We had a lodger when I was a child, in fact we had a few.
My mum was a teacher at the local comp, and we often had a Monday to Fri morning one, with weekends if they wanted, who were new teachers, or here for teaching practice, and needed somewhere to stay. As far as I know it worked well. They would do there own breakfast, have lunch at school, and eat with the family, and sometimes even cooking for all of us. (occationally, not regularly)
We also had one at our last Hotel. He started out as a Sunday to Friday am, but when he got a boyfriend in town he stayed full time. Unlike the Hotel guests (he was staying in a hotel room) he didn't bother with breakfast, or dinner, but when we went away, en masse, for 8 weeks each winter he stayed rent free, moving the cars around and turning on lights. Our chambermaid went in a couple of times a week, to change bedding and top up the milk.
I would say a good experience. |
