General overview
This is our primary home, which is a spacious, 4 bedroom family house with garden, set in the wonderfully vibrant and diverse Crystal Palace in South-east London.
Easy to reach the city, but far enough away from the hustle and bustle to enjoy some peace and quiet.
We are 5 mins walk from Crystal Palace train station and gateway to Crystal Palace Park, where the famous 'Crystal Palace' once stood. Home to the Victorian Crystal Palace dinosaur sculptures, the park also has fishing lakes, a boating lake, cafe, maze, children's playground and hosts food markets and various festivals throughout the year.
We are 6 minutes walk from the Crystal Palace 'Triangle' where you will find a wealth of independent shops, restaurants and bars, including lots of interesting antique shops and the beautifully designed Everyman Cinema.
We have just added two beautiful kittens to our family so we would ask potential exchangers if they would give them some food and love during their stay. They are very affectionate but don't need too much in the way of looking after.
We also have a property in Dorset, UK! Check out our listing: https://peoplelikeus.world/properties/6949
The space
We have 4 double bedrooms available (one with ensuite bathroom), 1 x king bed, 1 x double and 2 x singles. Large kitchen/diner which flows out to the garden through bi-fold doors. Separate family/ TV room. 1 x large family bathroom.
Guest access
3 floors accessed via staircase.
Notes
There is free on-street parking outside the house but no dedicated parking space.
Cats to feed please!

We are a family of 5 (3 kids aged 11, 9 & 5)
Charlie runs a local brewery and Tasha works within holistic health
Back in 2022 we spent 6 months travelling the world and have stayed in some wonderful home exchanges.
Not looking to go anywhere again just yet but hoping to start making plans soon!
Once we start exchanging again we will, as always, be respectful of your property and keep it clean, treating as if it were our own.
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.
