Inside Helen Skelton's lavish country cottage with marble kitchen and two acre garden

Helen Skelton showed off glorious views of the countryside this morning, sharing footage of her children enjoying some time outdoors in the sunshine before heading to school.

The presenter, 39, took to Instagram earlier to post a video that showed three kids playing in a garden as she panned around to showcase sprawling views of the countryside.

The Countryfile host - who's training for the new series of Strictly Come Dancing - has previously shown off parts of her home in Yorkshire after relocating to the renovation project in 2020.

She lives there with her three children - Ernie, seven, Louis, five, and Elsie, eight months. Her husband Richie Myler, 32, lived with them until the couple separated earlier this year.

Announcing their separation, Helen revealed in April that Richie had left the family home, leaving her and their kids to live in the lavish property, located in Yorkshire, without him.

The presenter has shared glimpses of the home on social media in the past, with the cottage featuring an open-plan living area that includes a kitchen island and stylish decor.

There is a gold feature wall above the cooker, which is complimented by the teal units, marble worktops and gold fixtures. Wooden furniture adds a rustic touch to the room.

The living area includes a cosy bay window and log burner, and the family can relax on a sofa to watch TV - with them just a few steps away from the kitchen area.

The interior of the home includes exposed brickwork in some areas and the living area was part of an extensive renovation project that Helen and Richie undertook after buying the home.

The bathroom follows the same colour palette as the kitchen, with it having marble walls with hints of teal. The room includes a large silver bathtub which features gold taps.

There are hints of the countryside in one of the bedrooms, which includes wooden furniture. The walls have been painted white and there are grey carpets as well an alcove area.

The family can access to the vast garden on the estate through the living area, which features patio doors that provide plenty of sunlight, alongside the bay window feature.

The Blue Peter alum previously revealed to Hello magazine that her and Richie had bought the property because of its impressive garden, which is said to be 2 acres in size.

Touring the property for the outlet, she explained: "We're so lucky that garden is huge." She further commented about it: "It's got all these little different corners and pockets."

This includes a vegetable patch, plenty of places for the children to play outside, storage facilities and an area to host friends. There is also an outdoor swimming pool at the home.

Helen has also posted a photo of a "summer house" at the property, which features stylish furniture, wooden floors, a large fridge, storage space and views of the garden.

Last summer, the mother-of-three told her followers that the family were spending "every night" in the annex because the weather made it feel like being on holiday.

And although she has proudly showed off the impressive property on social media, she recently teased that she may be doing a little more work on it, particularly to some floorboards.
