Principles of co-housing - Co-Housing Bristol. Co-housing communities seek to incorporate the best aspects of privacy and community.

Co-housing is a concept developed in Denmark in the 1970s by people who were disenchanted with the quality and alienation of modern urban living. Welcome to the UK Cohousing Network.
