Fantastic girls weekend – Pho3nix1705
We spent a lovely weekend in Swallow cottage. Just perfect for a group of friends looking for some time in the country to relax and catch up. We arrived to a very warm welcome from Liz and were shown to our cottage which was comfy, clean and tidy. Cottages are located on a working farm and the games room was a great place to relax and play a few games! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a break away from busy life - fantastic location, charming cottages and friendly owners!

A beautiful place, lovely and quiet...
