Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in glenelg south, The Bay, SA
I'm an active retiree, keen to travel whenever possible and usually with one of my adult children. Our interests include walking, bike riding and sight-seeing in general. We are flexible with dates and interested in short and long-term exchanges and most locations. I have children and grandchildren in Sydney, Brisbane and Cairns so they are desirable destinations but I also love to try new and different experiences.

We had a great stay in Adelaide. Valerie and Martin are experienced exchangers and gave us plenty of helpful advice for our first swap. The house is very comfortable and just a short stroll to the beautiful beach. Easy access to tram and bus stops for trips into the city and only a short drive to the McClaren Vale Wine region. A lovely swap - thanks again!
