House Swap Endorsements

Our visit was primarily to do touristy stuff (Questacon, Australian War Memorial, Cockington Green) Our stay here was great, the house was lovely and clean on arrival and catered for everything we needed. The location suited our needs as it was a fairly short drive to everything we wanted to see and do. Our house was also spotless on our return and had been well looked after. Communicating with Jessica in the lead up to the swap was easy and response times were quick. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Jessica and her family as house swappers.
