Beautiful cottage with enclosed garden.Comfortable beds and love each bedroom has an en-suite. Kitchen well equipped and the Aga is great to cook on. The lounge being upstairs is great as the view over the fields is lovely. The owners are friendly and helpful. This is the second time we have stayed here and would gladly return again

Swallows Cottage is a lovely, cosy holiday home. With comfy beds, brilliant showers and a well equipped kitchen it had everything we could have asked for. The secure garden was ideal for Ted the dog and a few miles away there were lots of sandy beaches and coastal paths ideal for long walks. We will certainly be returning for another seaside break.Maggie

Great cottage, well located. Perfect for the 6 of us with dog. 4 bathrooms! Comfy lounge and great social kitchen space. The wine and scones/cream on arrival was a lovely touch. We had fun in the games room too! Would recommend, easy drive to Bideford, barnstaple and Westwood Ho!
