House in TUNBRIDGE WELLS Kent, Great Britain
Our house is spacious, in a quiet residential neighbourhood but with shops, pubs and restaurants very close. Country walks are also on the doorstep.
We have a large garden that is very comfortable for dining outside in the summer.
We are now retired/resting from teaching and have more time to embark on exchanging at any time of the year and will consider short and much longer options.

Looking for January to May 2026. 2027: Long haul 4-8 weeks Canada (Victoria), USA, Australia, New Zealand for 2027. Shorter stays in UK and Europe are of interest. |

About the neighborhood
We are a 10 minute walk from the centre of Tunbridge Wells which is a town of approx 50,000. It is very self-contained with all the shops that anyone would need, including a variety of supermarkets, and restaurants within walking distance.
Railway links to London are excellent with the station 15 minutes walk from home. Trains run every 15 minutes at peak times into Charing Cross or Canon Street stations.
There are various historical attractions nearby including Chartwell (Winston Churchill); Hever, Scotney, Bodiam and Leeds castles; and Batemans (Rudyard Kipling). Wakehurst Place, Shefield Park and Sissinghurst gardens are close by. The North and South Downs are easily accessible; as is the coast with Eastbourne and Brighton both within an hours drive.

I had a perfect stay in Philips and Carolines lovely house. They were very friendly and helpful. We communicated via WhatApp throughout the exchange so it was easy to get answers to my questions that came up during the exchange weeks. Royal Tunbridge Wells was a very nice little town to explore. I also borrowed a bike that I took with me on the train and went on several excursions.
This exchange was a very good experience. The house was spacious, very clean and located in a very pleasant neighbourhood. These exchanbge partners were very hospitable. We found food and drinks waiting for us on arrival and we felt very welocme and very much at home.
A truly magnificent home. We had a lovely time in Tunbridge. And the Engish weather is far better than people believe!
Before the house exchange, communication was quick and precise. We found our partners' house in very good condition, and we would have loved to stay in Tunbridge Wells longer.

We are a family of 4: 2 adults, Philip and Caroline, both now retired after teaching at a nearby Prep School, and our children who have both left university and are settled in work. Occasionally we might ask if one or other can join us with their respective partners.
We have made many exchanges all over Europe (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Sardinia, Scotland, Spain and Sweden) and further afield (Canada, USA and Australia) for periods ranging from four days to six weeks.
We are keen to explore new destinations but are pleased to revisit countries. We have actually exchanged with Sweden nine times and The Netherlands about sixteen times. We tend to drive to closer locations whilst exchanging cars for longer trips. We are close to Gatwick, Heathrow and Stansted airports.
