Accommodation
We live in a private, detached five-bedroom house in the suburbs of the city, close to the countryside. The visitor would have their own spacious, double bedroom with large king size bed to themselves, including free internet access. They would have access to the family bathroom, which would only be used by the children for bath time. The guest would have access to the kids' room in the evenings, including a couch and TV. The kitchen will be a shared space and they are welcome to share family meals or cook themselves.
What else ...
We are on two bus routes to the city and there is a bust stop a short walk away. We are within walking distance of two large shopping centres and some coffee shops. There is a nearby library and some pubs within walking distance.
