Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We have exchanges for May and summer 2019 but we are open to offers for 2020. Open to anywhere! Our 100-year-old period property is set within the picturesque village of Marden surrounded by beautiful countryside in the Weald of Kent. The house is extremely flexible and child-friendly and can comfortably sleep 10 people with six bedrooms, two bathrooms (and a downstairs loo), a playroom, a snug/den (with DVD and games console), living room, dining room, large kitchen/diner and downstairs loo.

To the front of the house we have a large driveway with parking for four cars and to the rear of the house we have a 150ft garden with a large lawn, two patio areas, gas BBQ, hot tub, playhouse, wooden play frame (with slide/swings/climbing wall) and a 12ft trampoline. We have recently added a large decked area with a seating area, fire pit and a large summer house. At the end of the garden we have a separate area with eight free-range chickens which produce fresh eggs every day (we can arrange for someone to feed them if you don't want to). We have built a huge decking and sunroom in the garden. Great for evenings when it is a little chilly, but you want to be outside.
We have done 12 successful swaps..... always happy to consider new areas of the uk and anywhere in the world.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Marden is a quiet village in the heart of the Weald of Kent. Our house is at the edge of the visit - within easy walking distance to pubs, shops and restaurants but surrounded by fields and orchards. Marden has a mainline train station with frequent direct trains to London and the coast and is close to a huge number of historic houses and gardens. Royal Tunbridge Wells and the County Town of Maidstone are both 20 minutes away and you can get to the coast, Canterbury or Rochester in under an hour. Bewl Water and Bedgebury Pinetum are 20 minutes away.
