I live in the village of Huthwaite in Nottinghamshire in the edge of beautiful rural Derbyshire.
Being a pet lover and pet shop supply owner i have a small menagerie of my own pets at home. I have 3 small dog that go every where with me including to work . No need to worry about allergies as none malt so regular trips the the salon. They are called Poppy, Coco and Eurmintrude, also 2 elderly cats , Pipkin and Grumble.
There is a large garden to the rear with chickens and my rabbit Bunny. so fresh egg's daily most of the year round.
Also the the rear of the house is a patio witch is perfect in summer to sit and relax in the sun.
With living on the border of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire all local towns and city's are easy accessible for days and nights out. Also there is a vast variety of restaurants and Pub throughout both county's via public transport if you choose to not drive.
There is a cinema, theater, Pubs, club's and restaurants in a neighboring market town of Mansfield if you choose to stay closer to base for your entertainment.
With having a family size kitchen/diner you can help your self to breakfast and relax looking out threw the window at green fields. I do enjoy cooking meals from time to time in the evenings to help me relax so please let me know if you wish to have an evening meal with me.
