We are a semi retired couple who wish to visit our son in London this Christmas. We are looking for somewhere that is within easy reach of Clapham Juction. We usually stay with him but he now has a one year old, so the flat is a bit small, and we feel we would be better to have our own place although we probably would not be there very much.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
The Tasman district is known for its wineries and beaches. Two very safe beaches are a 10 drive away and Kaiteriteri (listed #68 on the CNN list of the best 100 beaches) is an hours drive away. It is also the gateway to the Able Tasman National Park with many day walks and boat trips. There is an indoor heated swimming pool and gym within walking distance or a 5 minute drive. There are many fruit and vege stalls nearby and in the summer you can pick your own berries at various berry farms. The Great Taste bike trail is accessible within 5 minutes ride. Lake Rotoiti is about an hours drive away.
