Emmerdale's Sandra and Paddy's cosy life off-screen in rustic cottage

Emmerdale star, Joanne Mitchell, certainly lives a life that is worlds apart from that of her on-screen character, Sandra Flaherty. She shares a cosy cottage with her co-star husband, Dominic Brunt - who plays Paddy Kirk.

Joanne's character is currently embroiled in a dramatic storyline, where Sandra is trying to come between daughter, Liv, and her husband Vinny. In a recent episode, she was even trying to set Vinny up with Gabby.

Joanne joined Emmerdale back in 2016 and has been an off-and-on character ever since. But, when she is not busy acting, she's snuggled up in a rustic cottage with Dominic.

The couple's beautiful home often appears on Joanne's Instagram account. Featuring traditional cottage touches such as stone walls throughout, alongside an open-style kitchen complete with white tables and wooden countertops, RSVPLive reports.

Wooden beams adorn the ceiling of the warm and cosy living room, which houses a large open fireplace and a cast iron stove. It is every bit the homely cottage, that you can imagine snuggling up in on a cold winters eve.

Joanne and Dominic have added their own personal touches to the home, with a red patterned sofa and colourful cushions. And it is not just comfy for humans, as their four-legged companions also seem to love it.

Photos show the couple's dogs and a cat cosying up in the beautiful home, which gives off a warm and welcoming feel. However, they have added some more modern touches - including an at-home cinema room, perfect for film lovers.

The family enjoy watching films and have a bookcase stuffed to the brim with DVDs. They can kick back in the rows of cinema seats and enjoy a movie or two.
