Inside Sienna Miller's Secluded Country Cottage | Open Door | Architectural Digest
Today Architectural Digest is welcomed to the idyllic English countryside by actor Sienna Miller to visit the centuries-old cottage she's made her home. When she first saw the property in Buckinghamshire, England, she fell for it hard. “It was a time when there was a lot of press attention on me, and I wanted somewhere to escape.” Sienna enlisted her close friend, director Gaby Dellal, to assist in breathing new life into the 16th-century thatched-roof cottage. “The house offers a sanctuary,” says Miller. “It has a nurturing feeling; it is a home with a heart.”

the dust in this place must be mad.

Very beautiful 😍😍
@@777VIV don't worry Siena will not ask you to clean when you visit her..1😂☮️
All the curtains shown in the house are beautiful
This is one of AD's best tours to date. You can tell Sienna has such respect for the history of this home, while still making it her own. Absolutely delightful home!
I was entranced...
Couldn't agree more!
looks like modern weasley's house (harry potter)
@@viharpatel8412 yesssss
Its clean because there’s no Alfie 😄
What a lovely home. It’s refreshing to see a celebrity home that isn’t over the top and is decorated in a cozy manner.
I doubt it’s her only or main home.
I can guarantee you the price is over the top ☺️ but it's beautiful!
It's indeed lovely and very personal but.not made for tall people at all if you are claustrophobic the house might be an issue :-)
I think it is over the top. Over the top bad for a wealthy person like her. Cmon Sienna! This has to be worst celebrity house on AD yet.
Agreed! Cozy and contemporary -- it's nice to see a house that somebody is actually living in it.
It looks like a normal house for once. Very refreshing ❤
Agree, it looks like you could actually live in it.
Probably the first Celebrity home on here I’d 100% pack up and move in just as it is if I was actually able to do that. I am in love with the English Countryside and cottages and this is amazing. What a place to escape the world, when you want and need to. Thank you Sienna for sharing it and AD for showing it to us. Just beautiful in every way.❤️❤️❤️
My goodness. Almost twenty years later and she is still a style icon, knowing exactly what she loves and doesn’t fall to temporary trends. WE LOVE YOU, SIENNA!
It is MORE THAN 20 years. SiEnna began her career in year 2000. She did a credited acting part as "Sharon" in film "SOUTH KENSINGTON" (2001) MEDICI FILMS same year which was 2001. SiEnna has been in the movies nearly 22 years !!
I remember her making her mark as a style icon around 2004. That’s all I meant by that. It’s not my intention to discredit her acting work before then. :)
@@tasjaki OBJECTION She pays her fair share and then some. She also does lots of time in unpaid charity work and charity events with no pay at all. Some of this time is spent it very dangerous locations around the world.
I would say Gabby Dellal is the one that knows what she loves. 🙂 And yes, just like someone answered below or above (not sure) having money gives you the oppportunity to have taste.
@@tasjaki style has nothing to do with money. U cant buy it.
If Sienna Miller ever contribute her voice for an audiobook, I would fell in love with that book. On another note, this is such a cozy home!
OMG! Absolutely!!! Audible pleeeeeease…
I got an ad for an audio book app, so if that’s not a sign she should do it I don’t know what is
I was looking to make this same comment until I saw yours! I listen to so many book narrated by British narrators, I’ve started saying certain words with the British pronunciation, not the American.
Agree, she is a natural
@@rneustel388 pleeeease I would love some audiobooks recs 🤓
Can this be the precedent of more homes and less houses? I am enthralled with this feature and feel so special she decided to share it with us. Such a genuine respect for the house and environment whilst also making it her own. I hope she falls in love with her home over and again, it looks like she already has.
So magical. The child’s bedroom is absolutely a fairy tale room. Lovely!
I love how down to earth and humble she is. The constant sitting down to talk, pointing out spider webs, admitting that a bunch of toys are hidden away for the tour, she has none of that "better than you"/ superior pretense that so many rich and famous people have. What a lovely person and I think her warm, cozy home is a great reflection of her.
Miller is so full of herself. She looks down on others and just thinks she's better than the rest of us. She's one of the biggest jerks/losers alive on the planet today.
Lol.
You're joking, right?!
@@bbmcgee33 I wish that I was. I was stunned, because I thought she was awesome. She's not. I know this firsthand not one of those heard it from somebody.
@@davewhite113 What do you mean?
Her beauty, her voice, her accent, her elegance, the house.. The whole aesthetic is just something soothing One of the very few celebrity houses that actually feels like a home
kzhead.info/sun/Y6qjnLiKg5tmop8/bejne.html
This home has its own style without looking like its just there to be looked at. You can really see her hosting people and having Christmas there. The stories match the look unlike so many others celebrity houses
Hands down the best AD Open Door I've seen. Just gorgeous.
