Description

I am looking someone (preferably a postgrad) to look after my flat while I am working abroad. My spare room is available from January until June/July (date to be agreed). Then I will be back for the summer. (It will be available again in September if you wish to return.)

There are excellent transport links, both bus and train, into Edinburgh centre. And the airport is only 15-20 minutes away by bus or car.

About me: I am a retired teacher. I work in Italy during the school term, so you will mostly have the place to yourself.

The room has a double bed, double wardrobe, good hanging space, a storage cupboard, and two units with three drawers each. There is also an office desk with computer monitor, and a shelf for books. The kitchen is has all the usual things, but no freezer. (However, the supermarket is two minutes away, and is open until 10pm.) There is a washing machine, and old-fashioned pulley (clothes drier) where you hang your clothes to dry. Clothes dry well overnight. Central heating throughout.

There are excellent transport links, especially to Edinburgh University central campus. The 43 bus to Edinburgh (Princes Street) takes about 30-35 minutes. By train, the journey from Dalmeny Station takes only 15 minutes. There is also a bus service (Jet 747) to/from Edinburgh Airport which takes only 18 minutes to South Queensferry.

As you will see from the photographs, I have an amazing view. Queensferry is a great place to live with lots of green space, and good walks. It is also a friendly community, with many local activities, clubs etc— sports centre, rowing club, watersports, swimming pool, singing group, art club, book club, etc.

All I ask is that you live quietly so you don’t disturb my neighbours, and keep the place in good order . The rent includes all bills and cleaning (kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and living room) every four weeks.

If you are interested, please write and tell me a little about yourself, your circumstances, your course, job etc, and include contact details. A good letter of introduction goes a long way!
