Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in Mosman, Sydney, NSW
We are a family of four, mum and dad and boy (15) and girl (13). We love to travel and can do non-simultaneous exchange . We love to discover new parts of Australia and abroad especially places with bush walks, good food and wine. Like us, we hope our guests enjoy sharing a good meal across the table- after a day at the beach or exploring the local area :)

We were so grateful to stay at Karen's outstanding home with her manicured lush gardens. Location was superb - we enjoyed many walks exploring the parks and coves within their beautiful suburb. The zoo is a few minutes walk away. We felt like locals with Karen's wonderful recommendations. Thanks for having us :)

We absolutely loved our stay at Karen's stunning Mosman home and feel so lucky to have such a wonderful experience for our first house swap! The home is beautiful, cosy and luxurious with central heating and comfy beds. It's also perfectly located near Taronga Zoo and the ferry, making it ideal for exploring the city. We loved the walks around the harbour and the cafes that Karen so kindly recommended. Karen was wonderful to communicate with and generous with information. Could not have asked for a better swap!

What an amazing city haven this is. A gorgeous home in one of the best locations in Sydney. I mean, we could walk to the water, Taronga zoo, coffee, shops, the ferry and then come home, do puzzles on the deck and watch birds visit the verandah. Unexpected serenity with a cool, city vibe. We feel fortunate that this lovely family shared their home with us.
