The Lund Collection, a one-bedroom private cottage, is the first property designed, owned and operated by Bergman Design House in the Cotswolds. Set to launch this spring, the cottage sits just a short trip from Chipping Norton and Great Tew, offering guests a peaceful respite in the English countryside.

Decorated by a husband-and-wife design duo, the cottage features a curated collection of original artwork and antique pieces, all of which accompanies the new furniture from the studio’s Black Berg Collection. Some of the features include a deep-soaking bathtub, an 18th-century marriage armoire transformed into a drinks cabinet and 17th-century Chinese ceramics.

 

Utilizing inspiration from the four seasons in the countryside, the cottage incorporates colors reminiscent of each season into every detail of the property, from autumn oranges to lively summer greens. The cottage also employed the skills of textile and furniture artisans in the United Kingdom like Upholstory, Robert Kime, Tori Murphy and de Le Cuona to bring even more character to the building.

“What’s been so enjoyable about this project has been the ‘treasure hunt’ for the most incredible antique and vintage finds, all of which tell their own unique story while highlighting the beauty of the newer items next to them,” said Marie Soliman, founder and creative director, Bergman Design House, on the process of creating The Lund Collection. “It’s an approach I like to call ‘organized chaos’; the creation of a space that is both functional and timeless, with a playful hint of surprise or whimsical energy.”

 

The cottage comes with a fully stocked bar, hand-curated welcome basket featuring wines personally curated by Albin, and a state-of-the-art Swedish Moccamaster coffee machine. Nighty rates at the cottage begin at approximately $800 per night.
