Accommodation

Beautiful self‑contained flat attached to a wing of the house.

Duties

• Running errands and handling grocery shopping as needed.
• Managing the full upkeep of a 5‑bedroom property, each with its own en suite bathroom, along with the games/reception room, cinema room, drawing room, family room, main kitchen, and commercial‑grade utility kitchen.
• Arranging and maintaining all outdoor terraces used during summer, including sweeping, dressing, and preparing them for seasonal use.
• Overseeing general house management to ensure smooth daily operations.
• Carrying out routine floor care such as sweeping, vacuuming, and mopping.
• Dusting and polishing all furniture, fixtures, and surfaces.
• Cleaning and sanitising bathrooms, including sinks, bathtubs, and showers.
