Thanks everyone for your replies to my last post - seems that rented house furnishing is another Anglo-Scottish difference of which I was previously unaware. That said, our landlord appears to have more of a Scottish attitude. He's living in E-town, so perhaps it's rubbed off on him!
I have two rooms at the moment, one of which is piled high with boxes and the other I am sleeping in. At some point I need to a) clear out the cellar so that I can b) move some of the boxes downstairs and c) canabalise the existing bed to make one small enough to fit in my room, then d) unpack all the books... it's going to be a busy few weeks I think!
Still need to sort out internet and phone - luckily there is a comfortable pub with wifi about a minutes walk from my front door. I can see myself taking up residence here for much of the next week!
