Brilliant facilities and position to access most destinations in South Devon within 30 minutes. An information folder would have been helpful.

It was so warm and cosy and in a lovely secluded location. The pool was great and also warm, so comfortable for winter use. The owners added extra touches such as a beautiful Christmas tree and a lovely cake. We will definitely return, maybe a summer visit would be nice so we can sit in the lovely garden and enjoy the views. Thank you for everything. I loved it so much I wanted to stay.

We were celebrating 3 very special birthdays and Swallows Reach was the perfect place to celebrate. There was plenty of room 8 adults didnât feel on top of each other. A really beautiful property with a home from home feel.
