The local town of Rabka Zdroj

Rabka Zdroj is a small spa town of about 20,000 people arranged around a large central park with good amenities for children, tennis courts and park restaurant.

There are several ski slopes in the town for skiing from January to March, an outdoor ice skating rink and horse-drawn sleigh rides in the snow.

During the summer there are plenty of walks in the town and hills behind the house, mountain biking. Lots of places of interest to visit within an hour's drive: the historic former capital of Poland - Cracow with its castle and cathedral at Wawel, huge medieval market square and cloth hall, various tourist routes to explore such as the 'Royal Route', 'Jewish Heritage Route', and several others. The Tatra mountains and national park are 25 miles away for hiking and splendid scenery.

What types of properties are we interested in exchanging with?

We're open to offers. The world is getting smaller and it would be good to visit anywhere with different scenery, customs and peoples. It doesn't have to be an equivalent house of 5 bedrooms - location is much more important. View requirements on the holiday home exchange web site.

You will find the house advertised on the Holiday Home Exchange site along with various others, all looking to swap holiday homes for a change of scenery on holiday.
