Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Our lovely, updated, bungalow is located in Hamlet ward, Stratford! Our house has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The master bedroom is bright and airy. The second bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. Our third bedroom has been transformed into an exercise/travel room. Feel free to utilise it if you didn’t get enough exercise walking around our lovely city. We have sitting areas in both our front and back rooms, with a fireplace for cool evenings. Our home has central air conditioning and natural gas heating. We have a fully equipped modern kitchen with a full-sized fridge with freezer at your disposal to fill with local produce, if you choose to dine at home some evenings. There is a natural gas barbecue on the side deck available for you to use, along with a small table for two to dine. If you need more room to spread out, we also have a rear deck overlooking our gardens with a table that seats up to six. Our backyard is very private, surrounded by shrubs and hedges-a lovely place to unwind at the end of a busy day.

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Stratford is a small city of about 30,000 located in an agricultural community of southwestern Ontario, less than two hours from Toronto or Niagara Falls. Its main claim to fame is the world-renowned Stratford Festival (https://www.stratfordfestival.ca/). It has all the amenities one would expect from a small city, while still maintaining that small town charm. There are lovely parklands dotting the city and many restaurants to suit all tastes and budgets. From our house, it is an easy walk to the charming downtown with historic buildings, restaurants and of course live theatre in four unique theatres. We are about an hour from the beaches of Lake Huron.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

We request exchanges of two weeks or more in length, due to the time and effort getting our house ready.

Are you someone who spends (or would like to spend) several days attending the Stratford Festival each year? We both work as ushers for The Festival, so can give you the inside scoop on upcoming shows. If you have a home or second home near a lake/cottage country in Canada to exchange with us, our home would be a wonderful base for you and we would love to hear from you.
