I couldn't be more pleased with our stay. What a lovely view to enjoy and the accommodation is close to a gorgeous walk through nearby fields. Short drive to Battle if you need a day out, but far enough away from the summer holiday busyness of the town. Highly recommended.

Really beautiful, peaceful setting; bright, light and well- equipped space (making up for the small bedrooms); lots of hot water and excellent CH; well-located for our family get-together nearby; friendly landlord and generous welcoming goodies.We would stay again, and definitely recommend - thank you.
lovely rural cottage in East Sussex tho check internet is working
Great quiet spot and lookout from terrace. Bedrooms very small but good bathrooms and lounge. Our only problem was lack of WiFi and a poor phone signal. It was very frustrating not to have access to look things up/contact family etc on the Internet though we had expected the Internet to be provided. Owners said they had changed providers and this led to a problem they were trying to solve.

Lovely place to stay! Lovely couple who own the barn and who would help you with anything. Lovely walks, goats roaming around and can come up to the decking to feed. Two lovely outside spaces, decking and patio.
The place was immaculate, and had anything and everything you could ever need equipment wise.
Definitely will be going back!

If you want to get away from it all (but still be striking distance from attractions if you want them) it's a great cottage. Set in a beautiful location in a truly rural setting, the cottage offers plenty of options for walks right from the door. Battle Abby and the sea side are just a short hop away too.
As for the cottage itself, it is good value for money. The bedrooms are a bit too small, but it is not a real problem as the rest of the cottage doesn't feel small for four people and I'm sure the property would be more expensive if the bedrooms were bigger.
The cottage was also one of the best stocked cottage for kitchen equipment and the treats that the owners left were truly appreciated.
It was just right for a low key break with our two teens.

The cottage was beautifully finished and furnished, complete in every way. The owners' home is here too and they were most kind, helpful and welcoming. The location is lovely, peaceful with a splendid view from the deck over the paddock to a pond and stream at the edge of woodland. Four golden (their colour) goats and two little ponies, were friendly and a delight to us adults; children would be entranced by them. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay both because of the comfortable evenings and the many visits we made in our three full days. Only regret was it not being cold enough to justify putting on the wood-burning stove. Our thanks to the owners. The dog enjoyed it too!

We have just returned from an enjoyable week in swallows barn. The owners were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The equipping of the cottage was well thought out including throws in the living room to snuggle up in, Netflix and a reading lamp. The property was well positioned to catch the sun on the patio and the deck. We looked out on beautiful countryside and enjoyed watching the goats and ponies.

Had a lovely stay at swallows barn. Very comfortable with good quality furnishings and very well equipped with all you need. There is a choice of a bath or shower room, the shower was nice and powerful.
The owners are very friendly and helpful and make you feel at home.
Lovely home made cake when arrived and fresh eggs, biscuits, milk, and a bottle of juice all added to that personal touch even went home with a gift of freshly home made jam.
My elderly mum and dog loved it, we loved sitting outside feeding the goats and seeing the ponies and enjoying the view.

Always a joy to have coffee and croissants on the balcony overlooking the field with the goats for company.

Warm welcome from owners on arrival with welcome pack consisting of tea/coffee/cakes and apple juice. Cottage comfortable but bedrooms and shower room rather small but apart from that everything was fine. Plenty of places to visit nearby such as coast and houses and gardens.
Would stay again if visiting the area.
