They are super relaxed and easy going where family always comes first. Dad is British and Mum is Russian, visiting family over the Christmas period. The house is a large 7 bedroom Georgian home with outbuildings on the small estate. There is the option to live in either the main house or in a small outbuilding which has been newly renovated (Japandi style).

It is the Grandmother's house and she has 5 children and lots of grandchildren and this could lead to more work for them over the next few years when grandchildren come to stay. You will also need to be comfortable with dogs and the Grandmother has a friendly Golden Retriever.
