Winchester, Hampshire England (HE17328)

We live in Longparish, an attractive Hampshire village close to the historic cities of Winchester and Salisbury. London is 1 hour away by train. The river Test runs through the village and is famed for its trout fishing. The New Forest is 45 mins away and sailing on the Solent is also a possibility. Devon and South Wales are about 2.5 hours away. The local area is great for cycling and gentle walking. Winchester, Andover, Salisbury and Basingstoke are convenient by car. The house is detached and well-equipped. 2 double rooms (both with own bath / shower), 1 twin, 4 single rooms and 1 room with a cabin bed. 2 further bathrooms. The rear garden is walled and has a 12m x 5m heated swimming pool, trampoline and treehouse.

We are a family of 2 adults (45, 43) and 4 children (15,13,12,11). We enjoy outdoor pursuits, especially cycling, running and walking. Jonathan is a barrister, Alice is an ex-accountant and now a teacher. We are keen to exchange with families in rural areas, especially in or near mountains. We love cycling and could swap bikes. We have 2 dogs, but these would go to friends or kennels, and 2 friendly cats, who would need feeding but otherwise look after themselves. We also have chicken, but could get friends to feed them if you do not want to. Non smokers only please.
