Description of our house
Our modern home is situated on a small housing development within walking distance of Norwich City centre. It is a warm and tidy house consisting of 2 large bedrooms (1 double bed & 2 single beds), lounge, kitchen/ diner, bathroom. With full central heating, internet and TV it is a great place to come home and relax. Norwich is situated in East of England; the city itself is medieval in origin with lots of history to take in. With a population of 130,000 it is large enough to have all the modern amenities of a city, but with the advantage of not being too crowded or busy. A focal point of the city is Norwich Cathedral and Castle. There is the famous Norwich Market and plenty of interesting places to shop and eat. Just outside of Norwich, are the famous Norfolk Broads, Coastal resorts & walks, along with many National Trust Stately Homes including Sandringham which is the Queens holiday home (I don't think she's up for a house exchange though! - But our home is!) Sandringham Palace http://www.sandringhamestate.co.uk/ Check out other near by National Trust houses.

Something about ourselvesHi there! I work as a Paramedic and my wife works for the UK government. We are both actively involved in church leadership. We are both in our 30's and are looking forward to doing some Home Exchanges. We have no pets, do not smoke and are happy for children to stay in our home. Our extended family lives in Cheltenham, Wiltshire, and Hampshire so we are particularly interested in extended weekends in that area, but are open to other offers. Looking forward to hearing from you Happy Travels Dan & Marie
