“Arrived at 2 pm, front desk asked us to come back at 3, eventually checked-in at 3 ish, front desk informed that the Spa closes at 4:30. Rushed to the Spa straight after check-in, and the woman at Spa told us the Spa closes at 3:45 instead because they need time to "clean-up". So we ended up spending 15 mins at the Spa.. Went to the Spa next morning, only to find out the Spa was closed the whole day due to "maintenance"!
Complained to the front desk when checked-out, and the lady said "well,……
“ This is a wonderful B&B tucked away in the Northamptonshire village of Brigstock. We stayed in The Willow room for 2 nights. The room has a super comfy king size bed, with that home from home feeling. The roll top bath and walk in shower was a pleasant surprise! Sam was the most gracious host, her attention to detail, super breakfast choices, and cookie treats in our room.
We will most definitely be back to Swallows Rest on our next UK visit, and have no hesitation in recommending a stay here.”
“This is very well appointed, the owners have covered all the small things that you would want in a room. Some lovely touches and room is very welcoming look when you arrive.”
“Wonderful hostess who kept me informed throughout and went the extra mile to make my stay great.
House is wonderful and very peaceful.
Bedroom was large with very comfy bed and the bathroom was awesome. Underfoot heating so showering was excellent.
Once the light went out you couldn’t see you hand in front of your face.
Perfect nights sleep on both nights and full use of kitchen when required.
A real gem. ”
“A charming stay in a beautifully restored old coaching house. This family-run hotel is warm, cozy, and full of character. The atmosphere is welcoming from the moment you arrive, with friendly owners who go out of their way to make you feel at home. The food is excellent, homemade, hearty, and full of flavour.
”
“The location of the hotel was not in the town centre which was misleading. The staffs were helpful and the restaurant near the hotel provided good and .cheap food”
“room beautifully prepared and well equipped for short stay. 11 year old grandson stayed in family room with us and there was plenty of space to accommodate all three of us. Will definitely book again for future get togethers. ”
“Regular visitor. Always clean, friendly staff, lovely rooms and great food. Only minor criticism would be that there is typically only one staff member on breakfast/check-out which can mean a few minutes waiting, but other than that, an excellent place to stay !”
