Notre maison

Description de notre maison d'échange

We have found a swap for summer 2024 but are open to offers for the rest of the year ! We are a family of 4 although our daughters boyfriends might like to join us if this were at all possible.

Our 100 year old house is located in Überlingen a historic town on the banks of Lake Konstanz, Bodensee, Southern Germany. The town is 1.5 hours from Memmingen & Zurich Airports (served by Ryan Air direct service to UK) and 1 hour from the Swiss and Austrian borders. Rough Guide to Germany (4th Ed.) stated : "For sheer good looks and polished appearance, it has few rivals in all Germany with its magnificent public buildings, picturesque alleys of half-timbered houses, glorious lakeward vistas and luxuriant gardens, it seems almost indecently favoured".

Please see the Überlingen Film included in Personal Links below.

Our charming house+garden is on a quiet street 5min walk from the lake and town. Old romantic charm, original wooden floors and stairs, antique/ retro furniture, relaxing atmosphere, sunny light rooms, ideal family holiday destination. British owner.

We are experienced exchangers who will take care of your home and work to make your stay here special.

Quartier

Description de notre quartier et ses alentours

We live on a quiet side street. The lake and the historic town centre is 5 mins walk away. Enjoy a morning swim followed by breakfast on our deck. Relax in the garden. Walking distance from our house are supermarkets (many organic), bakeries and cake shops. Locally there are many opportunities to swim, canoe, sail and windsurf. There are boats to most locations around the lake and lakeside cycle paths. Altstadt: picturesque, without being twee. Much of the original ramparts and defensive towers are still in place. Überlingen, although benefitting from tourism, is by no means given over to it. It's a real town, with a life of its own. There is a bi-weekly market selling mostly local organic produce. Promenade: the longest on the entire Bodensee. Along the promenade and within a short walk of the lake approximately 50 restaurants and cafes are to be found including German, Italian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, amongst others. There are many nice villages and local walks close by.

A Faire

Nos conseils pour des restaurants, cafés, shopping et activitiés à ne pas manquer

Locally there is so much on offer. The lakefront location, old town, market thermal baths and sauna complex. Swimming and wind surfing. There are local walks we can recommend as well as safe cycle paths along the lake. Taste the local wines and food. You can travel to almost all tourist attractions and towns by bike, boat or car. The flower island of Mainau is best visited by boat which runs regularly from Uberlingen. Konstanz, Meersburg and Lindau are all historic old lakefront towns most with thermal baths. If you would like to explore further afield many of our exchange families have visited Munich, Freiburg, Black Forest, Neuschwanstein, Zurich or Stuttgart. There are now daily coaches running to most of these locations. Then there are the Alps if you like hiking or skiing. Europapark, the largest theme park in Germany and one of the most popular in Europe is close by. For kids and adults there is a climbing park 30 mins drive from our house.

Nos préférences

Ce qu'on apprécie, ce qu'on apprécie moins… Voici nos préférences et nos règles de maison.

We are experienced exchangers. You will find our home clean and comfortable. We have tried to decorate our rooms in a style that fits our 100 year old house. We do not have a television but we do have a laptop. We love to cook and consider our kitchen well equipped but not modern. We do not have a microwave for example. We consider that we are quite relaxed about our house. We want you to relax and feel at home. However we have spent time renovating and ask that you take care of the wooden floors and antiques as well as the clay statues in the garden. We prefer you to remove shoes in the house. We ask that you look after plants and vegetables in summer but hope you will also enjoy harvesting and eating them !
