Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We are next looking for a European swap for around 2 weeks in April 2024. After this date we may be moving house.

North Wales (our area) is really beautiful with sea, countryside and mountains, with access to cities. The mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia) are one hour by car from our home. We have three World Heritage castles within reach - Beaumaris, Conwy and Caernarfon. The beautiful city of Chester with Roman city walls and black and white buildings is less than an hour away. Liverpool with the Albert Dock, the River Mersey, the Beatles museum, the Tate Gallery and seven other free museums, is about an hour. There are also lots of outdoor activities within reach - walking, cycling, surfing, riding, zip wires, swimming, canoeing, tennis, and mountain climbing. There are cultural activities and swimming.

Usually there are two of us, occasionally one of my adult daughters might want to join us if you are in agreement. We reply to all offers.

As one of our family has moderate asthma and allergies we need to swap with families who do not smoke and who are willing to use environmental/low allergen chemicals for cleaning and washing during the swap. Please don't worry about this - we have done many swaps successfully! We also need a home with a bath please because of arthritis.

There is a train station ten minutes walk away from our home and trains all along the North Wales coast. There are buses along the coast and inland. You can also go by train directly to London, Shrewsbury, Chester, Manchester, Birmingham and Cardiff by train, with a change at Chester for Liverpool.

We have a house with two floors including a lounge, dining room, a kitchen, three bedrooms (with two double 4ft 6 inch beds - not queen or king size upstairs, and one single bed downstairs), two bathrooms with a bath in one and a bath/rain shower over the bath in the other, and a separate toilet downstairs, also TV/internet access and a spacious garden with seats and a large garden room. We have a deck immediately outside our back door and a double drive for two cars to park.

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

We live in a town by the seaside and have a walking and cycling path along the sea throughout Wales. There is a huge sandy beach for five miles along the sea and wonderful walking towards Talacre with a bird reserve (Little Terns) and a lighthouse. We have countryside pubs and hills for hiking in the Vale of Clwyd, Flintshire and Snowdonia where there is a mountain to climb or go up by train. Lovely towns include Llandudno with its Victorian seafront and the Great Orme to go up by car, cable car or tram and good views of the coast. Also historic Conwy with two historic houses to visit including Plas Mawr which dates back to the 16th century.
Conwy also has town walls, an old ruined castle, the estuary with boats, and cafes. There is easy access to the city of Chester with black and white houses, Roman city walls and a lovely riverside. Also to Liverpool with the Beatles Museum and day trips on the River Mersey, and Manchester with Manchester United football club, and free museums. All the cities have good shopping, restaurants, and attractions.