The "Hobbitiness" of this cottage is exactly what makes it so magically sublime. Wonderful, AD!
exactly this. it is beautiful in all the right places.
@@iHasCaek My thoughts too. Looks quite charming.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Bah. Go back to your pit, preacher.
This is beautiful 😍😍
This is a breath of fresh air when it comes to celebrity homes. It's so nice to see mis-matched prints, old sentimental furniture, a small and cosy space that is old and lived in... surrounded by nature! Beautiful
I love her cottage and how cozy everything was - the vibe is definitely relaxing! She seems so down-to-earth as well! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Sienna kept saying the word, magical, and this is what her charming, relaxed and delightful home is. She is a natural and casual beauty and her home reflects that. There wasn't one thing that I did not like about her cottage.
The only thing I would change would be lower the ceiling in her bedroom she said she raised I'm 6'4" but love tiny homes and small compact living spaces like the kids room
I love love love English countryside, would move there in a heartbeat. Beautiful cottage!
Love the privacy and the greenery surrounding the edges. More people need to leave areas of their property natural. It provides more food and shelter for bees, butterflies, birds and other creatures. Green lawns have little benefit for nature other than being better than asphalt. People need to live with nature and not try to replace it.
Yes my country home is surrounded my bushes, trees and foliage and it’s beautiful to see the bees buzzing around it
I would love that in most places, but as I’m from the southern states all I can think of is fleas, ticks, and chiggers!
Forgot to mention the fire ants which will happily move into your automobile!
Amen
@@catofthecastle1681 Nature's way of telling you to find somewhere else!
So quaint and cozy. I wouldn’t change a thing. It is my kind of home. I love privacy. I can see why Sienna can relax there. I would be curled up in front of the fire reading a book with a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate-depending on the time of day-or outside wandering the grounds. Just so calming.
I love that she is so unfussy...the kitchen table looks well loved, she sits on the arm of the sofa, she has her mom and dads old arm chair, stuffs her sweater back on the shelf. LOVE the reading nook! The yard is fittingly English cottage-beautiful! I would LOVE to sleep in the 'outhouse'. 1 1/2 acres is a perfect size. My second home we built on 5 1/2 acres and it was so much work to keep up. Sienna has a lovely refreshing home...very much like herself.
Her home is indeed her sanctuary. Love how she cherishes the chair, piano, art and other things from family, friends and new friends. She comes across has very genuine, thoughtful and sincere. She's a gem.
This feels like a proper home, full of real life objects and memories! Love it!
@𝔖𝔬𝔣𝔦𝔞 ℭ𝔞𝔰𝔞𝔰 And that is exactly what it is also.
I love how a person of such fame, possibility and wealth can say that "being at home, laying in bed or in the bath and listening to the birds is as happy as she can ever be" Truly humble.
Because she's not living in a sheet whole
In less than 2 minutes I already know that this is one of my favourite homes I have seen on AD! Sienna is down to earth and not like all the other celebs we see on here. Everything is cosy, welcoming, not pretentious. She even has a simple, standard Breville kettle that most people have in their homes that you can get for about £35! It shows that she appreciates the simple things in life. A truly welcoming home.
The most beautiful home tour yet from this series.
Yes, I agree.
There is always this comment on every video
N°2 for me. N°1 is Lenny Kravit's home, N°3 is Sharapova's home.
@@cryptopoussin2721 1. troye sivan 2. dakota johnson 3. this one
A Beautiful home and she won me over with "We've hidden loads of the toys, none of this house ever looks this tidy but that's the beauty of making a film" love the honesty ♥
One of the best, cosy, self-identified,human scale, free of frills interior of a celebrity on AD channel. Respect and congratulations . Love, love, love it❤❤❤❤!
When I think of effortlessly cool, I think of Sienna. This delightful home tour only adds to my admiration. I love all the cunning touches, like the sheepskin on the headboard, the curtain by the railing, the closet full of jumpers. The separate guesthouse is lovely (I am madly in love, may I PLEASE come visit!?) She speaks of her home with such warmth and pleasure, and you can tell how relaxed she is in the space. I love when she sat down on the sofa, and then later flopped onto the guest bed. What a pleasure this was to experience. Well done to Gaby Delall, Sienna, and the AD Productions crew!
I watch any AD home walkthrough that comes out and this one has got to be my absolute favorite. 💖💖
Because a lot of them are weird and look like ice cold museums instead of a home people want to live in…
It's one of my favourite videos on KZhead, not just this channel...
As a gardener, that landscaping is to die for!😍🌸 and the sustainability aspect is amazing with meadow,wildlife pond and flower abundance🌸🌸🌸😍😍😍
Agreed! I hope I have enough property one day to do a meadow, especially since so many of the US's native drought resistant flowers are perfect for meadows
Sienna speaks with such warmth about people- really talks to me about the kind of person she is. and yes, this seems like home and not just a dwelling
This is the perfect, idyllic dream home for me. I love coming back to this video now and again because it awakens so much joy and love inside of me.
