Idyllic

We've stayed at Swallow's Rest often and it never fails to charm us all over again. It's well situated but feels like the country with the farm smells, the rolling grass. Everything we need is included in the place. And we like the host a lot.

Enjoyable rural getaway

This is a perfect place to get away from the city for a few days. We used it as a base to visit Longwood (10-15 minutes away) and Chanticleer gardens. Henry was a friendly and helpful host.
