We are Liz and Mark, in our early 60's. We used to do most swaps with our children but they are all beyond University age now , so we expect most of the time when we travel there will just be the two of us.
Liz is a retired IT professional, having worked for IBM and AT&T, supporting mainframe customers for 34 years. Mark is an ex-police detective and now retired investigator; he worked with a government department to apprehend and prosecute illegal money lenders (loan sharks).
We have been members of Homelink for over 20 years and enjoyed marvellous swapping opportunities - we love the travel ideas that being a member of Homelink can throw up!
We are happy to answer any questions you have about our homes or swapping to our areas.
We are flexible and outgoing folks and of course would take great care of any home we are entrusted with.
We are sometimes interested in short breaks or weekend exchanges in the UK, particularly seaside locations or areas for beautiful walking opportunities.
Mark is allergic to cats so sadly we cannot offer cat-care.
One of our listings is offered as a luxury holiday let, and is quite popular , so availability in the apartment is sometimes limited.

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Our York home is a luxury apartment, with a wonderful airy and spacious feel, boasting vaulted ceilings and panoramic views of York's rooftops and enjoying a fantastic position in the centre of York.
Popeshead Court is the development of a former old warehouse tucked away in Peter Lane, one of York's famous snickleways. Our apartment is on the top (3rd) floor and enjoys great views out over the rooftops. There is a lift to save you walking up.Although very central, it's also very quiet. It is modern and luxurious although benefits from some charming older features like beamed ceilings from it's days as an old warehouse.
There are 2 bedrooms, open plan living area with kitchenette, 2 bathrooms, a mezzanine level with extra sofa and desk.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
York is a very ancient city, founded by the Romans in 71 AD. It retains a great deal of its history and is a fascinating city to visit. It is small and can easily be seen on foot, in fact it is best enjoyed this way. There are a wealth of cultural and historical things to see and enjoy; museums, the art gallery, ancient sites, churches and buildings, the iconic cathedral known as York Minster; the ancient city walls that survive almost intact, encircling the city and upon which you can walk; the many ancient cobbled streets with many independent small shops and business, a huge array of cafes, bars, restaurants.
Our apartment is right in the centre of the pedestrianised zone in the very heart of York. But it is really, really quiet and peaceful as we are up among the rooftops on the top floor of our building and set back down one of the ancient snickleways. So you have the benefit of all the city's sights and attractions right on your doorstep, yet a tranquil home to return to. It really is a very enviable location - you will love it!
