Wonderful large family home in south Lake District, UK. We love our house, with its spacious kitchen and living areas, beautiful garden overlooking a large field and distant mountains. We can walk into town easily or take a short drive to the base of the lake district.
The Lake District is a stunning part of England very popular with tourists. Hikers will love it here. The northern lakes have the mountains and more dramatic views, but the furness peninsula, where we are located, tends to be less touristy and still has incredible scenery as well as charming towns. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the base of the lakes. 10 minutes away you will find beautiful beaches such as Roanhead and Bardsea. A car is a good idea in this area, but there are bus tours that explore the lakes as well.
We are just under 2 hrs from the Manchester airport by car or train.
The space
Our home has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms accessible to guests. A large lounge, dining room,
Conservatory and large garden area. We have just moved in last June and are still in the process of decorating. It’s a comfortable family home, with very comfortable beds, modern bathrooms and kitchen.

We are a family of 4 from the US now living in the Lake District, UK. We are looking forward to traveling all over the UK and Europe. We have never done a home exchange before, but we have experience as Airbnb hosts and guests!
"Prefer weekend trips to drivable locations in the UK, around the school holidays for trips abroad or locations further afield within the UK"
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
