Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Charm Cottage is a 5 bedroom house, with plenty of living space and a half acre garden with duck pond and barbecue area to enjoy the summer time. All bedroom are doubles. There is a large kitchen with range cooker, dining room and lounge downstairs. There is also a playroom with Xbox to enjoy. There are 2 bathrooms upstairs (one ensuite from the master bedroom) and a further cloakroom downstairs.
We already have plans for Summer 2019, but are looking for either California, Arizona or Florida for Summer 2020. Always happy to listen to offers in the UK or Europe during other school holidays though.
