“This was our first home exchange, and we were delighted to stay in such a charming and well-located home, with a beautiful garden. Our hosts were helpful and communicative, both before and during the exchange. They took good care of our car and home, what more could we ask! Highly recommended!”

We have two sons, one of whom is married and lives in Australia with our two grandchildren
We love to travel and have enjoyed our trips to Australia to visit the family.
We have enjoyed five very successful house swaps and look forward to the next one.

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
We live in Barnet, a small market town on the outskirts of London. It is surrounded on 3 sides by countryside, and yet Central London is only 40 minutes away. Barnet High Street, which is only 5 minutes walk has all the shops and amenities necessary. It has also got some lovely older style buildings. Within a short distance there are shopping malls at Brent Cross and London Colney.
Picturesque and historic Hampstead and Highgate are within easy reach by car or public transport. Nearby Hertfordshire provides us with lovely country walks and pubs.Central London with all its numerous and varied attractions is 40 minutes by underground train, these run every 5 minutes from the station at the top of the road.
There is also close proximity to major motorways, the M25 and M1 being within 10 minutes in the car.
