Your Housemates:

We're a French-British married couple in our early 30s, friendly and sociable, but equally respectful of your privacy and space. We work partly from home and are away fairly often, so the house is often peaceful and quiet. We currently have 1 lodger occupying another room in the house who you will share a main bathroom with (you will also have access to an additional bathroom and shower). We welcome applications from anyone and everyone including professionals, academics, mature students, and international visitors.

Please note: we have two cats, so you'll need to be comfortable sharing a home with them. They are very sociable and extremely cute, if you like cats you will love them.