I feel like this house perfectly captures the style that I want for my future home - an earthy, cozy cottage surrounded by lots of nature, with touches of bright colours and modern pieces throughout
The fact that she has a meadow it's so beautiful and healthy and amazing for the bees! One of my favorite tours!
Hands down one of the best ever celebrity homes that AD has featured across different countries. Such a beautiful magical vibe. I so want to go and stay in this house. So approachable. So natural. No plasticy glossy stuff that rich people put. Very understated yet so beautiful. The designer she mentioned also has done an amazing job. If only I was friends with Sienna 😬
Of all the houses I've seen on AD, I think this is the one I would prefer to live in. So lovely and snug
I absolutely love what Sienna has done with such an amazing historical cottage. It's just wonderful, Sienna has her own little Shire.
The way she talks about her house, you can tell how much she loves it. Fells very authentic!
I love how she has persevered the history in the home whilst adding her own unique touches. So beautiful!
She cant legally do anymore renovation on it.
What a beautiful, magical space. Both Sienna and the house are utterly charming. This is my favourite AD tour!
Nice to see a real house, instead of the cold and soulless prestige / status mega mansions we usually get to "admire". Great garden too, very well done Sienna!
This is SUCH a lovely home. These videos are always so much better when you can see how much personality is in the house, how much of themselves people put into the place. I love how the pieces have their history and everything in the house seems to be used and loved. THIS over any other BH celebrity mansion ever shown on the channel.
What I love about sienna is she is just soo down to earth
Probably one of the most gorgeous women on the planet. I could look & listen to her all day. She’s so down to earth and is true to herself. 😍
Oh. My. Word. This is the most gorgeous place I've ever seen. It's cozy, welcoming ,yes magical .. a home in the truest sense of the word. It's not pretentious.. It just... Is. Wonderful!!!
There's warmth in this this house it truly looks like a home.
There’s something so nostalgic and comforting having a _huge_ fireplace in a room like that being the central focal point of a big room where everyone can just socialize. When she mentioned how she puts the Christmas tree in the corner and having the piano there, I can just imagine how comfortable that must be at Christmas time. Beautiful cottage, not extravagant and not over the top. I would love to retire full time in a home like this.
It truly felt like one of those Hallmark movies in my mind's eye; it was so easy to imagine everything she was saying, almost hear the fire crackling
I feel so calm just looking at this house. Thanks Sienna for sharing your beautiful homely cottage with us all.
This reminds me of the English cottage in the movie The Holiday, which has always been my dream home! Truly magical, it looks so cozy and peaceful.
The house in The Holiday movie was created, it does not exist in England. Sienna's thatched property is located in Berkshire :)
@@spirituallysafe I know it doesn't exist, I meant they have similar cozy vibes
I thought the same! ❤
I had to pause the video to comment and say that this is once if the most beautifully cozy and decorated homes I’ve ever seen. Stunning.
This is a quintessential English cottage. Quite fitting for someone as beautiful has Sienna.
Great to see someone genuinely LOVE and appreciate what they have and yet well aware that her greatest treasure is her child!
This house is, as she said “magical”! Just love the whole vibe
A lot of perfect imperfections make such a charm in this cottage
Hi! What a gorgeous picture you've on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi 😃. I hope my compliment is appreciated 🌹
After downsizing into a 1,000 sq ft house from a 3500 sq ft house, I’ve come to the conclusion small homes are 1000000000% better than big homes. So cozy, warm, and comfortable….and easier to clean! ❤️ I LOVE this cottage. Reminds me of the cottage in The Holiday.
It's cosy, historic, chic, personal, just so many good things rolled into one. Always been a fan of Sienna Miller but now totally in love with her interior style as well. Gorgeous.
I love her Mum's pink and floral chair and the woolly drop down curtain. There are a lot of good ideas here to get the cottage look, including an espresso machine and beautiful stove. Sienna is a lovely hostess.
Perfect example of how to mix adorable cottage charm, for the 21st century...cozy yet with modern touches throughout, help to keep us in the here and now. Just wonderful.
I adore this Cottage!! I love cozy and warm and homey, where you can actually relax and rest and it is magical. In love!
One of the best and most authentic AD tours I've ever seen. Thank you Sienna for a truly engaging presentation of your home! So cuddly & cozy!
Love British homes. She is so stylish and fun.
I love cottages and cabins. There's an intimacy, warmth, and mystique that surrounds them. Sienna's cottage is not huge but spacious.
what a beautiful place. I could listen to Sienna all day.
