This is a message from Elkie who lives in the Netherlands and would like to spend some time in Wales over the summer. She’s looking for a house swap, if someone fancies a holiday in the Netherlands.
Hi! Elkie here! I am interested in doing I house swop in the summer. I live in the Netherlands and would love to come to Wales.The dates that I would love to be in Wales are 16th-23rd of july and the 13th-27th august. I would be swopping a house in Zaltbommel, an old medieval city built alongside a big river, The Waal.
My house is a 10 minute walk from the historic centre and 7 minutes walk from the station where trains will take you all over the country. Den Bosch is 12 mins by train, Utrecht 35 mins and Amsterdam 70 mins with one change in Utrecht. The house has a double bed and a very good sofa convertible to a single bed downstairs if there might be group of three. It has a garden and is close(5 mins walk) to a supermarket, park, and swimming pool.
Our small town is famous for its fine artists, performing artists and writers. My home is simple, clean and cosy and has excellent WiFi…It is not a luxury villa I have friendly neighbours. Perfect location in the middle of the Netherlands for whizzing about the whole country
My partner (Cymro) and I are looking for a place for a quiet retreat. ( we are in our sixties) and will take good care of your property and any cats and houseplants.
We don’t really mind where we are, though we prefer a country location to a big city and would love easy parking if possible.
Let me know if you are interested in considering a house swap: please email me as I am not as competent with the forum as I would like to be
