"Lovely place we will go there again, fresh and clean and airy."
The weather turned chilly while we were there but the heating was adequate so we were toasty warm

"Swallow Barns is a fantastic property and we really enjoyed our stay."
Everything is finished to a high standard and was clean throughout. We liked the sense of isolation even though we were just five minutes from all the facilities in Yate.
One minor comment would be about the towels. Why present everything else to such a high standard and then present guests with a scraggy set of towels when they first arrive? Also, the outdoor light by the bedroom doesn't work properly and we tripped over the step a couple of times. These are quite picky things but worth sharing given that everything else was so good.

"Swallows Barn was a lovely property, the garden and space around it very well looked after."
The barn is comfortable and clean, we had all that was needed for the four of us . Perhaps a 4 slice toaster needed instead of a 2.. Mr Watson was very helpful and welcomed us. In all a super stay.
On the slight down side, dust under the beds,
Grubby slip mat needs attention in main bathroom.

"The barn was clean and cosy, secluded and quiet."
The beds were very comfortable, with ample storage space in the bedrooms. The showers worked very well too. We were a little concerned when we received the details of the location that it was on a farm: this wasn't mentioned in the description but no noisy machinery or bad smells! The kitchen equipment was basic, a larger frying pan would be useful. I did have to buy a hairdryer as I didn't find one. A pleasant stay with lots to do.

"Stayed at Swallow Barns for 3 weeks during house renovations and it was fabulous!"
Spotlessly clean with all the necessary home comforts- one of the best holiday cottages we have had.
Ideal location for the Cotswolds, Bath, Bristol, South Wales etc.
Owners friendly but in no way intrusive.
We had some great wildlife walks from Swallow Barns - and only 15 minutes stroll to Chipping Sodbury Waitrose was an added bonus.

"Very friendly owners."
Property was fairly clean but there was some old cereal in one kitchen cupboard and lots of crumbs. Reasonable walk into town and walks from the door across the common.
The kitchen extractor rattled quite loudly in the wind. Shelf in the shower would be good.

"We enjoyed our stay at Swallow Barns, the cottage itself was of a high standard."
The bedrooms and bathrooms were well designed. The living and dining areas were excellent. The kitchen too. The latter could be improved with some small additions to the implements provided such as tongs, a sieve and a milk jug, but these did not detract from our overall enjoyment of an attractive and comfortable and relaxing cottage. Looking forward to a return visit sometime. Many thanks to our hosts!

"We booked the cottage to stay in waiting for our house to be finished."
The cooking facilities were basic which was to be expected for a holiday property but if you were eating out most of the time adequate.
One problem was the extractor fan flap to the EnSuite which when the wind was in a certain direction made a noise all night. The owner was aware but not yet come up with a solution. The property is beautiful and comfortable.

"Lovely place located in a very quiet location, everything very comfortable and beautifully decorated, all brand new."
Colin was very nice and welcoming.
As a suggestion, a little shelf in the walk in shower to put on the shampoo and shower gel and a little bin in the bedroom,near the vanity table would be good to have.
Anyway, a fantastic place to spend a holiday.
Thank you Mary and Colin!

"Colin & Mary have created a fabulous home from home with swallow barn."
They gave us the most lovely welcome, it was easy to collect keys and access and then they just left us to enjoy our holiday knowing they were there if we needed them. Very clean and well thought out with all we needed both at the cottage and locally. Such a beautiful space to explore from.

We would definitely be back!
.
One point to make, when it’s windy the extractor fan in the en suite flaps which did keep me awake the second night. Just mentioning as maybe a little foam padding could stop this and help future guests. This in no way affected our stay, I’m a light sleeper anyway! I would fully recommend and return in future.

"We had a fantastic stay at Swallow Barns."
The owners were incredibly welcoming and kind and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The property was very well equipped, spotlessly clean and very quiet. We have stayed in many rental homes over the years and we think this is one of the very best - we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. The location is fantastic, a fairly short drive to both Bath and Bristol. It's within walking distance of the village centre and a couple of minutes' drive to a large Tesco. We would love to stay here again!
