25 Nature and Cottagecore Instagrammers to Dream Away With

If you’re craving a dose of the countryside without leaving your sofa, Instagram is a surprisingly good place to start. The rise of Cottagecore — an aesthetic built around rural life, baking, flowers and slow living — has made it easier than ever to fill your feed with hedgerows, misty moors and vintage dresses. The accounts below cover nature, flowers, baking, pottery, botanical illustration, embroidery, vintage clothing and quaint villages, so there should be something here for most tastes. @fordeabbey A daily glimpse into the misty, whimsical gardens at Forde Abbey. @florencemayvintage Sunflowers, yellow tones and vintage clothing, plus the occasional film-inspired outfit — Daisy’s Little Women look is a particular highlight. @rachaelannacocker Rachael is a designer and maker based in Great Yarmouth.
