Perfect Household Staff is delighted to present a wonderful opportunity for an experienced and reliable Housekeeper to support a welcoming family of three residing in a beautiful five-bedroom Georgian farmhouse in Saltford, near Bath. This charming countryside location offers a peaceful rural setting while remaining within easy reach of Bath and Bristol. The family consists of two principals and their 12-year-old son and is seeking a passionate, animal-friendly, and well‑organised professional who takes particular pride in ironing to an exceptionally high standard.

The property is home to several animals, including a dog, horses, goats, and chickens, making this role ideal for a candidate who is comfortable and confident working in a rural, family‑oriented environment.

This role focuses on maintaining the home to a consistently high standard, with particular emphasis on laundry care and first‑class ironing. In addition to housekeeping responsibilities, the position involves supporting the family with occasional school drop‑offs and pick‑ups for their son, requiring a confident and capable driver.
