Becky teaches German and French in a girls state secondary school. Michael manages a 5* hotel. He is a jolly German. We both love travelling, good food and wine, the opera, theatre, galleries etc. Michael is a keen amateur French horn player and is also learning to play the piano. Becky loves to read, sew and knit. We both love walking in the countryside.
We have two cats, Joey, big shy boy and Poppy, small friendly girl, who would need feeding. We would be happy to do the same for you. Although we do not have children, well behaved children and teenagers would be welcome. (As we have a raised pond in the garden it may not be suitable for unsupervised use by younger children.) We love our home and would look after your home as we do our own.
We can only go away during school holidays.