Finally someone down to earth on this channel
My favourite Open Door thus far. Timeless, classic style.
What a cozy and sophisticated home! I would make this my permanent home!
I loved every moment of this. Of course I had to freeze the video at key moments just to look further into the detail. I love how simple but beautiful this cottage is. You can tell how much this means to Sienna from the joy she brings through her voice. It's such a contrast to when I watch some North American shows where people are looking for real estate outside of their country. They complain so much about how much room there isn't- especially in the master bedroom. I've known adults in my country who have given up the 'master' bedroom so their kids can have more room. One of my friends used to sleep in the spare room (barely the size of a walk-in pantry). Her bed was just a mattress on the floor with clothes hanging above her head. There were no complaints about this by my friend. What a contrast! Just like this cottage and Sienna's attitude to it- a complete breath of fresh air!
Everything about this video was warm, easy, natural, cozy, and inviting! So great to not have pretense in interior design, just inspiration from everyday real.
Now, this is a real house. I expected no less from Sienna Miller. It's warm and cozy - the way a home should be.
What a perfect house. Maybe one of those houses I would move into without wanting to change anything
Same!! Maybe I would put fresh paint, but I could move right in.
The simplicity of life is beautiful. ❤ Sienna Millers home is a reminder to enjoy life and just breathe. It’s refreshing!
Love her taste. The cottage is so inviting
Wow! A house with character and personality! Seeing that Sienna worked with what the house had to offer is so refreshing and relatable.
So cozy, simple, and well-appointed with things that are intentional. Nothing over the top. Simply enchanting.
Charming, beautiful, stylish, comfortable, engaging and real (the cottage is brilliant too) :)
What I love about this house is how cozy and homey it is. All the houses I see here are beautiful, but it's hard to feel like anybody really lives there -- like that's their space. This one looks lived in and has her personal style.
Had this on in the background while cleaning, I had to stop and watch the whole episode. Sienna's soothing voice and down to earth nature is so refreshing to see. The sentimental items make the home so charming and warm, I feel like I'm being shown around by a friend. Thank you for showing us your lovely home and family 🥰
This cottage is a breath of fresh air. Makes me want to do the same in my home!
I love how really lived-in this house is. Usually the AD tours are too perfect or the same style essentially as all the others, but this one feels authentic and sweet.
i ABSOLUTELY love this home. and also the fact that there's a really cute garden where wild plans are just flourishing ughhh
“A house with a soul” I’m falling in love with it too, such a cosy house 😍🤩 can’t get any of those features with the new builds 😆
Love this home, it speaks to comfort and beauty. I love her voice so much!
I love how gracefully she introduced her daughter. Kept her non discreet but gave a glimpse of how their relationship is. Love the lady witches dancing above the bed. Yass queen/ you go girl/ right on/ rad/ cool/ groovy sexy cool TLC
Oh my god, this is my favorite celebrity house from AD! Love her style so much!
This is such a warm charming “little-ish” home. You just want to live in there and be lost and not be found by no one. Truly love that feeling I got from this home and Sienna made it feel so chic too.
Sienna, six bedrooms is not small, though I do love your Mansion Cottage! What a great find. It is simply beautiful!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Watching it a second time realising how stunning and charming yet sophisticated this home is
Gorgeous, comfortable home. It reminds me of the type of unpretentious, well-thought-out and meaningful places one would regularly see in AD back when I first became a subscriber some 40 years ago. I hope this is a sign that more will be forthcoming.
This was such a cozy, comfortable home. I feel like one can really relax and enjoy the peacefulness of the environment.
This has got to be one of the most beautiful, comfortable, unique places I have ever seen!
Lovely cottage with a very cozy feeling. The home has a lot of character and you can tell that she enjoys her home with her love ones . She knows everything about the house unlike other celebrity whose home were all about the aesthetic but no meaning or feelings attached to it. She is her own style and doesn’t give in to trends. Love the stove range … will be getting one soon. 💕
So lovely… such a cozy home, really unpretentious and warm. Exactly what I would imagine an “ideal” British country home would look like!
Stunning. Nice to see a tasteful, liveable, yet inspirational home in here.
love the coziness and simplicity
My favorite AD tour. So cozy and takes you to another time before the internet.
Sienna’s home reminds me of Kate Winslet’s home from the movie “The Holiday.” SO charming!
Yes!!!!
Love to see someone taking care of and treasuring a historical house
I love her confidence & her energy - ah, so worth emulating!
Thank you for the tour. Such a lovely cosy home. I don’t know much about Sienna or her films etc... but she seems to be a genuinely nice person. I wish her continuing luck and happiness... if only more people could be so down to earth 🌸🌾
This actually looks like a HOME! Sienna is such a great person, so warm and grounded, and she seems truly happy in this house.
She has many.. this is about a tenth the size of a few...
