There's lots to choose from, but we want more, so just for this month  we are offering all members 7 bonus credits for anyone they recommend who joins and goes live on the listings!

Find 4 friends and that's enough for a holiday without giving up any of your own weeks!

And that's not all, you will still receive the normal offer we have of 21 credits when you recommend a friend, they join and agree to an exchange!

Great last minute deals , including a fantastic ski in/ski out chalet on the French/Italian borders -

How time flies!

We have been so busy recently that we have neglected this blog!  How could we

Well we are growing from strength to strength, and can now report that we have over 650 members , with around 150 is the 'nearly member' stages.

We are particular about who goes live on the listings as we do want to make sure that there are photos, good descriptions and so on. We personally read and look at all members before they are made live and try to weed out any time wasters.

One point that I really would like to make is that EHH does offer a personal service. We try to get to know our regular exchangers re what they are looking for and so on. We do help members to find somewhere and we will go out and try to find places for members.

This is not just an automated website , with a back office that no one can contact. We are here to help and help we do!

We are actively looking now for our members for places in Italy, also city centre properties in Paris, New York, London .

So if you know of any , let us know, don't forget it's free to join, but only second home owners please!

Oh how the times, they change.

Time flies when you're having fun, so the saying goes. In the time between our last blog I've been lucky enough to have literally been flying, up above the offices in fact. While I've been messing around having fun, a lot of work has been done too.

While they were workling, I was circling.

We are excited. We want to implement big changes to Exchange Holiday Homes and we've got a lot closer to signing some dotted lines to help make them happen. In the meantime, we've been lucky to truly add some fantastic new properties to the site (pictures below) and it's been lovely to see so many of you fly off on your summer exchanges.



In fact I'm jealous and I really think you should consider our feelings when having such good times without us all.

If there are any idea that you'd like to see in amongst any other changes we make, the do please let us know. To keep things short and sweet today I'll close with the pretty photographs of some of the new places you can now visit through EHH.

Behind The Scenes

Confession time. We haven't blogged for far too long. Not that it's a secret, as you can quite clearly see when we made the last addition below. Now we don't generally like to make excuses but this time we're making an exception. They all follow below.

1. Lots of swaps! Those of you already with us have been livening up recently and wanting to take many more holidays that we've previously experienced. I'd like to make it absolutely clear that we are in no way complaining. It's a very welcome challenge for the team and means improving our efficiency and behind the scenes systems has been a must.

This won't just benefit us (that would just be selfish), as some of the new methods we are putting into place will make it physically on to the website and improve how you make enquiries and the tracking of  the responses you receive. We've had superb feedback from those of you who have flown off on holidays recently and will shortly be improving it's implementation into the website with both words, and, wait for it, holiday photos! Very exciting, we're sure you'll agree.

2.  Lots of new members! We are pleased to see our numbers steadily and readily increasing. For example, we were happy to add five new properties over just this weekend and have many still in the midst of registration. It's always a pleasure to welcome people into the club and see what exciting properties they bring along with them. The property photographs within this blog are all from new members recently added to the site.

3. The Place in the Sun exhibition! (Exclamation mark added for consistency) I recently (Matt) attended the Place in the Sun exhibition in London and met with a lot of companies that we can form working relationships with to benefit both them and us. The response has already been extremely positive and many discussions are ongoing. The increase in exposure and the resulting new members helps to further expand the club and provide new and exciting places for you all to visit.

All of the above and much more behind the scenes have been going on here and I could spend much more time telling you all about it all. The only problem being I must stop and get back to everything else that needs doing.

Until next time swappers. (They'll be less of a gap this time, I promise)
