I am divorced and live with my partner Gordon in The Lake District. I am a retired Accountant. Gordon was born into a Cumbrian farming family and has also worked as an engineer. We enjoy 'The Great Outdoors' together especially hiking and cycling. The cottage offered is a holiday cottage that I have owned for twenty years. Now that I live nearby it is used by friends and family and is occasionally a holiday let hence lots of flexibility with exchanges.

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
A cosy terraced cottage in the Lake District National Park. Excellent location for mountain walks and views - close to Helvellyn -England's most popular mountain climb. The cottage is on the edge of a traditional village with pubs, cafes and basic shops. It is half a mile from the lake of Ullswater - where there is fishing, boating, sailing and swimming plus trips on the iconic 'Ullswater Steamers'. Hadrian's Wall and Scottish border are one hour by car. The cottage has an open fire and electric heaters plus a small south facing front garden with view.
We are interested in simultaneous or non simultaneous exchanges with other couples / families /holiday homes in Spain, France and other UK anytime.
