Perfect accommodation and hosts
We were made very welcome and the cottage was perfect. The views across the Gordano valley are stunning with mist lying in the bottom , sun on the other side and Autumn colours! The facilities for dogs were equally great with plenty of recreation space and nearby dog walks.

Lovely cosy cottage
We live locally and needed somewhere dog friendly to stay for a few days, whilst having some renovation work done at home. Swallow Cottage was a great home from home and met all our needs. The cottage was well fitted out, warm and cosy. There was an area adjacent to the cottage to 'excercise' our two dogs, also plenty of walks near by. Views also great, including wild bird life.The hosts Liz and John were very friendly, helpful and left a welcome pack of essentials and treats which were appreciated. We all enjoyed our stay.

Liz and John are wonderful hosts - I completely fell in love with the cottage - it has absolutely everything and done to an amazingly high spec. Loved the mood lighting - loved the facilities, loved the nearby walk, loved the sheep and chickens and especially loved the green woodpecker. I will be going back.

Great converted piggery near Bristol and Portishead.
We have stayed here twice. Very clean, well set out accommodation with good quality fittings. Owners are very helpful and available. Highly recommend for a stay near to Bristol and Portishead area. The accommodation is down a narrow lane but fine if you take it steady.

Great little hide away
Stayed for 3 nights, great location close to motorway but didn't ruin the experience. Fabulous seeing the wildlife from the cottage. Was raining rather a bit so didn't get to do the dog walks Liz recommended hopefully be back and do them next year. Very friendly welcome, loved the little touches, really well maintained and dog friendly. Thank you 😊

Well above expectations
Swallow Cottage is beautifully designed and maintained with all comforts and facilities. The location is good for country and seaside walks as well as access to Wales, Wells, Glastonbury (close to M5). The lane is only daunting the first time; all users are sensible and respectful of others. The hosts are very friendly, warm and accessible if advice or information is needed.

Perfect break
Thanks to Liz and John for being such accommodating hosts - high standard accommodation but fantastically dog friendly too, it made a peaceful base (with plenty of great walking right on the doorstep with the reactive/high maintenance collie!) from which to visit my son in central Bristol. Beautiful setting and location and lovely attention to detail I hope to return. Rosy (ps any dog agility competitors may like to know there is a fabulous indoor school venue to hire just up the lane at Delta Agility which I recommend too)

Swallow Cottage, Clevedon
What a wonderfully well-presented and well thought out barn conversion! Bathroom/shower was better than the one in my own home! Liz and John had very kindly provided some groceries - milk, bread, biscuits, chocolate, tea, coffee, butter and marmalade. Cottage was warm and cosy which is what you need for an autumn/winter break in the English countryside in November!

Amazing few days away
Cottage for spotlessly clean and in a beautiful location. Liz & John were brilliant hosts, nothing was to much bother. The weather was very hot and they even supplied a paddling pool so our dog could cool down. Cottage was comfortable with a real home from home feel. The cottage was equipped with everything, and the fan was a god send. The little extras was a lovely touch and much appreciated. Cannot recommend this place enough, super dog friendly! Thanks again Liz & John! we will be back!
