  What else ...

  You will need your own car. Situation about 5 minutes drive to a smallish but historic town with all amenities..... shops, restaurants , historic sites, river boat excursions, trains, surrounding airports etc. The atlantic coast is only 35 minutes away. Very nice country side for cycling, walking, for the sportives.
  I am naturally appreciative of an organised person around me.
  Please be as accommodating as I would be to you.
  I am a non smoker. I do not have any domestic pets.
