    As per title really. Do you have guest rooms, play rooms, studies, sex dungeons etc?

    Shite, I mean obviously not taking a dump in…. Although at times does vaguely resemble a landfill.

    One for guests, the other a general dumping ground for “stuff”.

    No spare room here. If somebody has one they don’t need I’ll take it. Have a new arrival due in November and it’s not the same make as the current one.

    Spare room? If it has a use its not a spare room 😉

    The second bedroom in my flat is a bike store / workshop.

    There is no spare room. In fact one of ours sleeps downstairs in what should be a study as its a three bed house with five of us in it.

    A guest bed. Underneath the pile of shite we are accumulating for whoever is packing for their next trip away.

    Under the guest bed is my lads old train layout.

    In one corner is the desktop computer and printer.

    Rest of the room taken up by the ever developing ironing pile.

    You think I’m admiting to having spare rooms on a public forum. Someone will be sending demands for tax.

    We have two guest rooms and one bedroom/spare room set up as a salon.

    The spare front room has a pool table in it, so it’s a kind of games room.

    One as a guess room. One as a dressing room and one with 16 bikes in.

    Computer room / dumping ground.
    Considering turning it into a turbo den, but bit tight for space.

    It’s not really <my> spare room but I’ve occupied it. 3d printer, shitloads of packaging material for my ebay store, rifle chronograph, it’s basically a clean garage.

    I have 2 (I live alone). The bigger 1 contains books and cycling clothes. And a bed for my boy to sleep in, or “guests” if he’s not here.
    The other contains the computer, NAS, a big printer, I sideboard fulla crap and (ahem) a load of video tapes waiting to be ripped to dvd. 😳

    Hmmmnnn.

    Two of us, four bedroom house.

    So, three ‘spare’ rooms. Dressing room for Zoe, office/work room (and general dumping ground), and guest room (doubles as storage for all my biking clothes and gear).

    Currently three have varying levels of clutter, due to there previously being three people living in the house, me, my mum and step-dad*.
    Now there’s only me, and much of the clutter associated with my now deceased folks has been donated to charity shops and clothing banks, and a steady reduction in accumulated personal crap will result in eventually having a reading room/library, a small work room, and whatever I decide to do with the other spare room.
    *Three-bed 30’s ex-council house with two downstairs rooms and a kitchen, I bought the house, they lived with me for as long as they were alive, for obvious legal reasons.
    Limited funds dictates how fancy things can go, but time is abundant.

    Office for winter, spare bedroom for guests any other time. I’d say in summer it’s 99% completely unused.

    Big one has a guest bed & piles of clothes.
    Smaller one is my office & also has bike clothing/kit in it.

    For a while, it was the out of sight, out of mind hoarding room. But these days it’s the man cave, with fish tanks; road bike; bike spares; pc etc.

    One I was sleeping in as our daughter is still cos leering, I’ve returned to sleeping 3 in a bed so the spare room is now a dump. The other was too small to be a usable bedroom an archway has been knocked through from our room to make a dressing room.
    Downstairs the garden room should be a great room but it’s also a dump as it’s accessed through my office so wife and daughter can’t use it during the day.

    Only counting bedrooms, as the others are ‘general living space’:

    One used as a home cinema/Hi-Fi room
    One has been appropriated as ‘walk-in’ cupboard
    One is a study
    Another is used in case we have guests

    One office/cat’s room.

    One guest/hobby/junk room.

    One resembles a guest room – full of stuff
    One is an office plus stuff
    One looks like a poorly organised landfill .

    It’s not spare, it’s my office and I’m working in it now.

    Sort of.

    One is a guest room and gets used as a temporary store for washing that needs to be put away.

    The other is supposed to be an office/study, but has just turned into a dumping ground for stuff we can’t decide what to do with, or don’t want to have to deal with sorting out….!

    One has wall to wall Ikea Billy bookcases, so we call it ‘the library’. I just dump ‘useful’ things in it, like the huge Lego MB truck I got for Christmas a few years ago.
