We are a couple who spend a lot of time in our sea side holiday home in Kilmore Quay whilst our permanent home is in Dublin. We would like to spend some winter/ spring time in Spain, also Paris . Plan is to swap with couples or families who wish to experience Ireland from a beautiful sea side fishing village near to the Rosslare ferry port to Europe and an ideal location to explore Ireland, enjoy the local area and visit Dublin for even a day trip or short stays by road or a train from nearby Rosslare train station.

Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
This is a special property in the heart of a fishing village in the South East of Ireland overlooking a beach, marina and the Saltee Islands, a designated bird sanctuary.We have views from almost all windows of the beach and Marina both within a few minutes walk of our hall door! We have a private gate opening directly to the beach. The house is very private ,has two beach facing patios ,a garden all behind boundary hedging / walls which makes this property a haven for couples/ families. The house is very large with no stairs , spreading out behind a discrete cottage style frontage. This property is known as the best in the area ; we also rent when we are not staying at the property through Airbnb and the link is https://abnb.me/XJkKqhNMdeb where you can read excellent reviews!
We now have decided to consider swapping also and thus we are posting here where we hope to find some opportunities for travel!
