It is hard to find anything negative to write about this hotel. A friendly welcome, a clean, comfortable modern room and ideally situated to visit the small villages and coastal towns. I look forward to visiting this hotel again.

Stayed here to attend a family party nearby. Excellent base to explore Devon/Dorset borders. Good breakfast and clean rooms. Right in the centre of the village in easy walking distance of the tramway and the scenic river Coly.

We were welcomed warmly and invited to choose our room from those available. It was difficult to choose as they were all so good. The breakfasts were excellent, with freshly prepared fruit available as well as cereals and a choice of cooked food. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend this hotel.

We liked the stay in this hotel with "only" seven rooms even though a kingsize bed would have better fitted our needs:). But it was our fault not having ordered this kind of bed. There is nothing else to complain about. We can recommend Swallows Eaves Hotel without any objection.

This hotel is fantastic, so clean and modern. I cannot praise it highly enough. The bedding and soft furnishings were immaculate. Lovely big bedroom and bathroom spotlessly clean. Home... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Swallows Eaves Hotel is a small, privately owned, wisteria-clad hotel, located in private grounds. We are in the heart of the pretty village of Colyford, near the Devon/Dorset border: where country meets coast.Elegant and stylish with contemporary touches, yet welcoming with the feel of a home away from home, we offer guests an idyllic place to relax and get away from the stresses of day to day life. Explore the Jurassic Coast; take a stroll along The Cobb in Lyme Regis or dip into the historical heart of our regional capital Exeter for shopping, theatre and entertainment.Following a major refurbishment at the start of 2012, the hotel has 7 attractive guest bedrooms, each beautifully decorated offering a high standard of hotel accommodation. Every guestroom has a digital TV, radio alarm, hairdryer, toiletries and beverage tray (which includes complimentary Devonshire mineral water). Several guestrooms have glorious views across the Axe Valley's wooded hills, while others look out into the hotel gardens & grounds. All guest bedrooms are en suite (our Classic rated rooms have a shower, whilst our Deluxe and Master rated rooms contain both bath and shower), complete with our wonderfully thick bath sheets and hand towels to pamper yourself. Every bed is made up with luxurious sheets of soft cotton for the ultimate sleeping experience. Plus books, magazines and free-to-access wi-fi all add those welcoming extras that make you feel at home. ... more   less
