Home exchange and house swap holiday accommodation in Mount Eliza, Mornington Peninsula , VIC
We are a family of 5 (kids aged 5,6 and 9). I am a university lecturer and my husband works in university partnerships. We live in Mount Eliza on the Mornington Peninsula surrounded by many beautiful child friendly beaches and nature walks. We are also a 1 minute walk from the Mount Eliza village where there are great cafes, restaurants and gorgeous shops. Our home is a kids paradise, with a huge back yard set up with a very large trampoline, cubby house, sand pit, bikes and scooters etc. We have 3 goldfish and that’s all for pets. We holiday in Noosa every Christmas and this year we will be there from December 20-26. This year we would love to extend our holiday by staying on the east coast of Australia for a bit longer in a house swap arrangement. We are flexible in terms of how long the house swap would be but we are thinking around a week. My husband would be working from home during this time so internet connection would be important. We would love to find a house with a swimming pool but this is not a necessity if there are other swimming options close by eg a child friendly beach.

We had a wonderful house swap with Sonya. The house was in a great location for the Mornington Peninsula and the CBD of Melbourne and surrounds. Mount Eliza is a cute village full of retail gems. The area was quiet and the house was very comfortable for relaxing.
