  Accommodation

  I have two spare bedrooms, one has two single beds and the other has a double bed. They will have exclusive use of a shower room and toilet. There is an outside terrace where they can sit and relax and enjoy the sunshine. I am happy to provide meals while they are here or they can cook for themselves. This is a non smoking household and I would expect them to be be courteous and respectful
