Home of the Year offers a good excuse for a bit of good-natured interiors voyeurism

Keep chomping on those carrots so your eyes will be in perfect working order for that prolonged annual gaze through the keyhole as Home of the Year returns for a sixth series next week.

It’s always a good excuse for a bit of good-natured interiors voyeurism and among the residences I’m looking forward to checking out are a lighthouse keeper’s cottage as well as converted buildings, including a former carriage house.
