Live in Landlords: We are Anna and Laurie, a couple in our 30s. We will be travelling abroad for most of the lodging period, so in practice you will have the entire house to yourself for the vast majority of the time. Therefore, you’re getting a good bargain by paying a lodger’s fee including all bills, but having a private home to yourself!
We both work in the charity sector, and value social / environmental /ethical projects and values.
We love to cook, we enjoy reading and relaxing in the garden – so our house is full of spices, books, and flowers in the garden. We don’t have pets but used to and are happy to have them stay. We both work from home but will be away for most of the lodging period.
This is open to anyone – if it suits your needs please get in touch! We can be flexible on dates and price so please reach out and just ask.
