be a wall like no other!

Be nostalgic

If you want to add the regal look of a country manor to your kitchen walls, you can create a beautiful, classic finish with some carefully-chosen farmhouse kitchen wall tiles. For a light and airy look with a difference, choose white tiles baring delicately coloured designs.

When you've decided on a colour scheme, be sure to echo it in other elements of your kitchen: anything from light fittings to stools to utensils make perfect places to add that splash of colour that'll bring the look together. For cohesion take time to chose our perfect country kitchen floor.

Don't be shy - go bright

You don't have to stick to creams, greys and browns to get an authentic natural look: duck egg blue, sage green and lavender are all great colours for a country cottage kitchen - and a splash of bright colour on walls or kitchen units will allow you to go for even richer flooring, without leaving the space looking dark.

Caramel-coloured flooring such as our Compton Sand Tile will give a luxurious finish that's wonderfully homely too - the perfect balancing act with brighter décor.
