Bedrooms have double beds and have sunny, south facing aspects and are not overlooked.

There are multiple toilets and sinks in house, collectively all these are lightly used.

No couples or pets please. (We do have a pet, he is a young Cocker Spaniel).

Lodgers have use of a shared bathroom with shower and bath. Double bedrooms include usual fitted furniture and double beds.

Included will be access to shared areas of Kitchen, Breakfast Room and Conservatory. The kitchen is modern, open plan with a breakfast room. All usual utilities available - washing machine, microwave and large fridge and freezer. Access to garden and Conservatory area via Kitchen. Some storage available, for a bike etc. Have external side passage for bikes etc and a secure Conservatory and rear garden.

About the Landlord. Working life spent in aerospace, defence, and in the space industry, reaching director level. Keen yachtsman.

b) Landlord is occasionally away travelling or sailing.

c) Lodgers expected to keep their rooms clean and tidy. All bedrooms have small sliding bolt locks for privacy.

d) Shared areas jointly cleaned by all, including Landlord. Very light duty, mainly achieved by leaving things nice for the next person to use.
