On the Sixth day of Christmas my true love gave to me, Six geese a-laying...

While we hope no-ones planning on laying eggs this festive period, we do hope even the busiest of us get some rest. Laying in bed that little bit longer, perhaps even with time to enjoy a coffee, breakfast or an extra-long snuggle with the children (we’d be lucky!)

If you’re getting ready for a viewing, here are some tips for ensuring your bedrooms are at their very best for viewings:

• Get rid of any unnecessary clutter
  Follow in the footsteps of organisation guru Marie Kondo and ‘defeat clutter to spark joy’. This will help to create a calm, seamless space where your viewers can imagine themselves switching off from the world.
   
• That fresh bed feeling
  It goes without saying that your beds should be made and the bedding clean. Nothing quite beats the smell of freshly washed linen as you enter a room. If you’re feeling a bit extra, tucking a couple of tumble-dryer sheets in the pillowcases or behind the radiator works every time!
   
• Match your bedding
  Try to go for neutral, light or at least matching bedding. If your bedroom has seen better days and you don’t want to invest in new bedding for each room, use a neutral throw to cover the bed.
