Hi, I am looking for a one or two bed house or flat in Manchester and will consider any number of multi way swaps. Also looking for any Cornwall or 30 miles around Plymouth.

I have a gorgeous 1 bed semi-detached bungalow in Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis, HS1 2JG. Newly decorated in neutral colours, with rustic pine laminate flooring. It has a walled garden, 2 minutes walk from town centre, 5 minutes walk to two supermarkets & beautiful woodlands with castle. Fantastic bus service. May be able to exchange with two bed in local countryside.

Easy access to many incredible beaches, open moorland, hills, mountains, amazing wildlife - otters, red deer, golden eagles, whales, dolphins, and so much more. Callanish is so much more impressive than Stonehenge. Incredible prehistoric sites and sights, including many stone circles, monoliths, beehive huts, etc. The whole place is steeped in fascinating history and folklore.

Huge music scene with various festivals, including the Hebridean Celtic Festival and, of course, the Mod. Some of the best surf in the world is here, from more directions too. Excellent diving opportunities, sea kayaking and other watersports. Hiking, climbing, anything you want outdoors you can do here, or not far away. Brand new state of the arts centre & cinema, sports centre.

Massive variety of activities indoor and out. There really is something for everyone.

Here are some links with more info about the island and it's attractions. It really is a fantastic place
