Okay, I'm writing a story for, um, Summer of Giles I believe. I need to know what Giles' family home would be like. Where he might have grown up, what the house would look like (Faith's PoV), and a vague description (main roads) of how to get there from London.
They used Tony Head's own real house for the scenes with Willow in England at the start of S7, so why not work on that as an assumption that it's his family home? We're told it's in Westbury, near Bath, which is a nice area. (Google images will show you lots of pretty pictures.) The real Westbury is closer to Bristol, but you can still use the name.
The area is quite lush. It rains a fair bit. The route there would be the motorway, the M4 from Heathrow, then the Bath turnoff, I think onto the A4.
It would look very old to Faith, and some of the furnishings might seem a bit shabby. Americans often seem to find our bathrooms odd. The heating would be patchy in old houses, and she might find the lack of central air weird. Heating might be by big old radiators, or even just an open fire. She'd possibly need to find an extra sweater. (We call those jumpers, BTW.)
