Please note: This is a labour-intensive house and garden, so you will also take your fair share in maintaining the appearance and upkeep of both.
Who I’m looking for

About the household
A university student has lived here for the past two years and is now moving out, so I’m looking for a suitable replacement. My health has declined significantly over the last year, and I now have two carers from 8am to 8pm. I am currently on bed rest due to multiple health conditions, so reliability and a calm, supportive nature are essential.
Location
A charming, characterful old house set in beautiful surroundings, just 1.5 miles from the nearest Hawkshead village in the heart of the Lake District.
