Behind Closed Doors. Twenty Years Working as a Live-in Domestic Couple in the UK

Behind Closed Doors: The Unfiltered Truth About Twenty Years as a Live-in Domestic Couple in the UK

By Craig and Kirsten Bruun

We spent twenty years living and working inside some of Britain's most extraordinary private homes — Allington Castle in Kent, billionaire philanthropist John Caudwell's Mayfair mansion, and everything in between. The good employers and the awful ones. The accommodation that felt like home and the bed we were told to share with the butler.

This book tells you what it was really like.

Not the version from a recruitment brochure. The real one!

We also tell you about the job that was simply the best one we ever had. Not the grandest. Just the one where we felt like people.

If you are thinking about going into live-in domestic work — or actively looking for live-in domestic couple jobs, housekeeper roles, or estate management positions — this book will give you something no agency ever will: a clear-eyed view of what you are actually walking into, and how to protect yourself when it matters most.
