This was a home swap with a difference as we were visiting Plymouth to spend time with our son who is at university there. We really appreciated being able to entertain him in the Jago family's very lovely, extremely spacious and well equipped home from home. As well as affording easy access to the city centre, the historic Barbican area, marinas, the Hoe and coastal walks, the house is just a 10 minute drive/short bus ride away from Dartmoor. We enjoyed Autumnal country walks complete with wild Dartmoor ponies and a visit to the quaint old market town of Tavistock - tasty pasties and a thriving indoor craft market. Our pub highlight was finding The Leaping Salmon at Horrabridge, an independent foodie pub (check out the Sunday lunch menu!) just a 40 minute stroll along Drake's Trail from Yelverton (no 1 bus from the George Park and Ride near the house). Many thanks to Alison, Spencer and Emily for a great home swap experience. Communication was excellent throughout, our cats were well looked after and our house was beautifully clean and tidy on our return.
