We loved visiting Eva and Thomas's home. It's in a wonderful location, very well equipped, clean and comfortable. There are great transport links very close offering good value links to the many attractions Munich has to offer. Best of all, we managed a quick meeting before we left which confirmed our impression of a lovely family who are great to exchange with.
Eva and Thomas looked after our home very well. Communication was excellent throughout. Highly recommended exchangers.
Bruce and Sarah's house is beautiful, well-equipped and clean. We had everything we needed. It's very close to public transportation to Glasgow and Edinburgh, and very close to some stunning hiking spots. Stirling itself is a charming town with so many things to do. Daily shopping is walkable.
Muriel and Paul were a delight to host. Communication was smooth and easy. They left our apartment spotless (and some Scottish treats for us). We got to meet them before they returned home; they are truly the nicest people. I would gladly host them again.
We had a fantastic time staying at Florence and Olivier’s home in Saint-Renan. The house was so comfortable and had everything we needed. It was perfectly located for exploring the incredible beaches of Brittany. Our kids absolutely loved the beaches, especially Plage des Blancs Sablons.
Saint-Renan itself is a beautiful village with so much charm. We enjoyed wandering through the quaint streets and discovering local restaurants.
The house was very clean, and we especially loved the garden and patio outside. It was the perfect spot for relaxing after a day at the beach, and our kids had a great time playing there too.
We would highly recommend this home to anyone looking to experience the beauty of Saint-Renan and the Finistère coast. Merci beaucoup for such a wonderful exchange!
Florence and Olivier were amazing hosts, giving us great tips about the area, from local markets to the best spots to visit. They made sure we had everything we needed and really made us feel at ease.
As first-time home exchangers, we were a bit nervous, but Florence and Olivier were incredibly helpful and made the whole process easy and enjoyable. Their communication was excellent and always on time, which really helped us feel at ease. They also left our apartment spotless, which we truly appreciated.
We would highly recommend this home to anyone looking to experience the beauty of Saint-Renan and the Finistère coast. Merci beaucoup for such a wonderful exchange!
