Description
Alan & I live in a beautiful little town in the English Pennines, surrounded by stunning countryside,voted 4th funkiest town on the planet, gay-friendly, abounding with cafes, pubs, vegetarian and other restauraunts. Offering many scenic walks to suit all levels of fitness, plus lots of interesting little shops,an independent cinema and friendly people. We are a few minutes walk away from the train station; an hour's train ride from Manchester and Leeds - York & Blackpool are just a bit further. Nearby are Haworth (home of the Bronte family) and Heptonstall (Sylvia Plath's grave).
We have 2 sleepy cats to feed. Our house is on a quiet cul-de-sac with a patio if you want to sit outside, and amazing views across the valley.
Extra Info
Alan & I are quite laid-back characters. I'm 51, an educational psychologist and he's nearly 51, a paint store manager. We love quiet holidays which don't need a car. We like mountains, countryside, quiet medieval towns, places with character but not much traffic, though we certainly would not rule out European cities. We don't need any "night life", because we love to read. My 13 yr old son might like to accompany us if he fancies it..
We've spent a lot of money on our house this year, adding a shower room and an extra bedroom, and now there's a huge sofa-bed in the sitting room which sleeps 2/3!
My son is 13, so the house has a small bedroom which would suit a child, plus some games and toys, but we no longer have stair or fire guards.
