Anyone done a house swap holiday?

[lapsedrunner]

Anyone out there done a house swap holiday? If so which agency/internet site did you use and was the swap a success?

We did a UK one through the NCT last year and have one organised again this year. No probs at all, cheap for a year #35.00 to register but UK only

Anyone done an international house swap?

there was another recent thread on this if you do a search!

Thanks

There used to be a houseswap facility on this website, does anyone know what happened to it?

The houseswop section is under classifieds.

I did one last year, swopped my UK house for a house in Far East. To be honest, although it was a cheap(er) holiday, I wouldn't do it again. It was very stressful worrying about having complete strangers in our house and returning home afterwards was quite nerve racking checking for damage etc.

Yes, we have. We used Inter Vac and swopped with a US family.

It worked out really well. But the preparation was horrendous. Don't know if we would do it again for that reason.

Staying in Anglesey in July. Would like to do a Castle with a 5yr old and 3 yr old any recommendations?
