Rent includes all bills, Wi-Fi and use of a washing machine. 
NOTE Parking space is available, if needed, for £50 a month extra (optional).  Otherwise there is roadside parking

ABOUT US
You'll be sharing with me, Alison (60) and my 20-year-old son. He's a friendly, fun, thoughtful young man who works as a lifeguard, enjoys football, sport, swimming and Lord of the Rings.
I work as a choir leader, author and spiritual counsellor. My home is a peaceful place, and once a month I usually host a small, quiet meditation (Sangha) gathering.

WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
Someone who is:
- Kind, trustworthy and considerate
- Happy to help keep the shared areas clean and tidy and cared for
- Comfortable living in a quiet home
- sense of humour
- Respectful of others (headphones are appreciated for music etc)

This home would suit someone who is working and values a relaxed atmosphere and a peaceful setting.

Rent includes use of the shared kitchen, bathroom, conservatory and gardens.

If you're interested, please send a message telling us about yourself, what you do, what you're looking for in a home. We'd love to hear from you.

Available from 1st September, subject to an informal chat and viewing.

Thank you,
Alison
