Bachelor Bungalows
Eligible Bachelor Bungalows for Shy and Bold Alike
I went on a deep dive recently to find the perfect bachelor pad for my fictional bachelors in two of my manuscripts. I wanted realistic bungalows for them and felt that these three suited their stories.

Bungalow 1
Bungalow 2
Of my two manuscripts, one has a shy, isolated yet genuine bachelor, Nel in Forest of Sun and Shadows.
The other, from Love & Laughter (And other disasters), has a bold, charming mid-life bachelor, Louis.
Bungalow 3
Both are perfect gentleman with only honourable intent regarding their lady friends, but will they be lucky in love? You’ll have to find out when both books release in early 2025.
I would love your input regarding suitable bungalows for both bachelors, from the choices above.

News from my holiday in England:
I had a fantastic time climbing Glastonbury Tor in whipping wind, exploring the delights of Wells Cathedral, walking amongst wildflowers on the moors and headlands of the South Coast Path.
Quaint villages, literary places of interest, unique beaches and the South Devon Chili Farm all added up to a memorable holiday.
But more than that, I felt like I had finally arrived; in life, in London, in love. This was more than just a holiday, it formed the bones of a fairytale life come true and I can’t wait to write it up in a new book.
It’ll be a spin-off (as opposed to a sequel), of my memoir En Route, both of which, outline mid-life love and how to make a success of it.
I left complimentary copies of my memoir dotted around Southwest England because so much of it speaks of my deep connection with my past, and my ancestors, from the area. Their stories of resilience, love and longevity inspire me.
If you’re in England, specifically Dunster in Somerset and Torquay in Devon, visit the guest library shelves and you might find yourself a signed copy of En Route.
Millstream Cottage B&B, Dunster, Somerset UK
The Grand Hotel, Torquay, Devon, UK

I'm drawn to Bungalow No 2. What a lovely time you had spent in England, Elora, certainly a travel experience you will never forget. Love the photos, lots of memories recorded down.
ReplyDeleteThanks Pauline, I think cottage no. 2 is a good choice too. England was certainly memorable and I already want to go back!
DeleteApologies, the above comment posted as ‘anonymous’ not sure why or how.
DeleteYeah no worries, alot of unexplained things have been happening at the moment.
DeleteNo 3 for your shy man. But unlikely to be in Aus. Barbara R
ReplyDeleteI agree Barb, I envisioned that one for him; and he’s actually based in Wales so I’m hoping it fits the location.
