We love hearing from Home Base Holidays members about their home exchange holidays! Paddy & Kath swapped their seaside home on Ireland's stunning Ards Peninsula with Graham & Linda's lovely 18th Century thatched cottage in Suffolk.
Graham & Linda's home swap just yards from the Irish Sea "This was one of the best home exchanges we've ever done, and we've completed exchanges all over the World! Firstly, the accommodation in Paddy and Kath's seaside home was superb, so comfortable we would have been quite happy to just sit and enjoy the stunning views of the sea! But there is so much more to see and do. The scenery along the coast and around the Lough are some of the best we've seen anywhere, the trip to Giants Causeway and the Rope Bridge was memorable as were the views. The two National Trust properties we visited (Mount Stewart and Castle Ward) were great and we spent several hours there enjoying the garden walks and views. In Belfast we visited the Titanic Exhibition which we highly recommend and also the Crumlin Road Prison, and Black Cab tours. We were spoilt for choice when deciding where to eat out, but the Artisan Cookhouse, that Kath recommended, was the pick of the bunch. I think our most striking memory will be the humour and friendliness of the people we met during our stay. Many thanks, Graham & Linda" |

Paddy & Kath's home swap to a thatched cottage in Suffolk "We had just over a week in The Nest, Graham and Linda's beautiful thatched cottage in the really lovely village of Rattlesden. We were spoiled with wall to wall sunshine so enjoyed breakfasts in the garden, and endless trips to the plethora of national trust and other beautiful gardens. Our favourite was Fullers Mill. We got to Sutton Hoo which was fascinating. We loved the distinctive villages and rolling countryside, the village pub, and a memorable trip to Hyde hall. Graham and Linda’s neighbours were super friendly, everyone was. We loved our home swap in this lovely place! Thank you so much, Paddy & Kath" |
