We live on a quiet road approximately a mile from the market town of Sandbach. We have four bedrooms, one that is in the garden complete with an ensuite bathroom, fridge, TV and all modern conveniences. We have a large conservatory which opens out onto a patio with lovely garden furniture and is perfect for BBQ's in the summer. I love to cook and would be delighted to provide good home cooked food. We do not have any pets but we are both very hospitable and enjoy meeting new people. We used to have a narrow boat and took paying guests out during the summer so having people to stay in our home would be a new interest for us.
