Morning,
I'm due to complete on the sale of my flat in a few weeks. The house I'm buying won't be ready until about 5/6 weeks after. It's me, DS (nearly 3) and 6m DD. Their father is moving into a shared house in two weeks so although we are entirely amicable, we can't go there.
We don't have in laws family in the country. I just have my father and he's 80, very stuck in his ways and lives in a 2 bed, so not much room. It's not somewhere we could stay more than two weeks without threatening our currently wonderful relationship - and it's too far for nursery.
My best friend would have us for a week or so but again, not much space and in middle of nowhere so couldn't get to nursery.
I could get an Airbnb nearby but that'll cost ££££s (London).
Or I could decamp us all to the seaside for three weeks. Friends could visit. XP could drive down regularly. Nice change of scenery and a bit cheaper out of season than a London place.
Any ideas?
