Lee Common, South East England

About this house sitting position in LEE COMMON

The Chiltern hills in Spring time is one of the most perfect English Countryside experiences.
We live on a single track lane in a small hill top village surrounded by fields and woodlands. Needless to say, perfect dog walking country - which is why we need a house sitter. We have one adorable super-friendly white Labradoodle who loves walking. Our one absolute definite request is that she is walked one hour a day – whatever the weather ! (It could be two half hours if really necessary.) But if you enjoy walking it is never a hardship.
Within a 500m circle of our front gates there are starts of walks towards all points of the compass that can take you across fields and valleys for mile after mile hardly touching a road.
Our neighbours are always there to help you and point you towards the community facilities like the brilliant pub and coffee shop open most of the day, the village community shop open 7 days a week just 200m away etc.
During this stay you may well catch a glimpse of the first bluebells as they begin to carpet the surrounding woods. Enjoy the many swooping Red Kites which have found this area perfect to flourish.
On a practical level there are the nearby villages / towns of Great Missenden, Chesham (weekly markets) – both 2-3 miles, where Sairnsbury’s, Waitrose etc can be found.
We ask that the animals are not left longer than 4 hours, but our neighbours are always there and will often try to help out if at all possible.
It is possible to survive here without a car, but highly recommended that you have one. Read more...
