Property reference 1770 Bromley : Home to 3 children under 12 looking to house swap in the school holidays.
This home is on a fairly busy road, on a convenient bus route. This is an ideal location for sightseeing in London as well as enjoying the peace and beauty of Kent. It's 10 minutes drive to the lovely Kent countryside, and 20 minutes fast train to London Victoria –so, the best of both worlds! Within 5 mins walk is a local shop, Tesco store and an Italian restaurant.
The house has 2 reception rooms, bathroom, TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime & a DVD collection for the DVD player. The large enclosed garden is laid to lawn with shrubs & trees. Children will be pleased to find the two trampolines, & a slide/swing set.

The family attend the independent, evangelical Grove Chapel in Camberwell. About 70 people attend the morning service and 40 in the evening. The mostly traditional sung worship is accompanied by a grand piano and a cello. Hayes Lane Baptist and Christ Church C of E, both in Bromley are closer to home, and all are welcoming fellowships!
Established in 2003, 'Christian House and Church Swap’ (CHACS) is a UK based house-swap holiday organisation.
There are registered members throughout the UK, Europe and further afield. House-swapping works well for everyone; single people, married couples, friends and families. Instead of paying a substantial amount of money for holiday accommodation, and then leaving your house empty, you can simply swap homes with other Christians!
It's a different and exciting way to holiday!
COST.... There is no charge for registration or membership. Only if/when a house-swap takes place do we ask you to pay an administration fee of £50. For second and subsequent swaps in the same year, the admin fee is £25.
USING YOUR HOME....Your house, however humble or grand, will provide a great holiday base for someone else.Your locality, so familiar to you, has lots to offer to someone new to the area.
SECURITY...There is a rise in house burglary when occupants are away from home. By house swapping you have automatic Christian house sitters! When people register with us, we contact their church leader. This is for everyone’s peace of mind.
LOCAL COMMUNITY... Another great feature is that you will holiday in a local community. A local person, friend or neighbour, will have agreed to give you the key, check that you are okay and to deal with any queries. That person will also be able to give you up-to-date information about nearby amenities, local events, places to visit, best pubs, good restaurants and so on.
PETS AND PLANTS… House swappers are usually happy to water the garden and indoor plants, and feed the cat and goldfish! Mutual dog owners are generally happy for the dogs to be included in the swap.
IT’S YOUR CHOICE!...You get to choose from the descriptions of over 200 properties, mostly in the UK, but abroad too, all found in the online brochure. You pay the administration fee only when your house swap is confirmed. And you might want to swap once or several times a year, or only once every 2 or 3 years. There is never any pressure on you to make a specific choice. The choice is yours!
