Double Room for rent

Cosy rooms available in a home in Castle Cary, ideally suited to a working professional, postgraduate or mature student.

Short and longer-term lets considered, and I can be flexible if you have some or all of your own furniture.

Bills are included, except additional gas.

The house has:

* Fast fibre broadband, ideal for working from home
* Dishwasher
* Washing machine
* Tumble dryer
* Shared kitchen and communal areas
* Free parking approximately 1 minute’s walk from the house

Well-trained and friendly dogs are the only pets that would be considered. 🐶

Castle Cary station is on the mainline rail route with direct services to London (1hour,25mins!) and Bath (50mins), Bristol (1hour 10mins), making it a great base for commuters, hybrid workers from London and anyone who works from home. Easy access to local towns including Frome and Burton.

No smoking/vaping and no burning candles inside the property. I prefer non smokers and people who clean up after themselves and don’t leave food out. I’m looking for people who have a regular schedule. A mix of at work and outside for work or social. I live a quiet, conscious lifestyle with simple diet and good wine and someone similar would work well.

Recycling most waste is non negotiable and expected by the council. We get limited allowance and so Plastic bags are generally discouraged and you are free to use my shopping bags of which I have many. I rarely go to supermarkets as everything you need is here in town centre locally and on the Tuesday market where you can buy fruit and veg plastic free.

I’m not at the property very often, so I’m looking for people who are trustworthy, responsible and respectful of the house. It would suit someone independent and who enjoys having their own space rather than a busy shared-house atmosphere.

Castle Cary is a lovely Somerset market town with a strong independent feel. There are plenty of independent cafés, a fantastic deli and wine shop, a local pharmacy, art galleries, a Tuesday market and an excellent local butcher, as well as pubs and other useful amenities within the town. Someone who enjoys this and appreciate these amenities would be a good fit.

The gorgeous Newt in Somerset estate is only a few minutes away, with vast gardens, beautiful walking routes and some seriously good Somerset cider. There is no garden at the house itself, but beautiful countryside is right on the doorstep, with lots of nearby walking routes.

If interested, please send me a little about yourself, what you do, when you’d like to move in and roughly how long you’re looking to stay.
