Greetings from the Bath Street Housing Cooperative. Our spacious 200 year old Georgian house, nestled in the quaint seaside neighbourhood of Portobello, was established as a cooperative in the early 80’s. We maintain a communal spirit, we hold monthly house meetings, and strive to live as sustainably as possible while taking responsibility for the long-term health of the house and the Cooperative. Home-made sourdough bread and cookies is a constant feature ☺
