Dairy Cottage Reviews

Christopher
Lovely warm clean home from home and the owners could not be nicer . Very helpful . The location is so good and handy for trips out and about .
Sarah
What a find! Lovely traditional cottage, spotlessly clean, warm and very comfortable. A yummy cream tea left for our arrival, which we very much appreciated. Great position for exploring. Nice garden right next to the river. Swimbridge is a quiet and quaint Village and we will certainly recommend Dairy Cottage.

We have stayed at both properties a few times and they are just perfect for us . The owners could not be nicer . Definitely in a super location and everything you need for a cosy break away

Fantastic cottage in a great location with easy access to A361. Very comfy double bed, powerful shower, well stocked kitchen utensils, washing machine (+ washing line in garden) is a bonus, garden is a little gem as it overlooks the stream with a couple of comfortable seating options. Thank You Colin & Lee for making us feel so welcome and obliging when we asked questions.... the homemade scones are delicious. We would love to return.
