My homeshare is an old farmhouse style house with 2 floors. The house was originally 3 properties (a flat, home and butcher) but is now all one home. It is quirky and unique, but very homely. The property is on a fairly busy main road to the front, but quiet and secluded to the back. Please note this is my home and I live here.
I am a teacher, so am out most of the time. I love hosting and learning about all the different cultures from around the world. If I can be of any help before you arrive, please just let me know.
I am close (only 5 minute drive) to the airport. The area has a pub, a family run Italian restaurant, child play facilities and is close to South Queensferry, famous for the road and rail bridges. Thre are also lots of lovely walks around the local area and everyone is extremely friendly and very welcoming.
