The best bathroom
Introduce a touch of luxury to the bathroom your guests will use, such as flowers and candles

HOME ADVICE #4
SOME people are lucky enough to have en suite guest rooms, where visitors can luxuriate in private, but keen hosts can do their best to make even the shared family bathroom welcoming. A private bathroom or that shared with the family can be spruced up. Obviously, you have provided towels for your guests but they will need a place to hang them when damp. If they’re going into the family bathroom, tell your children they’re not to use them. Provide some welcoming touches such as
special soaps, shampoos and conditioners. It’s also kind to put out some sort of mosquito repellent. (I once found a guest standing on the bed, hoovering mosquitoes off the ceiling.) Have spare toilet rolls handy. Make sure the bathroom is scrupulously clean, including the mirrors and loos. Put a vase of flowers on a shelf and a scented candle beside the bath.
