Friendly Family in Bristol
BristolGBP 550.00/month
We live in a pretty english village, but very close to Bristol (only 2.5 miles to Bristol City Centre) so we are lucky to have lovely countryside as well as being close to everything. Bristol is a beautiful city with lots to see, and close to Bath and London for day trips. We have a regular bus route to Bristol as well as a cycle track at the back of our house, for those who don't have a car. About 10-15 minutes drive from Bristol Airport, Bristol Temple Meads Railway Station and Bristol Bus station. Our house has 5 bedrooms, two of which are available for homestay, although not always at the same time. The first is a spacious and airy modern room downstairs that has a double bed, ideally suited for a single person (or couple for shorter stays). This room has plenty of storage, an arm-chair, a desk & your own fridge. The second is a small room upstairs that I used variously as a study/ guest room. It has a single loft bed with a comfortable mattress, and another comfortable pull down bed which otherwise acts as an armchair. There is a desk and storage, and is ideal for someone on a budget, but who require a clean and comfortable room. I would accept 2 people in this room by request, but only for very short stays. Because we have daughters, we only accept females in the upstairs room. PLEASE ALSO NOTE: our Downstairs room is our priority room. We only tend to book out the Upstairs room for additional smaller stays when the Downstairs room is already booked out, and that is because its frequently in use as a study or with family/ friends staying over. Please accept our apologies if we do not accept your booking - its likely due to your exact stay needs clashing with wider goings on in our life. We have parking for 2-3 cars outside, but you might have to use the road sometimes. We are a friendly couple with 2 daughters (aged 19 and 15) and enjoy having visitors. We have a cute and friendly Border Terrier dog called Wilfie. We do not provide breakfast, or meals, except by arrangement in advance. Guests have access to the kitchen/ sitting room, downstairs shower room (& upstairs bathroom if you are in the upstairs room), the utility/ laundry and a lovely big garden. We have another lounge, but Adam works from here, so its not really set up for guests. We have had friends, family, lodgers and home-stay staying from Scotland, Ireland, France, Italy, Austria, Spain, Fiji, Czech Republic, Mexico, Brazil, India, China and Africa, and welcome you to experience family life in the UK. We have not been able to accommodate families yet, but might when we are less busy with work etc. Liz is Scottish, and Adam is English, and both we and our children will help you improve your english through conversation. We are pretty chilled out, with few rules. We are often around to chat and share a glass of wine, but are also a busy household so happy for you to come and go as you please. We don't really have a curfew time, as long as you are quiet coming into the house after 11pm. We try to be quiet in the morning, but with 4 of use and a dog trying to get out of the door by 8am, we can't promise silence. Weekends are generally busy and sociable. Any questions, get in touch.
You will have key; and share kitchen and other communal facilities (e.g. TV, washing machine, bathroomS). No curfew, but please be quiet if you are coming home late. Clean up after yourself.
