    “Another fabulous stay at Swallows Loft.”

    We love this property - extremely clean and well maintained with a lovely garden which is safe for the dogs too! A short drive to the beach at Bigbury and a few miles to the nearby town of Kingsbury which has supermarkets and shops! The only reason we didn’t give 5 stars this visit was purely due to the work going on behind the property at Orchard Cottage - with the workmen elevated, if you had the back patio curtains open, they could see straight in which was a shame to keep these closed in ...

The only reason we didn’t give 5 stars this visit was purely due to the work going on behind the property at Orchard Cottage - with the workmen elevated, if you had the back patio curtains open, they could see straight in which was a shame to keep these closed in the week. But otherwise, a perfect stay again - thank you Swallows Loft!
