NB. WE HAVE ARRANGED EXCHANGES FOR SPRING AND SUMMER 2024 AND ARE NOT LOOKING FOR FURTHER EXCHANGES THEN. WE ARE HAPPY TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING POTENTIAL EXCHANGES BEYOND THEN. YA HEMOS ORGANIZADO INTERCAMBIOS DURANTE EL VERANO Y LA PRIMAVERA 2024. AUNQUE NO BUSCAMOS MÁS EN ESE PERIODO ESTAMOS ABIERTOS A POSIBILIDADES MÁS ADELANTE EN EL FUTURO. (SIEMPRE NOS INTERESAN INTERCAMBIOS BREVES DENTRO DE LA ESPAŃA/PORTUGAL/FRANCIA DEL SUR SI PODEMOS TRAER LA NUESTRA PERRA).
César es médico y Chris es enfermero, ambos jubilados. Vivíamos en Escocia y nos vinimos a la Marina Alta, en Alicante hace dos años. Nos gusta mucho hacer senderismo, la comida mediterránea y viajar. Chris toca el piano y es miembro de la Coral de La Rectoría. Tenemos una perrita preciosa llamada Alba, una schnauzer gigante de 2 años. Si bien podemos hacer uso de residencia canina para ella cuando viajamos, siempre estamos interesados en encontrar otros miembros de Homelink que no les importe que tengamos a nuestra perra (bien entrenada, de buen comportamiento y de una raza que no muda) en su casa para que podamos llevarla con nosotros si la distancia lo permite.
César is a doctor and Chris a nurse, both retired. We lived and worked in Scotland until we moved to Spain three years ago, so we are always keen on exchanges in Scotland. We love hill walking, food (particularly delicious in this area) and travelling. Chris plays the piano and is a member of the local choir.
We have a lovely dog called Alba, an 2-year-old old Giant Schnauzer. Whilst we can make use of kennels for her when travelling, we are always particularly keen to find other exchangers who would be happy to have our dog (well-trained, well-behaved and a non-shedding breed) in their home so that we can take her with us if the travel distance allows this.

Read More...We met Chris and Cesar in the beginning and in the end of our exchange. They are very lovely people with a lot of heart and humour and we have become friends! Their house, the pool and the surroundings are incredible - the house is stylish, cosy, full of art and has everything you need to spend a wonderful time there. We enjoyed the mountains behind the house, the sea that is very near and the cities full of culture and activities. A really great experience also was the Fiesta in Benimeli, which was a typical Spanish week full of music, paella, religious ceremonies, fire works etc. We very much recommend an exchange with Chris and Cesar! Thanks for everything, we stay in touch! :-)

Read More...We had such a warm welcome at this charming house in a typical Spanish village with a great pool in a fabulous setting. Chris and César could not have been more helpful, including introducing us to half the village! The house is gorgeous and the facilities are great. The pool and courtyard are idyllic and the setting is stunning. The village is tiny but welcoming. Wonderfully helpful neighbours. Short drive to shops and the coast and about an hour from Alicante airport. We hope to be back! Thanks Chris and César for a brilliant exchange.

Kodinvaihtoon tarjottavan kodin kuvailu
Casa de pueblo restaurada con encanto que servía como Casa Rural antes de que la compráramos. Tiene 4 dormitorios dobles todos con su propio baño, amplio salón con estufa de leña (y aseo de cortesía), amplia cocina/comedor que da al patio trasero desde donde se accede al la zona de aparcamiento y también al jardín con piscina, zona de barbacoa, cocina de verano y lavabo de cortesía. Los dormitorios están en la segunda planta, todos con aire acondicionado (dos de ellos tambiên con ventilador de techo), dos dan a la calle y dos al patio trasero. Hay mosquiteras en todas las ventanas . Aunque la entrada principal de la casa es desde el pueblo, la parte trasera está junto a la montaña ofreciendo un paraíso de tranquilidad.
This is a restored village house which functioned as a self-catering 'casa rural' before we acquired it. It has 4 bedrooms each with double bed (one a double sofa-bed) and each with en-suite toilet and shower; there is a big sitting room with wood-burning stove (and a further little toilet downstairs), ceiling-fans in the main bedrooms, kitchen and sitting-room, a study area with an Applemac and books, a very well-equipped kitchen/dining-room leading to the patio at the rear from where you access the private parking area and the garden/pool area on a higher level, which has with fruit trees, a summer kitchen (gas cylinder), barbecue and a little toilet. All the bedrooms are on the upper floor and have air-conditioning, two on the street side of the house and two facing on to the patio. All windows are fitted with anti-mosquito netting. Although the front door to the house is from the street, the rear garden looks out on to mountains and the hillside above us, the nearest of which is easily accessible for a number of very rewarding walks of varying length, which provide panoramic views over the whole, much wider area. In the sitting-room we have a well-maintained and frequently played Ibach baby grand piano.

Ympäristön kuvailu
Benimeli es un pueblo pequeño de unos 400 habitantes (aunque el número se triplica en verano), al pie de la montaña Segaria y enclavado en el valle del río Girona que incluye 8 poblaciones. Está equidistante de Alicante y Valencia, ambos a una hora en coche por autopista. Está a tan solo 15 kilómetros de Denia, capital de la Marina Alta, y a 15 minutos en coche de sus playas. El pueblo, por su ubicación, tiene acceso a numerosas sendas de montaña con vistas espectaculares a la costa, al Parque Natural de La Marjal de Pego y al Valle del Girona. El pueblo tiene un bar en la plaza del pueblo (a unos 50 metros de nuestra casa), iglesia, escuela de música, pequeña tienda, farmacia, consultorio médico, piscina municipal con bar-chiringuito y pista de padel.
Benimeli is a small village of around 400 permanent inhabitants (although this number grows three-fold in the summertime). It is located at the foot of Mount Segaria, in the Girona River valley together with 8 other villages close by. It is equidistant from both the cities/airports of Alicante and Valencia, each around one hour away by car by motorway. It's only 15 kilometers away from Denia, the capital city of the Marina Alta region and only 15 minutes drive to its beaches. There are numerous and easily accessible mountain routes from the villages with astonishing views to the sea, to the Marjal de Pego nature reserve and to the River Girona valley. There is a bar/restaurant in the main village square (50 meters from our house), a church, a music school, little shop, pharmacy, doctor's surgery, municipal pool and a second bar normally open during summer. There are many other excellent restaurants and bars, as well as shops/supermarkets, within a few minutes driving distance. Like all Spanish towns and villages, Benimeli has its own very lively fiestas at different times of the year.
