Beschrijving van het huis dat wij aanbieden voor ruil
We have lived in this 125 year old cottage for the last 22 years and during that time it has been renovated and extended into a cosy family home. It is located in a peaceful up market area of town, equipped with a modern kitchen, a wood burning stove, modern toilets and cosy bedrooms. Falkirk is a commuter town within circa 20 minutes of Edinburgh, Glasgow and Stirling by express train - we are served by two stations, both 5 minutes walk from our front door. A 5 minute walk into the town centre will give access to bars, cafes, groceries and shops. There's also a huge amount to explore in the local area including the Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel.

Beschrijving van onze buurt en omgeving
Our neighbourhood is a much sought after area of town as all of the houses are over 100 years old and are sandstone built. Whilst we are only a 5 minute walk from the town centre, the area is very peaceful especially the back of the house which faces into a private garden with mature trees. There are tennis courts just 100 metres round the corner, so you can often here the sound of tennis balls being struck which is nice.

Onze tips voor leuke activiteiten en uitjes bij ons in de buurt
The main attraction at the time we wish to do the house swap will be the Edinburgh Festival which is the single biggest celebration of arts and culture on the planet. Every August, for three weeks, the city of Edinburgh welcomes an explosion of creative energy from around the globe. From street entertainers to opera and ballet. Books, films, comedy. It's all covered and the city is simply buzzing with visitors! Even outside of festival time, Edinburgh is a major tourist city with major attractions including Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palance and world class museums and art galleries.
Glasgow should not be ignored it has many wonderful attractions of its own.
Stirling is also a short train ride away and features a castle perhaps more dramatic that Edinburgh's along with the Wallace Monument.
Locally Falkirk also has the amazing Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel.

Wat we graag willen of wat juist niet...
Our house will be presented clean and tidy. It isn't a "show home" and we will hope this will allow you to enjoy it and relax. But please leave it clean and tidy at the end of your stay!
