Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Lovely, sunny, detached family home with four good size bedrooms, a bathroom upstairs and a second toilet downstairs. Our garden is well established and good for either relaxing in or letting the kids run around. The trampoline is always popular! The garden's south-facing and the large hedge at the back provides some welcome shade, whilst still allowing lots of sunshine. The patio is the full width of the garden and has an electronic awning which can cover half of it, providing a lovely shaded area to enjoy lunch on a sunny day.

We have lots of toys for your children to enjoy ... Lego, a big marble run, a wooden train track that can fill most of the lounge! lots of board games and much more :o)

The master bedroom has a super king size bed and the guest room has a king size bed. One of the kids rooms has a high-sleeper bed, with a fold out futon bed underneath, and the second kids room has a weekender bed, so a second bed can be pulled out and set up if needed. All the bedrooms have wardrobes with ample hanging area and drawers.

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

Horsham is a great location for a summer holiday, with so much to do locally, plus only a 30 minute drive from Brighton and only an hour on the train from London.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

We'd like you to enjoy living in our home as much as we do and to feel at home yourselves. Relax and enjoy being here between fun days out!
Just a few things ...
We'd like to find our house neat and tidy when we get back.
Just put one load of bedding on to wash and the rest in the laundry basket.
All the doors and windows should be closed and locked when you go out and the alarm set.
We have approx. 5 house plants that like watering once a week, plus (in the summer) about 10 pots in the garden that like watering daily if it's hot and sunny.
Our cat Fudge needs feeding, stroking and litter tray cleaning.
The fish either need feeding once a day, or we can put in a 14 day food block so you don't need to worry about feeding them and can just enjoy watching them.
Thank you.
