the UK back in lockdown, travel restrictions are currently in place once more.<\/h3><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So while we can\u2019t encourage you to explore characterful cottages around the UK just now, we have put a new spin (or perhaps the original spin) on the meaning of the word \u2018staycation\u2019 &#8211; by inspiring you to enjoy everything your own home has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be a daunting thought being asked to stay home for an unknown amount of time, however by bringing a new perspective you can rediscover those little joys of your own home to get you through these difficult times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s what we have aimed to do with our new tongue-in-cheek series of \u2018travel\u2019 posters, helping you to explore the magic of your own home &#8211; from the magic of the TV, to the dream-world of bed, and the relaxing retreat of bath time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope our posters put a smile on your face and help you to enjoy the wonders of your own home through lockdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>The Bed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a
