    Description

    We’re a young lively family living in north Wiltshire with a 2 year old girl and a red Labrador called Kimi. We’re expecting another baby in October to complete our family and are very excited. Both myself and my husband work full time locally. We love Wiltshire for its beautiful countryside and walks and local pubs too. We have a few towns local to us for shopping and are within the beautiful Cotswold area. We feel very lucky to live where we do, in a beautiful barn conversion, with a lovely garden and views. It’s incredibly quiet around where we’re based and we love the peace it brings to our busy lives. We love good food, seeing friends and family on the weekends and traveling when we can.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We love to get out and about and explore the local areas / towns and countryside. We love long walks, good pub lunches and being outside when we can. Exercise is important to us and we both do this weekly. We have plenty of friends local to us, and our grandparents are close by and live somewhere with a swimming pool and tennis court that we can use at request. My husband is a brilliant chef and can share all kinds of approaches and recipes to help you learn your cooking skills if you wanted! We’re looking forward to meeting new people from all walks of life to help support our family during this busy and exciting time in our lives. Our daughter is great fun and will warm to anyone who likes to play, read books and go on adventures!

    We’re a young family living in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside in a barn conversion in a small Cotswolds village. We have a little girl who is 2 in October and are in expecting another little boy in October this year. We also have a Labrador dog called Kimi who loves long walks and cuddles. She’s very friendly and will do anything for a cuddle. Both myself and my husband work full time locally, and like quiet evenings at home midweek and enjoy good food, seeing friends and family at weekends and traveling when we can.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We live in a barn conversion in North Wiltshire, surrounded by beautiful countryside. You’d have a bedroom with a separate staircase and would have a bathroom with shower. We would be happy for you to cook your own food or eat with us when we’re in. We’ve very flexible in how you’d like to do things, but would like a few evenings to ourselves (as I’m sure you would too)! If you’re a keen cook we could share cooking and explore different meals together. We’d be happy to provide a TV in your room if you wanted and anything else required. On the days you’re with the children’s we’d love you to be able to cook for them, fresh and lovely food. There is plenty of space downstairs to relax as well as your bedroom which is for your use only.
