About this cottage rental

Blending in perfectly with its environment, Swallows Rest is a traditional Cotswold stone cottage, tucked into pretty gardens. The row of cottages sits on the edge of the village of Laverton, surrounded by rural views and is a very peaceful and relaxing place to stay.

Swallows Rest is a real home away from home offering a traditional style that is warm, welcoming, and comfortable. There's a spacious, open-plan kitchen-diner, separate living room and a light and airy sunroom which opens onto the enclosed rear garden. There are three well-appointed bedrooms on the first floor including one with an antique four-poster bed and a family bathroom, on the second floor the fourth bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and the most glorious of views.

This charming cottage has beautiful gardens both front and back. To the front, the pretty garden has borders filled with flowers including a magnificent Hydrangea bush and roses climbing over the front door. The rear garden is fully enclosed with a smooth lawn, planting and a stone patio, perfect for al-fresco dining and watching the vivid sunsets over Bredon Hill in the distance.

We really enjoyed the comfort and views! Everything was clean and very comfortable. The Internet was very slow, and we would have liked to know which bins needed to go out - week1/week 2 didn’t help , but it was a fantastic location.

First time to visit the Cotswolds and could not have picked a better location! The cottage was very comfortable and plenty of room for the 5 of us to spread out and relax. The neighborhood was everything we had been told about the Cotswolds. Friendly neighborhood and easy to walk to locations of interest. Well stocked cottage as well. We even grilled out, which coming from Texas was an added plus. Will not forget the three day visit for a long time!

Swallows Rest cottage is a very well presented and equipped cottage in a beautiful location. The views from the Master Bedroom are wonderful and our children enjoyed watching the steam train pass. Laverton itself is a very picturesque village and makes a great base for exploring the local area, including Broadway which is a short drive away. We would definitely recommend this property

Ideal location to visit the Cotswolds, 2mn drive to Broadway and many restaurants around. But the cottage is perfectly equiped if you want to cook and enjoy this very cosy place. The team is very reactive over communication and help if needed. Highly recommended !
