In Sense and Sensibility, Barton Cottage, though modest and far from the grandeur of Norland Park, has a simple, unpretentious charm. Nestled in the countryside, its cozy rooms and quaint atmosphere reflect a quiet beauty that comes from love and family rather than luxury. In much the same way, this month’s square with simple eyelet pleats captures understated elegance.
