Larry and I are a couple in our late 50’s/early 60’s. We live in a farmhouse in Cornwall from where we run a marketing consultancy. The house in Skopelos is a much loved second home. We are experienced exchangers and have enjoyed more than ten exchanges and loved making so many new friends along the way. We have two sons who are now in their twenties. Our exchange group would be Larry and me. We are non smokers and reasonably well behaved!

Beskrivning av hemmet vi erbjuda att byta bort
Home on a perfect Greek island. Perched above the harbour in Skopelos old town, the house is a blue-shuttered Greek house. Our neighbours are all Greek. The house is just behind a church and in the churchyard, there is a lovely cafe bar in summer. Steps lead down to the waterfront and all the wonderful tavernas to be found along the waterfront. The house has two levels. It is the upper level apartment that is offered for home exchange. This includes a spacious living area and kitchen, a large bedroom and a bathroom with shower. Stairs lead up to a roof terrace with sea views. It is also possible to use the downstairs apartment if extra space is needed but we prefer to exchange with couples or single people only. Skopelos Town has a beach within a 10 minute stroll and there is also another beach within a 15 minute walk of the town. However, the best beaches on Skopelos are a 10-15 minute drive away. You can catch a bus, drive or get a taxi to Stafilos, Agnondas, Limnonari, Milia, Kastani and more.

Beskrivning av vårt grannskap och omgivning
Skopelos Town is a picture-perfect harbour town with cobbled streets, white houses with blue shutters and delightful tavernas. It provides a glimpse of authentic Greece. The scent of jasmine is in the air and houses are decked in bougainvillea. A short distance from the town, you can visit beaches, fishing villages or walk in pine forests. Our house is in Vrakos, just behind a Greek church dating back to the thirteenth century. It is perched above the harbour, with great views from the roof terrace and with all the delights of Skopelos in easy reach. The Mamma Mia film was shot in Skopelos. for its extraordinary 'green and blue' vistas and of course the church on the rock.

Våra tips om platser att gå och saker att göra när du bor i vårt hem
It is a short stroll to a wonderful choice of tavernas and harbourside bars. Many have live Greek music. There are also fabulous boutiques and artisan studios to explore. There are too many to list here but we will send our recommendations to our exchange guests. Wallking around the winding streets of the old town is an adventure and you will come across many beautiful churches and hidden gems. You can self-drive or take a bus or taxi to the beaches and visit hilltop monasteries and the church on the rock made famous by the Mama Mia film.
Vad vi gillar, vad vi inte gillar ... Här är våra preferenser och husregler.
We are easy going and do not really have any house rules. We enjoy sharing our home on this gorgeous island with people who appreciate Greece as much as we do. Non simultaneous exchanges tend to work best for us due to the greater flexibility.
