Paterswolde, best of two worlds : the vibrant city of Groningen and the nature of Drenthe
We live in Paterswolde, 10 km. south of the vibrant city of Groningen.
We just moved here from Groningen in January 2024.
We live in a nice bungalow with a big garden. Close to public transport, shops and restaurants, the Paterswoldse Meer (lake) for swimming and sailing. Perfect cycling opportunities.
Paterswolde is well known for its woods and estates. Just 2 min. from our house you can start walking!

Familepresentasjonstekst
We retired from a lifelong career in teaching (Wiepke 70 and Kor 66). Our two daughters live in Driebergen (NL) and London.
We like to travel and have seen a lot of the world, but there are always nice countries and more cities to visit.
We are since long Intervac-members and we were never disappointed.
One of our daughters lives/works in London.
We like to visit her on a regular basis, so an exchange with London (or surroundings) would be welcome any time of the year.
Voor korte schoolvakanties, lange weekeinden staan we open voor alle voorstellen, ook binnen Nederland.
We are also interested in (short) exchanges with European cities (Hamburg, Berlin, Wien, Paris etc.),
long weekends or schoolholidays.
Livsstil
We are real travellers. When we were younger we loved to cycle (longer trips from six weeks to yes, up to 1 year : Holland - Egypt - Holland).
With our two daughters we backpacked a lot in Asia and Australia.
Now we travel together and since we are retired we are quite flexible in our plans.
We don't drive a car and use public transport everywhere. Most of the times we'll manage quite well, some times we book a short organized tour to get to the touristic highlights.

GB091546A delightful couple with whom we had lots of communication before the exchange. The house was quirky in a very interesting way. The position of the home was ideal for exploring Groningen and we made extensive use of opportunities to cycle. It was great to meet Kor and Wiepke at the start of the exchange. We warmly recommend this exchange partner.

AU08039Our accommodation was wonderful - so clean, comfortable and accessible to all the major attractions of the town. We stayed for a month and had everything we could want for. Our contact with Kor was regular and easy.

US51212Absolutely wonderful people and absolutely exceptional experience. Groningen was a wonderful walkable town with lots to do, shop, eat, theatre, museums, just lovely. We loved our hosts and their home and it was truly hard to leave. I would highly, highly recommend this exchange to anyone. New Year's Eve was so special seeing the rooftop fireworks from our exchange hosts' home. They were always available by WhatsApp to answer any questions and checked in on our needs. Also, they shared their knitting needles and yarns with my daughter Quinn which was so thoughtful. Beautiful, beautiful spacious home which is a destination unto itself. It was so tranquil and gave us the rest and relaxation that we were craving, but the city was just steps away, everything in walkable distance, we never used a car or public transportation with exception to come and go from the airport in Amsterdam.

GBSE004978We loved the house in Groningen, really comfortable. It is very well situated for the town and all that it has to offer. Attractions, parks, supermarkets, cafes and restaurants are all close at hand. We were made very welcome at the local Parkrun - a UK export of a free 5 km run.
And we really enjoyed being able to cycle around the local countryside too.

CA3100This was long ago - but a great exchange! Groningen "punches above it's weight." It's not that big a city but the transit infrastructure and the cultural offerings are way above what you might expect.

GB091943The house is perfectly described in the listing. It is very important that the photos give every possible view of the house internally and externally. We have rejected many offers, in the past, because the photos did not give enough information.
The family were as listed. We had good communications on the build up to the exchange - not to detailed but cordial and helpful.
