Uni housemate has their parents staying over for a week

I currently live in a uni house. I'm definitely not that close with my housemates, and I took up the tenancy because I fancied living in a house rather than halls. They're fine, of course some things annoy me - but their parents are staying in our house for a week?

I wasn't notified, or spoken to about this - it was only mentioned in a conversation they had with each other. I really wouldn't mind it if it was one or two nights, but they're staying for a whole week. I know i'll be confined to my room, feel awkward about using the bathroom, can't sit in the living room and the kitchen areas. Why would they want to stay in a student house?

Anyone have any thoughts about this, or dealt with something similar? I just feel like a guest in my own house at this point.

I've been through something similar with my flatmates when their friends would constantly be around and sat in the kitchen all the time, so I would stop eating just so I didn't have to go in there and be with them. It absolutely sucks, and tbh you should have a serious talk with your housemate about things like this, as it's not just their house, so they can't do whatever they like with it. They are being really inconsiderate towards you, especially if you weren't even notified of it properly.

It's only a week. I occasionally had mates from other unis visit for a week or so a time every few months.

It's their parents and its only a week- where are they from? It's probably justifyable
Just speak to your housemates and say it would be nice for some prior warning or somethingI

It sucks doesn't it, makes you feel like it's not home. I really wanna bring this up, but I have a feeling that it would have no effect. If they've told everyone else and they're okay with it - my opinion isn't going to warrant much.

I don't have this problem fortunately. I'm quite social with my flatmates, their friends and their family, so I'm not nervous to make myself food while they also may be making food.

good luck to you. I don't really have any advice for you other than be social and not feel awkward.

I am quite social, it's just I know i'll feel awkward bumping into them.

I think they're from Kent? Or surrounding areas lol.
