Travel advice on arranging Home Exchange Vacations
Elegant ground floor seafront Victorian flat with balcony overlooking the sea for breezy summers — and an open fireplace for cozy winters. We also have a rather splendid rear garden, including orchard, pond, pergola, summerhouse, vegetable garden and chicken run.
We’re in a great neighbourhood – local shops around the corner, Brighton’s classy restaurants and bars ten minutes’ walk away. As British as fish and chips!
