We had a lovely long weekend at The Swallows. The barn has been beautifully renovated and was very well equipped and furnished with a lovely modern cottage feel. The owners were extremely helpful and their welcome gift was an extra surprise, and very much enjoyed. The dogs loved curling up in front of the log fire and sniffing around in the garden, as well as watching all the birds who visited the garden. We went away to relax and de-stress and The Swallows was the perfect location ☺ï¸

A lovely comfortable holiday accommodation. All the facilities were first class and in excellent condition. Sadly during our stay the rain was continuous which limited exploration of the countryside. Hopefully the sun shines next time.

We had a lovely holiday. The accommodation was superb. It is situated in a very beautiful place, and the owners were very welcoming. We didn't want to leave.

This is a very comfortable and well equipped rental home. The owners, Graham and Penny, are very helpful and thoughtful - but never intrusive. The location is, of course, off the beaten track but if this is the area you are exploring then it is ideal. There is plenty of the great outdoors to explore. But you will also be very snug if staying indoors.
