Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in Saint Affrique, Aveyron, France
We are an active, healthy, retired couple. We are non smokers who enjoy the outdoors, walking cycling and sight seeing. We also enjoy travelling and meeting people. Our daughter and her family live in Melbourne so we go every year to see them in December, January, February and March. We wish enjoy our grandson and spend periods independently nearly them. We can offer our flat when you want because we have an other house near the town. So we can swap simultaneous or non-simultaneous.

Located in the centre of a little town, our flat is quiet and filled with light.
It overlooks the river, the church and a very old bridge built in 13th century.
You have all you need near the flat to buy food or to go to restaurants and cafes, and you will love staying in the flat seeing the ducks in the river and the beautiful view.

Roland and Nadine were wonderful hosts. Our apartment in the town was perfect and they also made us welcome in their home on the mountainside. We met many people in the St Affrique community and explored the countryside both on foot and by bicycle. We are returning for a second visit. Merci, Roland and Nadine.
