Sue & Denis are a retired Medical Laboratory Supervisor and Chartered Engineer / Vice President of a Swiss multinational engineering company.
We have lived and worked on 4 continents over the last 35 years, renting our UK homes out while we travel. Thus we are well used to taking care of other peoples homes and leaving them as good as when we arrive.
We retired 11 years ago and spent 3 years travelling the world. European summers were spent on our Dutch Steel Yacht in Holland & France and the winters in Australasia and the US.
We now live in Brampton. Our daughter and husband live in London with our 2 young grandsons. Our son and wife live near Newmarket with 2 horses.
We have also remodelled, upgraded and redecorated our home. This has emphasised low maintenance, comfortable, easy living with good entertainment & communication facilities that we and our HomeLink guests can enjoy.

Vores lokale tips for muligheder, steder at besøge, mens du er i vor bolig
Huntingdon (3 miles) has a Cromwell museum, historic churches, walks, entertainment, gyms, River Great Ouse (boat hire, fishing) restaurants and pubs. Restaurants include the Old Bridge Hotel (C18th) which is the only restaurant in the UK to have twice won the AA Wine Award for the best wine list. Trains go to London and Scotland.
Cambridge (20 miles) has significant history as well as cutting edge technology centres. Its universities were founded over 800 years ago and there are tours to the colleges, gardens, churches, libraries and many historical sights. Entertainment abounds with theatres, music venues, walks, guided tours / buses and punting. There are many eateries - for a real treat we visit “Midsummer House” Michelin 2* and 2014 Trip Advisor “Travellers Choice Award Restaurant” #1 in the UK and # 2 World Wide.
London is about 1.5 hours by rail or car. We normally drive to the underground and get the tube into the centre.
There are great rail and road links to the UK.

Hvad kan vi lide eller ikke lide. Her er vores ønsker og boligregler
We have had rented out our home previously for years whilst traveling & working globally, and so are used to preparing for your arrival. We typically do this by clearing out wardrobes, having a comprehensive guide to the home & locality and leaving you a starter pack of food, drink and toiletries so you can feel at home quickly.
We just ask that it is looked after as you would your own, as we will do the same with yours.
Our Automatic Mercedes E280 Estate is available to swap.
