About the family kitchen


When we moved into this house in August 1997 the kitchen was extremely basic, pretty non-existent even. We installed the Aga-cooker, the organic heart of the new kitchen, in November 1998 and built the rest of the furniture around it.
Before the Aga came, we put in new wooden flooring : lovely to walk on on bare feet and one hardly ever breaks anything, when one accidentally drops something.
All larger kitchen appliances (fridge, dishwasher, washing machine, tumbledryer) are in the scullery*, adjacent to the kitchen, and out of sight.


* This scullery was in fact the 'kitchen' before we moved in and converted the main dining room into our family kitchen.
