Guest Reviews
- Rhonda (10/5): A must stay! A Lovely B/B - Top notch! This B/B is delightful with our host, Sam being as sweet as can be and very accommodating. The weekend English breakfast was delicious! Thank you. Nothing
- Charlotte (10/5): -
- Chris (10/5): -
- Rod (10/5): - Great welcome from host
- Calvin (10/5): -
- Calvin (10/5): We stayed here as we were getting married nearby and it was great. The property is wonderful, clean and very quiet. Sam, - Beautiful BnB in a beautiful village.
- Amy (10/5): - What did I like? Everything! The room, the freshly baked cookies and bread, the roll top bath, the quiet location, the hosts - it was all wonderful Nothing. Everything was great.
- David (10/5): Friendly, clean and comfortable country stay - There was ample parking when we arrived (petrol car, so I can speak to charging facilities)
We were given good instructions on how to access the room and we met one of the owners on arrival.
The room was on the ground floor, but I can’t speak for disabled access.
The room was very clean and tidy, with excellent WiFi @29Mbps, so you could easily work from the room
There was hot water for two baths in quick succession (the other rooms were also occupied)
There was no discernible ambient noise from the other guests
The views were great - lots of sheep!
The bed was very comfortable and there were enough good, soft towels
The breakfast was very good with a wide menu variety to choose from (we ate in our room, it there is a communal breakfast table) Hmmm…don’t know. We had a really pleasant experience.
- Robert (9/5): Lovely hosts - thank you - Very quiet location with very friendly host. Large bedroom with super comfy bed. Great shower. Nice touches like home-made cookies left for us. Good choice for breakfast and very fresh. It's only a small establishment, breakfast is served at a big communal table so you are potentially eating with other guests that you feel you have to chat with. Some might like this but we prefer our peace and quiet. Having said that there is an in-room "Breakfast tray" option.
- Wendy (10/5): Gorgeous accommodation with fabulous breakfast and great host - Breakfast was delicious as were the home cooked cookies each day. Extremely flexible in providing a service when I was unsure of my continuing stay. Bath was amazing. Perfect
- Sharon (10/5): Excellent stay - Lovely surroundings and room. Very spacious and comfortable. Nothing
- Allan (10/5): 1st class - Great host, zero complaints, every aspect was excellent Nothing
- Christopher (10/5): -

- Valerie (10/5): - Peaceful location and luxury room and facilities
- Wendy (10/5): Exceptional service and beautiful accommodation. Perfect! - I had to stay here unexpectedly due to a medical issue with husband. Sam was brilliant and very accommodating to my circumstances.
The decor and ambience is very relaxed and homely, superb home cooked cookies and croissants. Great honesty bar, cant fault this place! Nothing, it was perfect
- Lozfoz91 (10/5): We absolutely loved our time there and will definitely be returning. - Breakfast was absolutely fantastic, host couldn't have been more helpful, the cleanest room and bathroom I've ever stayed in, facilities were perfect, extra help was offered at every opportunity. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. Location was spot on and we were very sad to leave. The bed was the perfect size for my 6ft 4in husband and it was very comfortable! Absolutely nothing.
- Claire, UK (10/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): - Sam was extremely helpful before we even arrived by offering us assistance with booking an evening meal. When we arrived we found we had a lovely room, clean and with great facilities and homemade cookies to welcome us. Breakfast was lovely, the choice of what to have was very good. We will be returning and thoroughly recommend staying here. Nothing, this was an exceptional B&B. The facilities are in a self contained annex to the main house and the only road noise we heard was a couple of horses walking by. Lovely B&B in a very pretty village.

- Penelope (10/5): An exceptional BnB - The Swallows Rest BnB lived up to all its wonderful reviews. The welcome was warm, service always came with a smile, and nothing was too much trouble. It was a 'home away from home' and the breakfasts were just out of this world. Thank you Sam and goodluck with your exciting new ventures. Penny and Roger
- Lesley (9/5): Cosy and comfortable - Clean and comfortable, home made cookies were delicious 🤤
Owner was great, so accommodating, provided me with some bubble bath for a lovely warm bath and called me in advance to ask if I’d like a reservation making at a local pub for dinner. Would have preferred a full english breakfast but this is only an option on weekends however, the poached eggs on toast were very good
- william (9/5): -
- Mattsson (10/5): - Det var ett väldigt mysigt ställe där man kände sig välkommen på med hembakta kakor när vi kom. Supermysigt rum med allt vi behövde. Fantastisk frukost som vi dessutom kunde beställa in till rummet, perfekt! .

