Read More...We would like to thank Guy and Catherine for a lovely exchange. They have a lovely large house in a very quiet setting. Yet it is very near everything. Shops, walks, Loire river. Their house is in a great location to visit Paris by Train, Versailles by car. We spent hours walking along the Loire river and canals. So beautiful. Orleans is a fabulous city. So easy to walk around and enjoy. We visited lots of small towns and parks around the area as well. A great place to bring your bike to explore. We enjoyed sitting in their garden in the warm sunshine drinking some lovely french wine. Their cat , Salvo is very friendly and very easy to look after. He also enjoyed sitting in the sun with us. A big thank you to Catherine for leaving us a piece of her art work. And thank you for leaving our home so clean and tidy. We had a great holiday and would recommend this area to future visitors.

Read More...Everything about exchanging with Cathrine and Guy was simple and very straightforward. The house was very convenient to all amenities and met all our needs. We had never visited that area before and Orleans was a really pretty city. We used to drive a couple of minutes and parked our car at the tram line and visit the city. We traveled with our children so the holiday was mainly about keeping them entertained. We had lots of trips to lle Charlemange and the climbing center in Saran and we even managed a few days in Disneyland Paris. The house is ideally situated and it was easy to navigate into and out of when going on trips. When at Home we really enjoyed the large enclosed back garden where we had many barbeques and the kids really enjoyed the playing in paddling pool and the garden. The whole family spent lots of time in the Foret de Orleans which was right beside Catherine and Guys home where we went walking or cycling on the many miles of trails. There was lots of single track trails for mountain biking and trail running. We even managed a trip to Chamboard Chateau. All in all a great home swap.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Nice house in a quiet environment. The wide garden has got roses, trees and flowers. The house can welcome five persons in three bedrooms. There are two bathrooms. At Homelink since 2008, we made very cheerful and enriching exchanges.
We have a very wonderful cat, Salvo is Norvegian. He stays in the house when we leave. It's easy to look after him (cat flaps, ...)
The neighbourhood is very friendly. Your are not very far from shops and stores.
You can reach the public transports in ten minutes walk.
The Loire valley is a UNESCO protected zone.
