We will take good care of your home, as we hope you will do the same in return. We are flexible with the dates and would like 2 weeks, but are happy with just one week as we plan travelling a few days before the holiday in Norway. we are looking at early August, which if you want to see the Edinburgh Festival would be the best time.
We have a couple of kayaks that can be used as well as 4 mountain bikes (2 for kids) and a paddleboard
