Home swap holiday to a lovely cottage surrounded by hillsides "We had a fabulous 9 day home swap holiday staying in The Coach House, Susan and Jim's beautiful cottage in Northumberland. Their lovely rural cottage is surrounded by hillsides (and sheep!). We saw pheasants and also a hare wander past the cottage windows. Several small streams run through the property grounds and one tumbled behind our cottage - with the bedroom window open we could fall sleep to the sounds of moving water. Delightful! The cottage was centrally located in Northumberland near Hadrian's Wall providing excellent walking, beauty, and history. We enjoyed visiting some of the local towns, and did a side trip to the NE coast of England, where we did a coastal walk to a castle. Just spectacular. We also went to the Lake District for an overnight stay. Just an incredibly gorgeous area. All of this could be done without a lot of driving. Getting to Susan and Jim's was quite easy for us. We first flew to Edinburgh and explored the city a bit, and then hopped on a train to Haltwhistle which was only a few miles from our destination. Susan and Jim were very easy to communicate with, extremely pleasant and easy going. We also swapped cars and all went really smoothly. Our home swap with Susan and Jum was a big success." - Carol (Vermont, USA) |
