Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in Dawesville, Mandurah, WA
We are a retired couple living in Western Australia. We were both born in England but met and married in Sydney. We have spent most of our life in Australia and have previously run our own businesses but have decided that life is too short to keep working. Lyn takes advantage of the local fitness classes at Timbers Edge and Ray plays golf at The Cut south of Mandurah, we both enjoy walking and cruising. Had our first exchange in 2014 with a couple from Devon, England which worked out very well. In Oct 2017, we returned from a 12 month swap in South London which gave us excellent access to both central London and Gatwick airport for flights to Europe etc. We also carried out a number of house-sits whilst there. We have also recently completed a short swap in NZ We are both house-proud and treat house-swaps and house-sits as our own. We are also happy to look after garden maintenance. We have joined AussieHouseSwaps as it offers access to far more swaps near home.
