American Vogue: This British Country Getaway Is Packed With Whimsical Interiors—That You Can Now Take Home With You

“On a recent visit to Thyme in early spring, I soon discovered that the dialogue between the hotel and its surroundings is infused into every aspect of your stay.”

“The spirit of the rooms is unabashedly maximalist: pink phloxes overlaid upon further pink phloxes, offset with custom-made dusty pink headboards courtesy of a local furniture maker; or the deep, ravishing purple of elderberry leaves covering every wall to create a rhythmic repeating pattern that manages to be strangely soothing rather than overly busy.”

“Elsewhere, Thyme’s culinary offering was similarly impressive, not just because the food here is universally delicious—which it is—but for the thoughtfulness and attention to detail that has clearly informed every choice.”

“After being guided to a dedicated “botanical bothy” outbuilding—a hammam-like space with tables crafted from natural resin, and an outdoor bathtub and private garden to enjoy a sage and honey tea while soaking post-treatment—I was led on a genuinely transformative ritual that began with a breathing exercise aided by a fragrant balm, featuring river mint and eucalyptus inspired by the nearby water meadow.”
