We are a retired couple who have been exchanging since 1989. We have completed one hundred exchanges since then! We love exploring new places, but we only exchange within the UK now and are not looking for exchanges in big cities, nor do we generally look for exchanges during school holidays - especially in popular holiday areas. We are happy to care for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs etc, but not dogs I'm afraid, nor do we welcome dogs into our home.

Within an hour's drive you can reach several ancient castles, National Trust properties, the island of Anglesey and the Lleyn peninsula. Snowdonia offers much more than just walking: Zip World at Penrhyn Quarry near Bethesda and at Llechwedd Quarry at Blaenau Ffestiniog are exciting experiences and Llechwedd also offers Bounce Below - underground trampolining! Surf Snowdonia at Dolgarrog in the Conwy Valley is another exciting day out as is Fforest Zip World in Betws y Coed with its Fforest Coaster, Treetop Nets and zip wire.
