Clitheroe as I wanted to ensure they were done to the highest standard and knew my trusted suppliers would be able to recreate the colours I was inspired by when I visited the beautiful island.”

Lucy has curated a design concept centred around the view. From the furniture down to the bedding, all sourced locally the villa features pearl grey velvet sofas, brightly coloured hanging fabrics and abstract artwork that brings the Caribbean colours to life in the form of parrots, palms trees and exotic birds.

The furniture, button back sofas, chairs and display cabinets was supplied from Feblands in Blackpool, or local upholster Paul Salthouse in Preston.

“Seeing her vision come to life from the moment she arrived has been a pleasure and I’m confident that she has created something that a truly discerning owner will fall in love with.”
