Hi Chris and Rex, Thankyou so much for an outstanding house swap. Your home was so comfortable, warm and cosy. It's also full of character which just adds to the comfort. Added to everything was your dog Zac. What a great little companion. A beautiful little guy. The area we explored was breathtaking, the pub, golf club had fabulous meals. We really appreciated your fantastic communication which made organising the swap very easy. We would highly recommend to anyone wishing to visit Mansfield.

This wasn't an easy swap, there were tough decisions to be made. Like, do we curl up on the comfy couch in front of the fire and roast marshmallows, or curl up on the comfy couch in the sun nook and watch the mountain view? Should we take our cups of tea back to bed and watch the deer graze on the lawn, or go out to the sun drenched deck and share our breakfast with the birds? Then there was the problem of whether to cook up the smashing local produce in the big kitchen or slack off again and stroll down to the bistro at the bottom of the hill for another smashing meal. Do we go to the maze today, or the zoo, or the wine festival, or the mountain?! And worst of all, the place was so big, with so many places to hang out that we kept on forgetting we'd actually brought our child with us! We are gluttons for punishment though, so we can't wait to go back
