Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in Sunshine, Melbourne, VIC
We are Linda and Frank, a retired couple. Linda is formerly a registered nurse and Frank was the CEO of one of the local government councils located in Hobart. We have lots of previous home exchange experience, having done home exchanges in Germany, New Zealand, Queensland, Perth and Sydney, Mexico, Croatia, the Netherlands and Canada. We would love to do some more and explore other parts of the world as well. We are keen to explore more of Australia - Perth and Sydney in particular, and are prepared to consider swaps anywhere.

The main bedroom is upstairs, with a king bed, ensuite and walk in wardrobe. There are 2 other bedrooms upstairs. One is set up as a child's bedroom with a single bed. The other bedroom has a queen bed. These 2 bedrooms share a large bathroom and separate toilet. There is also a separate living area upstairs with its own wall mounted HD TV.
Downstairs we have a 4th bedroom with a queen bed and its own ensuite and walk in robe.
Also downstairs we have the living area, an entrance sitting area, dining and kitchen plus laundry and powder room. And we have a great undercover outdoor area with a weber gas BBQ.
We have a border collie dog called Jack and a ragdoll cat called Tippy and would ask our guests to be prepared to look after them, including daily walks and ball throwing for Jack.
We have a near new Hyundai Tucson and are open to discussions about car exchange as well.

We had a fantastic time at Frank and Linda’s beautiful home, it has every luxury you could wish for. We had the privilege of caring for their beautiful and well behaved dog Jack, only problem was we couldn’t take him home with us. They also have a very lovely rag doll cat. The location was quiet and relatively close to a nice park, good shopping near by and only a five minute drive to the local station and frequent trains into Melbourne. Frank and Linda are caring and lovely, even prepared dinner for us on our first night. Thankyou to you both for a very enjoyable holiday Jan and Murray
