How to Decorate Your Home in Cozy Cottage Style

Design by Becca Interiors

Cottages are some of the coziest homes around. Tucked away in idyllic locations—like the mountains or the beach—these petite getaways are endlessly charming. While their small size plays a role in their warm and welcoming feel, their décor is even more responsible.

“Cottage-style décor is all about creating a comfortable and casual space designed for easy living,” Sarah Fischer, principal designer of Sarah & Sons Interiors, says. “It has roots in traditional design, but is softened from age and use.”

Cottage style is packed with traditional prints, cozy furnishings, and handed-down treasures, and it has a way of making everyone feel at home. While cottage-style décor is most popular in cottages, you can get the cozy look in any home. To help you turn your space into a charming getaway, we asked four designers to share their favorite cottage-style décor ideas.

“Since cottages were often second homes, cottage décor includes a mix of styles and patterns—as if furnishings were handed down from different family members,” Fischer says. So, forgo the matching furniture sets and piece together a charming collection of antiques and flea market finds.

Set the tone in your cozy cottage by sticking with soft, welcoming colors.

“Cottage-style décor is happy, casual, and charming,” Amy Peltier, creative director of Amy Peltier Interior Design, says. “Make sure the space is light and bright, and use pastel and airy colors to bring comfort to your space.”

Cottages are designed with easy living in mind, so favor materials that will add form and function to your home. “Consider beadboard and wood paneling as part of the millwork to add character that can withstand bumps and dents,” Fischer says.

The best cottages don’t just look charming—they also feel incredibly cozy. So, stock up on soft, inviting furniture. “Favor ultra-comfortable furnishings that are very lounge-worthy,” Ginger Curtis, principal designer of Urbanology Designs, says.

One of the hallmarks of cottage style? “Creative use of cozy spaces,” Fischer says. Sure, your home may be roomier than the average cozy cottage, but there are bound to be a few tight spaces you can transform into charming alcoves.

When filling your cottage with vintage furniture, try to use old items in new ways. “Bring your aunt’s dresser into the mudroom for additional storage,” Fischer says. “Or, turn]an old tool bench into the perfect kitchen island.”

Prints and patterns add personality to any cottage—just be sure to keep your picks traditional. “I love a blend of buffalo check patterns, mixed with stripes and block prints,” Mary Maloney, owner of Bee’s Knees Interior Design Studio, says.

Make your home look like a cottage from top to bottom by leaving your ceiling beams exposed. “I love to add rustic beams to a bright white ceiling for a look that screams cozy cottage,” Curtis says.

In any hand-me-down-filled space, you’re bound to end up with texture, so lean into the look. “My favorite way to achieve cottage style pieces is through charming details, such as floral patterns, organic textures, sisal rugs, and woven materials,” Peltier says.

As you decorate your space, soften your sleekest pieces with plush cushions, chunky blankets, and other cozy accents. “Layer on cute and cozy furnishings—think: charming nostalgia,” Peltier says.

Cottages aren’t exclusively filled with old items. “Typically, it is an eclectic look—a blend of old and new,” Maloney says. Balance out your favorite vintage pieces with a few modern accents.

Katie Martinez Design

When stocking up on vintage pieces, designers agree: Stick with genuine antiques. “To prevent cottage décor from veering into country kitsch, run away from the brand new furniture sets with faux distressing,” Fischer says. “Find vintage pieces with authentic wear instead.”

13 of 16

Katie Leclercq

“With cottage-style décor, it’s all about the charming details,” Peltier says. So, invest in homey accents—like weathered hardware, vintage hand towels, and lots of fresh flowers.

Katie Leclercq

Don’t get hung up on what a cottage “should” look like. “Cottage décor is all about your unique sense of comfort—and formulaic design won’t get you there,” Fischer says. Instead, focus on designing a space you'll love spending time in. “You'll end up with a style that is authentically your own,” she says.

15 of 16

Ashley Montgomery Design

Stocking up on special pieces is a big part of furnishing a cottage—but editing is, too. “Often, less is more," Curtis says. “Pare back oversized furniture and accessories to truly let special pieces have their moment. ”

16 of 16

Ashley Montgomery Design

“Cottage style has a ‘collected over time’ look and feel,” Curtis says. “Take your time looking for one-of-a-kind pieces.”

At the end of this "treasure hunt," you’ll have a charmingly curated space that looks and feels truly special.

How to Design a Cozy Cottage-Style Interior

Comfortable—and Comforting

Photo by Eric Roth

More infused with a spirit than put together according to a set of rules, cottage-style interiors have a happy informality. Rooms are airy and intimate at the same time, with nooks and alcoves that offer both curl-up daydreaming spots and space-saving built-in storage—after all, who can relax if there's clutter all around? From colorful weathered paint to warm stained wood, finishes are touchable rather than hands-off and only get better with age. These spaces often get a dose of nostalgic charm from vintage-look fixtures and fittings, hardware, and woodwork details that seem to turn back the clock on today's high-stress, high-tech lifestyle. Most any place can use a helping of cottage coziness, as long as the goal is to create an inviting interior with a carefree, well-lived-in look. Here and on the following pages, we highlight some key features that you can borrow to give your own home that uplifting, easygoing feeling.

Sturdy Walls

Photo by Eric Roth

Wood planks, like this beadboard, stand up to dings and dents. Traditional white paint brightens the room.

Handy Built-Ins

Photo by Eric Roth

A wine rack and a storage cabinet tucked under the stairs maximize floor space; wood panels take the chill off modern stainless-steel appliances.

