House Beautiful

I have been buying this magazine for simply ages. It's one of my must buys (especially now that we are imminent to move house). The style of the magazine appeals to around the 25-45 age group and the interiors and products featured are modern, bright, and cheerful. They are also not out of the average person's price range (which you irritatingly find in some of the home style mags). You always get at least a couple of competitions each month one of which has a 'major' prize, for example £10,000 makeover. Contents include real homes. property and finance, furnishings, gardening features etc. It's a tops publication it really is. ...  Read the complete review

I do not actually own a house of my own but I got this free with a voucher from the Sunday Express. It usually costs £2.30 so I thought I would have a nosey to see what it was about. All together there was 188 pages in the June 2001 issue. A few of these were adverts but most of it was packed with information. If I had a house I would buy this magazine more often as it contains some good tips on how to turn your house into something special. The magazine contains information on shopping, people and houses, furnishings and decorating, gardens, food and drink and property and finance. In the furnishing and decorating section I found some very ...  Read the complete review

Having recently bought my own home I'm keen to get it looking exactly how I want, with my own personal touches, so, for ideas, I went out and bought a few interior design/home decoration magazines. One of which was House Beautiful, and I have to say it was one of the best. The price was pretty reasonable for this type of magazine (£2.10) and it's packed full of ideas from whole rooms to the little tiny objects that fill them. All items featured have excellent photographs, the price and where you can purchase them. And they all seem to be fairly reasonable which is quite refreshing! But it's not just filled with endless pictures of rooms and cushions and ...  Read the complete review

I've subscribed to House Beautiful for a number of years now and always pay less than the advertised subscription price. How? Well, the subscriptions department picked up my details from the magazine's competitions I entered and telephoned me with a special offer, which has continued ever since! I definitely like the contents of House Beautiful and the discounted price makes it even better value for money. The competitions and giveaways are always good quality and the features are always useful and inspiring. Everytime I decorate, I pick up the editions at the time and use them to help me plan. More often than not, I'll find products and ideas to help me ...  Read the complete review
