Beautiful cottage and surroundings

We really enjoyed our stay at Swallows Retreat. The cottage is amazing and beautifully furnished and finished. The setting is stunning and we loved our walks around the farm/fields after a day out. Our hosts were very helpful and engaging and we really appreciated the treats when we arrived. Thanks so much for having us.

Fabulous cottage and hosts. Loved it.

We were made very welcome. Lovely touches like cream teas, wine and dog treats left out for us. Beautiful location and an absolutely fabulous cottage. It has everything you need, the best kitted out self catering accommodation I have stayed in. Highly recommend staying here and if we are back in that area we would chose to stay here again.
