We are a recently retired couple in our late 50s from the UK. Looking for a 1/3 month trip to Melbourne, Australia to visit our son who has recently moved there. Our eldest son (early 30s) and his girlfriend might also join us for 2 weeks if it can be arranged. We are non smokers. We will look after your home as if it were our own. We have home exchanged before with Homelink to Belgium, Holland, USA and Canada very successfully but our last one was around 18 years ago. Now we are retired we would love to start again.

Central London is a 45 minute train journey away. Train goes direct into London Waterloo. Half an hour walk or short drive to the National Trust house of Polesden Lacey with it’s beautiful gardens and cafes. Several other National Trust properties nearby too. Denbies Vineyard is well worth a visit which includes a tour together with wine tasting as is a tour of the gin distillery - Silent Pool, a 25 minute drive from the house. Bocketts Farm half hour walk away. RHS Garden Wisley 15 mins drive. Thorpe Park and Chessington World of Adventures, both half hour drive away. Brooklands Car Museum. Richmond upon Thames is a lovely town along the River Thames. Leatherhead has it’s own theatre and cinema. Many pubs in the surrounding area are well worth a visit as well. Hampton Court Palace home of King Henry VIII half hour drive away and Windsor Castle 40 mins drive away.
