Country Living Magazine

Who Reads It, and Who Advertise their Products in it?

Country Living Magazine is a Glossy, monthly lifestyle magazine devoted to all aspects of rural living. It's pages are crammed with editorial pieces such as the latest seasonal flower arrangements, advice on the perfect cake, and everything you need to know about orchards. Country Living articles are written in a friendly, grown-up style.

At the same time as being very traditional Country Living has a really modern touch. There are pages of beautifully photographed landscapes, and country cottages. Then in contrast there are articles on contemporary cooking, and pictures of wonderful modern architecture. But Country Living manages to make these elements complement each other.
