My family affectionately refer to my home as ‘the hobbit hole’, and I also like to think that it does bear a resemblance to Bilbo Baggins’s underground abode. Set in the pretty Yorkshire village of Ripponden in Calderdale’s rolling South Pennine hills, it is a very peaceful, private and typically English home, with a wood-burning open fire, lovely views, and a relaxing, warm, homely atmosphere. I love my home and I feel very lucky to live here, and proud when visitors (always) remark on its wonderful, cosy feel. It is very spacious at the same time though, large double bedroom, large living room and dining kitchen, and big garden on 3 different levels. We have a big trampoline in the garden and it backs on to the river. There are lots of places for walking, fishing, bike-riding and horse riding etc. Both the Pennine Way and the Calderdale Way are nearby. We are close to Haworth, Hebden Bridge, or for people wanting a more cosmopolitan holiday, Leeds and Manchester are 45 minutes by train. We have a lovely mix of rural life and great transport links, so you can enjoy tranquility and nature and yet have everything you could possibly want close by. Restaurants, bars, clubs, shops, takewaways, everything but the seaside- and even that isn't far from here! I have lots of photos on my phone but struggling to get them on here so bear with me!

Destination wanted:
I'd love to go anywhere but we are on a budget, so I would find it difficult to save up for air fares to far-flung destinations! I want to spend the whole Summer away if possible- mid July to early September.
About Home Exchange Owners :
I am a freelance journalist, ghostwriter and I run a dating website too. I live with my daughter Evie, who is 5. I have a lot of respect for other cultures and homes and would look after your house very well. I have brought my daughter up this way too and she is very well-behaved. I'd probably be travelling with my partner too so we would need somewhere with one double and a single.
