Descripción
We live in a lovely large bungalow with a large beautiful zen garden. The children are grown up and live away. We love to host workaways to provide learning opportunities and meet people from other places in the Uk or abroad. We offer projects around the house, the dome or garden in terms of gardening, maintenance and DIY.

We are a twenty minute walk to the tram stop going into Nottingham. Shops are a 10 minute walk away. It is peaceful, quiet and a perfect sanctuary for those wishing to spend time with nature inside and out. We are fully vegetarian and offer healthy nutritious home cooked food daily.

We do NOT accept workways for longer than one or two weeks and we are often open to last minute workaways.

So I can absolutely recommend her as a good host. Best… read more
