Read More...Robert and Joy have the perfect 1920's historical home for our 5-week stay. Beautifully furnished to a high standard and with a pretty green garden. The house came with the benefit of access to their Honda CRV and Push Bikes. With only 5 mins cycle to a beautiful beach and 5 mins walk to the fabulous Freemantle town itself with all of its hip eateries and entertainments, we really enjoyed exploring local beaches, shopping and markets, cycling along the Swan River and visiting Perth city. Robert and Joy were really friendly and had great communication too. So glad we made the exchange.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our 1896 heritage home is close to the vibrant port of Fremantle, home of sailing in Western Australia. We are 10 minutes stroll to the centre of Fremantle and 10 minutes to the nearest swimming beach and yacht club. Golf clubs and surf beaches are minutes away by car.
Fremantle, a working port, is home to fine old buildings, a multicultural population, cappuccinos, long sunny days and a sea breeze known locally as The Fremantle Doctor.
A free transit bus circles the city and if you tire of Fremantle there is an efficient 25 minute train service to the modern capital city of Perth.
Alternatively you can take a leisurely boat ride there on the beautiful Swan River.
