published 29 August 2019

Holiday season might be over, but if you're yet to jet off or just need something to cheer you up on your morning commute, make sure you grab a copy of the travel-size edition of Real Homes magazine. The smaller, more portable format slips easily into a bag and is ideal for reading on a train, plane or when you're relaxing on the beach (we're jealous...).

Offering all the same inspiring content as your regular-sized Real Homes magazine, the new travel-size edition makes it even easier for you to enjoy the monthly mix of stunning home transformations, expert project advice and on-trend decorating ideas on the go.

Whether you’re looking for project inspiration, room makeover solutions or decorating tips on the daily commute, we’ve got it covered.
