I agree with campo, I would try to ensure the the colour complements the rooms leading off of it. The hall appears a little dark so you could have a look at the warm neutrals by either little Greene or farrow and ball and add colour with art and/or an oriental runner which would suit the house. Or as you love colour maybe paint the walls in ochre (there are some nice shades of it around atm) but I would team with white woodwork in that case as a contrast to the floor

Good morning All very good suggestions above. You will need to consider all. My suggestion is to paint the downpipes that is on the light grey stone in Purbeck Stone of Farrow and Ball and the downpipes on the brick coloured stone in Book room red of Farrow and ball. The reason for this is: Downpipes want to be camouflaged as it is not a feature of the house at all. You want to paint them a colour that will 'hide' them and not make them stand out. The front door I would paint in hague blue of Farrow and Ball. You will however need to get a Farrow and Ball Card and match it with your stone in order to get the right tones for the stone, red and navy colour. I would probably paint the window frames in Worsted of Farrow and Ball. I hope this helps. Please ask if you need more help. Have a lovely day to you all. Ilze

So, I decided on Elephants breath and here it is. I am really pleased with it. That’s the curtains on the bed ( until the paint dries). So, now for a duvet cover, cushions and throw. Any thoughts? The curtains have a creamy detail so not sure that white will work, and anyhow probably not practical with 2 dogs in the house!!
