  • A quiet, cosy place in a vibrant city!

    We had a wonderful stay in Sharon's and her family's place. We felt immediately home in that cosy, tastefully decorated house with a fireplace, large sitting room with combined kitchen, a sunny garden with trampoline for the kids, plenty of space also for a family friends of ours which stayed a few days. Great jogging or walking alongside the nearby canal. Edinburgh was hosting the Festival again, so plenty of things to see and do. We also enjoyed sunny evenings of the terrace or movie nights After the Harry Potter free tour we had to watch the Harry Potter series again (there we were many streaming services available). Communication with Sharon was very personal and informative. A hint: we had reserved summer camp places with "SJM Creative" nearby for a week for our 2 kids (14 and 11) - they loved it. We also did a 4 days trip to the Highlands - up to the Isle of Skye - we had the best summer possible! We left with very nice memories from Sharon & family, Edinburgh and Scotland 2023!

  • A fantastic exchange in a wonderful house.

    We had a lovely time here. The house was lovely with all mod cons. It was in a great location to visit anywhere in Edinburgh. We would highly recommend. Very friendly exchangers too! Thanks guys!

  • A dream home exchange in beautiful Scotland

    Covid tested our patience as we rescheduled our home swap with Sharon, Tommy, Aoife and Erin twice but we were rewarded ! Communication was great all along and we were very happy to prepare our home for our new friends and felt very welcome in their beautiful and comfortable home. They offered us delicious specialities which we might have missed otherwise. They made our life very easy, provided us with great recommendations and even ordered the sun for us. We really feel we have made the most of our stay ! The location combines very easy access to Edinburgh highlights and vibrant festival atmosphere, a peaceful neighbourhood and local shops and it is also great to explore the south of Scotland (St Andrews, the Lothian coast, St Abbs, the Scottish borders to name only a few). We loved everything, the views, culture and heritage, in short a dream come true. Thank you very much ! This home swap was fantastic !

  • Fabulous Scottish holiday!

    We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this lovely house in Edinburgh. We were really at home and it's in a great location to get into both the centre of the city and the outskirts. We had great communication with Sharon before and during the exchange which made it all very easy. After being postponed due to covid, it was definitely worth the 2 year wait. There's heaps to do, not least a lot of exploring in the beautiful and historical city with it's dark history (we did a few 'dark side' tours). We enjoyed trips to Loch Lomond and to see the magnificent Kelpies. We also climbed a lot of hills and were rewarded with some wonderful views. Sharon and family looked after our home with great care and were thoroughly lovely house guests. Thank you!

  • Sharon and Tommy ensured we had a warm welcome to their beautiful spacious home ; the sunny terrrace and comfortable sitting areas where we could relax after enjoying exciting Edinburgh and the nearby peaceful Union Canal. We had all the information we needed about trips and transport in order to make the most of our stay. Thanks also for the gifts and personal messages from the girls.

  • We spent a really great time in Edinburgh!

    The house was great and Edinburgh and the Fringe festival kept us occupied for more than 2 weeks.

  • Fantastic stay in Edinburgh

    We had a fantastic stay at Sharon & Peter's house in Edinburgh. The house is very well located, in a quite quarter, beside a wonderfull canal that leads to the city center, that you can reach by bicycle in 10 minutes. The house was full equiped and very confortable, and Sharon & Peter made everything very easy. Edinburgh is a fantastic city, you smell history and culture everywhere (special mention to the Summer festival, a must in your life), the surroundings are marvelous, and Scots are really gentle and warm people. Definitely we have to go back. It doesn't matter if it rains a little bid!.
