Open minded, Helpful, Friendly
The house and area is quite quiet but close to lively Chorlton and easy to get to city centre. Just one guest room so it’s quiet but especially on a sunny summer day, kids and neighbours come round!
On a typical day...
I have a very open house. My house is your house.
When I host guests...
I like to chat with them when they are home but have my own things going on.
