The Swallows Rest Bed & Breakfast

We went here as a night of luxury ahead of 4 nights camping at the Greenbelt festival. From the moment we arrived we knew we'd hit the jackpot. A warm welcome, easy parking and a fantastic setting in a truly beautiful village. The room was fantastic and beautifully decorated - and the inclusion of a long deep bath with a plentiful supply of hot water was just what my back needed after a lengthy drive ahead of sleeping in a tent. The way the place is run relaxes you from the start - including an honesty box for snacks and chilled beers. The local village has 2 great friendly pubs and a co-op and is stunning. To be honest I'd already decided this would get 10/10 for me (or 5 stars) before we had the breakfast. After the breakfast I would give it 12/10 or 6 stars (but can't alas). A lovely selection of properly sourced local ingredients, healthy and delicious. As a meat eater I was a bit dubious about the lack of a 'full english', but the options we're nutritious, and beautifully presented - and a delight. Highly recommended and a jewel of a find. Thanks for a fantastic stay.

We first stayed for 3 nights in 2024 and returned again in August this year, whilst attending the nearby Greenbelt Festival. The rooms are spacious, clean and the bed comfortable. Our room (Willow) had both a bath and a shower. The location is quiet, conducive for a good nights rest, but in an interesting village that has a shop and two pubs. The food Sam lays on for breakfast is freshly made and delicious, with a lovely home made cookie to look forward to on return in the afternoon/evening. If you want a top notch experience with great food, look no further. We've stayed in lots of B and B's over the years, but this is up there with the best and we look forward to returning

Down a quiet lane in a pretty Northamptonshire village the Swallows Nest is a little gem. I was warmly welcomed by Sam, the owner, and shown into the the beautifully appointed Swallows room which looked out to the little courtyard garden and the fields beyond. The king-sized bed was very comfortable, the room was spotlessly clean and there was everything needed for my stay - including quality teas and coffees and a huge cookie! There was a large selection of items on the breakfast menu and everything I had was really delicious. Sam was a great host and I look forward to another stay at the Swallows Nest.

This was our second visit to The Swallows B&B and I would recommend it to anyone, it is, without doubt, the best B&B we have ever stayed at. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious and extremely comfortable and the breakfasts are excellent. Sam, the owner, made us very welcome and we look forward to staying there again.

An absolutely amazing B&B, one of the very best I have used, the rooms are clean, very comfortable, and in a great village. Sam the host was warm, friendly and very helpful, cookies were amazing. We will certainly use again when back in the area.

The hosts are fantastic, offering a warm and friendly atmosphere on arrival. Sam was really helpful, making dining recommendations and even booking a tavke for us during our visit. The room was extremey clean and comfortable and the host provided filtered water and home baked cookies for us.