Warm Details

Photo by Eric Roth

Bin pulls, a deep apron sink, a vintage-style faucet, and painted open shelves with wood brackets give a kitchen casual charm.

Handsome Floors

Photo by Eric Roth

Whether stained or painted, wood underfoot adds warmth and texture. These wide pine boards show off their handsome natural grain.

Built-Ins: Capitalized Space

Step through the door or walk around the corner and what do you discover? Tucked-in shelving and furniture that ingeniously make use of every nook and cranny.

Dormer Desk

Even the simplest built-in can add a big dose of personality in a snug space. Here, a writing surface made from wall cleats and 2 boards spans a tight spot in an attic, turning a low-clearance corner into a light-filled workstation with a view.

Built-Ins: Mini Mudroom

Photo by Eric Roth

An awkward entry gains practical charm with a tower of open shelves, top cabinets with tilt-up doors, and a bench with curved supports. Simple battens hold coat hooks. Durable paneling and a soft shade of green paint knit the pieces together.

Built-ins: Alcove Bunk Beds

Photo by Polly Wreford/Loupe Images

What could be cozier? Stacked twin beds get a character boost from an arched enclosure. This pair is finished with wood paneling and white paint that tie in with the rest of the room. Books find a home on shelves at the head of each bed; extra linens hide in the lower bunk's deep drawers.

Built-Ins: Storage Niche

Photo by Wendell T. Webber

Tucked between wall studs and just below the eaves, a beadboard-lined, trimmed-out cubby provides a perfect spot for extra towels in a diminutive powder room.

Built-Ins: Away-From-It-All Bench

Photo by Devis Bionaz/GAP Interiors

A narrow three-season room benefits from seating that's tailor-made for the space. Drawers hold outdoor decor; a colorful cushion, throw pillows, and a patterned rug offer a comfy place for a private moment.

Painted Wood Floors

Photo by Johnny Bouchier/GAP Interiors

Playful color and pattern underfoot add a lighthearted touch—and a finished surface that wears its age well.

Spruced-Up Steps

A coat of fresh white paint sets the staircase apart from khaki walls and stained wood floors; old-fashioned numbers stenciled onto each riser add a welcoming bit of whimsy.

Painted Wood Floors: Extended Up The Walls

Photo by David Palmer/IPC Images

Sage-green paint unifies the pine floorboards with the baseboards and wainscoting, lending this bare-bones bath a serene, airy feeling.

Painted Wood Floors: Colorful Checkerboard

Large squares of sunny yellow and soft cream change the mood of a living space instantly—no further upgrades needed. Added bonus: Paint is a nice way to disguise flaws on old floorboards.

See the step-by-step instructions for how to paint a checkerboard floor.

Planked Walls

Photo by Douglas Gibb/GAP Interiors

Back in the day, wood boards made cheap and durable walls for hard-working rooms. The look has endured, thanks to its casual, homey appeal.

To The Ceiling

Machine-milled beadboard took off in Victorian times for kitchens, baths, and work areas. Running the entire height of the walls, as well as up the banquette, it's still an eye-catching, easy-care surface for a busy dining nook.

Planked Walls: Wraparound Wainscoting

Photo by Simon Whitmore/IPC Images

This beadboard wainscot is capped with a flat rail that acts as a shelf for toiletries, keeping them within easy reach. The material also wraps the tub surround and is painted the same spring green for a cheery, built-in look.

Planked Walls: Run Side to Side

Installing boards horizontally suits the proportions of this long, narrow bedroom. The same planks are used on the ceiling, creating a pleasant sense of enclosure; an all-white palette makes the small space feel bright.

Vintage Details

Well crafted and practical, period-look woodwork, fixtures, fittings, and hardware add a personal touch—and a sense of history—to informal spaces.

Open Shelves

Nothing's better for keeping everyday dishes close at hand. Oversize brackets lend these shelves a handcrafted feel; screw-in hooks put colorful cups on display.

Vintage Details: Wall-Hung Storage

Photo by David Prince

Old-timey kitchens were smaller. Plate racks and hanging shelf units took up less room than freestanding hutches and sideboards. This piece's graceful arch, curved brackets, and beadboard back are traditional touches; the cubby organizer updates it for today.

Vintage Details: Interior Shutters

Photo by Christopher Drake/Loupe Images

Originally, operable shutters were used to keep out the sun. Today, they're both functional and decorative. The well-worn paint finish on this pair adds a rustic touch of texture in a simple bedroom.

Vintage Details: Wire Door Panels

Photo by Nick Carter/GAP Interiors

Chicken wire was originally used on pantry doors to let air circulate around stored root vegetables. Installed behind glass fronts, it provides a hint of country charm.

Vintage Details: Cast-Iron Sink

Photo by Thibault Jeanson

Swooping basins with built-in backsplashes and wall-mounted faucets have a handsome utilitarian look. This oversize double sink anchors a shared bath, offering plenty of room for cleanup after a day's work. The shelf below the mirror makes up for the lack of deck space.

Vintage Details: Claw-Foot Tub

Photo by Heather Lewin/IPC Images

Elevated on ball-and-claw feet, an old-school soaker in porcelain-coated cast iron might just be the height of laid-back style. Plum paint, used on this tub's sides and on the surrounding wainscoting, gives it an updated look that's right at home with dark-stained wood floors.

Vintage Details: Wood Peg Rail

Photo by Julian Wass

In a bath, it's a fuss-free way to hang towels—just toss them there to dry. Throughout the house, peg rails can function as both millwork accents and storage solutions for everything from dish cloths to backpacks.