- Tony (10/5): The best Band B I have ever stayed in. - Breakfast was amazing, plenty of choice and good quality. Loved the Fridge where you could pay for items by leaving the money in the Piggy bank. Hard to think of a way to make it better, Sam does an amazing job.
- Allie (10/5): Excellent host beautiful rooms great setting, bonus of a wonderful breakfast - Fabulous rooms, host was very friendly and made us very welcome, including home made chocolate cookies when we arrived! Excellent choice for breakfast, home made bread and local honey , fresh fruit , Sam was an excellent host

- Catherine (10/5): I didn’t want to leave! - This was a wonderfully relaxing stay - we enjoyed sitting in the garden, going for walks in the village, and it’s well-positioned to explore Northamptonshire. The property owner was very friendly and helpful, and provides a lovely breakfast.
- glen (10/5): Short stay at the swallows rest. - The hosts were lovely and couldn't be more accommodating. Sam was very kind and booked a restaurant, which was perfect for me and my young daughter. The room was really clean and comfortable, and we were welcomed with freshly baked cookies which was a nice gesture. The opportunity to meet other guests at breakfast was a lovely addition to our stay. My daughter loved the location, specifically the various wildlife we encountered during our stay in the village. There was nothing about our stay that we didn't like.
- Jayne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tiffenny (8/5): Very good - Sam was an excellent host, very friendly. The Swallows was a large room with a large bathroom. It was nicely decorated and very clean. The breakfast was very good. Parking on site. Desk in the room and wifi were both useful. Large TV which I didn't get around to trying. For me the pillows and mattress were a little too firm. The large bed was actually two singles joined together so there was a join in the centre. I chose this accommodation based on its excellent reviews and it looking like a quiet place where I could get an early night and so I'd have preferred a 'quiet after 10pm rule' as I could hear various comings and goings until around 10.30, eg people going into the garden, and people in the dining area, I understand that 10.30pm is not late for some people and other people staying on other occasions might not hear the same as me, I was also unlucky with hearing what I think were birds tapping on roof until very late.
- Natalie (10/5): Perfect stay - A lovely village the property had
Beautiful spacious rooms and the bath was big enough and deep enough for 2.
Fantastic friendly owner
Use of the beautiful gardens small and quaint dinning room with Fantastic choic of breakfast and the option to have breakfast in bed Absolutely nothing

Helpful host who provided breakfast choices, and fresh milk and water for refreshments daily. Quiet location There was nothing to dislike about this accommodation
- John (10/5): Do not look any further - The whole package was perfect That we couldn't stay any longer
- Susan (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful facility with friendly and helpful host. There is a personal touch that adds to the homely and farm atmosphere! The rooms are spacious with everything you need. Beautiful garden.
- Sharon (10/5): - This is a wonderful B&B tucked away in the Northamptonshire village of Brigstock. We stayed in The Willow room for 2 nights. The room has a super comfy king size bed, with that home from home feeling. The roll top bath and walk in shower was a pleasant surprise! Sam was the most gracious host, her attention to detail, super breakfast choices, and cookie treats in our room.
We will most definitely be back to Swallows Rest on our next UK visit, and have no hesitation in recommending a stay here.
- Samantha (10/5): Perfection - The surroundings are stunning, the garden is so peaceful. The rooms are lovely lots of space and everything is to a high standard and the fridge is an added extra for the rooms too. Absolutely nothing.
- Zosienx (10/5): A lovely stay with a stunning garden, friendly host, and warm village charm. - I had a wonderful stay! The breakfast was absolutely amazing - fresh, delicious, and a perfect start to the day. The host was incredibly helpful and friendly, always ready to assist with a warm smile. The place was spotless, stylish, and felt very welcoming. The village itself was adorable, full of charm and kind-hearted people who were always happy to help. I especially appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful surroundings – it was the perfect getaway. Highly recommended! -

- Warren (10/5): A lovely place to relax - “Home from home” is a reasonable phrase to use. The bedroom is spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Set in a quiet rural location within easy walking distance of pubs, restaurants and a small bakery/coffee shop. The hostess is lovely and attentive. Off road parking is great too, on a clean gravel drive very close to the entrance, so no lugging of cases for long distances! Food was very pleasant, with lots of choice to suit all tastes. Very reasonable pricing. Exactly what we were looking for. Nothing really! It may be worth mentioning that the setting is a small (very lovely) village, but with narrow streets, so motor homes or larger vans could not negotiate the streets easily.
- Sarah (10/5): overnight stay - Beautifully clean and comfortable room. Lovely breakfast and very friendly and helpful owner. Thank you for having us!
