About Me

My photo
Southern Highlands, NSW
Welcome to my world. I am a young Shi Tzu puppy who lives in considerable comfort at Lynwood Farm with THEM. I’m fascinated by the way people live - in the rooms they build, the gardens they plant, the treasures they collect and the comfort they create. THEY give me the complete run of the house, so I will be able to show you lots of pictures of life at Lynwood.

Holly wood comes to Sydney

The fireplace in Jim and Robyn Holts dining area is stacked full of holly wood from Lynwood Farm (you'll see it below) - quite a cute thing as Jim is an actor and Robyn is Robyn Holt of The Renovators fame and currently appearing on The Circle (plus lots of other exciting things.......you'll have to google them both, there is too much to tell for a little one year old shi tzu).
The house is enormously stylish, not surprising considering Robyn's involvement in the magazine fashion & design world, and Jim's creativity and love of collecting.



THEY love going to visit the Holts - not only is the house full of inspiration, it's full of comfort, laughter and - as HE always says - seriously delicious things to eat, Jim is a great cook.




Robyn in front of a marvellous big jar of Autumn leaves........fabulous!




A formidable collection of fashion photographs, reflecting Robyn's years in the magazine industry.







You can see the holly wood here in the fireplace

The Holts have A LOT of pretty things bought back from their time spent in Russia during Robyn's tenure as CEO of Conde Nast there. How pretty is this china ?

Jim in the library - he is quite the Chekhov authority. 



Their beautiful courtyard.

The perfect sponge cake.......delish!
