Lovely barn conversion. Very comfortable bed on the mezzanine level. We didn’t use the other beds. Smart TV for the evening. Log burner with starter kit but we didn’t need that as it was warm. It is off the beaten track which we and our dog loved. Very quiet and peaceful and our dog loved the freedom of the paddock and garden. The paddock is not fenced in but it is private and our dog doesn’t roam from us so that was fine for us. The main farmhouse is behind you but they left us to enjoy our privacy and you couldn’t even tell if they were there or not most of the time. Just the odd mower sound or very young child playing which was actually pleasant to hear. As it says in the details the lane is very bumpy with potholes so an SUV or Landrover is best for this place. I love the homely feel of the place. It is a beautiful wild life haven with swallows flying around and chittering - hence its name Swallow Barn. All you hear is bird song as it is away from any traffic noise. It’s wonderful I would highly recommend for peace and tranquility....

We loved our stay at The Swallows. It is a beautiful space and catered for all of our needs. The kitchen has everything you could imagine needing and it is a great place to sit and have a morning coffee with light pouring through the huge windows. Our boys (11 and 13) enjoyed having the outdoor games room. Even on very rainy days, there was plenty to keep us occupied - games, books, jigsaws, DVDs. The bedrooms were all comfortable and the sitting area is a great place to cosy up once darkness descends. It’s not too far to the coast, there are lots of walks locally and we hired bicycles in Okehampton. For us, it was perfect! ...

We enjoyed our stay at the Swallows, very relaxing and comfortable. Everything you need is there. It is rural and you will need to drive to get anywhere.
We would definately book again.
