Inside Celebrity Gogglebox stars Zoe Ball and son Woody’s £1million cottage with outdoor cabin and huge walled courtyard

ZOE Ball and her 19-year-old son Woody are the latest stars to open their home to cameras for the new series of Celebrity Gogglebox, which kicks off on Friday.

Zoe, 49, is best known for her work as a TV and radio personality, whereas Woody - whose dad is Zoe's ex-husband Norman Cook, aka DJ Fatboy Slim - shot to fame last year when he appeared on Channel 4 show The Circle.

Gogglebox will be filmed from the living room of their family home, a quaint country cottage in Ditchling, East Sussex.

Zoe previously lived in a stunning beachfront pad just two doors down from her ex in Brighton, making it easy for Woody and his sister Nelly, 10, to see both parents.

However, she moved to the quiet village - which has a population of around 2,000 - in February 2018.

The four-bedroom abode comes complete with huge living areas, kitchen, and stunning white-tiled bathroom - but it is the outdoor space that is the most eye-catching.

The family's garden is beautifully arranged within a walled courtyard, and green-fingered Zoe has embraced nature with a sweet bird house, and plenty of greenery.

She has planted an abundance of brightly-coloured plants and flowers, including window boxes and trellis plants.

Zoe has also added quirky decorations, such as stone masks adorned to her brick walls - and even a wooden outdoor cabin.

With the family's garden as stunning as it is, it is unsurprising that they want to spend as much time as possible outside - with Zoe investing in chic grey wicker furniture and a wooden table for the perfect outdoor dining experience.

Moving inside, the family's home looks cosy and comfortable, with huge plush armchairs that their pet cats love to nap on.

Patterned rugs and throws add extra character throughout the house, as well as eye-catching wallpaper.

Zoe has brought her love of nature inside, with the living area including a statement wall with tree decor, and her bedroom featuring green wallpaper with pink roses.

The star has a TV built into the middle of her white bedroom cabinets so that she and her daughter can enjoy lazy mornings in bed, keeping things simple with plain pink bedding.

She previously thanked her Ditchling neighbours for the warm welcome when her family moved into the village, saying on her radio show at the time: "I don’t know if any of them are listening, but thank you to my new neighbours.

"I’ve just moved over the Downs a little bit into a lovely village and I have been inundated with cards and flowers from people, which is so lovely.

"I have got a card from the vicar of Ditchling. I live right next to the church, and the bells are amazing."

Celebrity Gogglebox returns at 9pm on Channel 4 this Friday 5th of June
