We stayed here for a few days last Easter and were very pleased. The owners are lovely and make delicious and distinctive breakfasts that always set us up for a long day of walking along the coastal paths and kept us going until we got back and had a great dinner in the Wheelwright Arms just down the road.

We stayed at Swan Hill House for four days and didn't want to leave. We were welcomed and shown to our room by Simon. Our room had lovely views over the Axe Valley. The room itself was beautifully decorated and immaculate (as was the rest of the house). The fridge contained fresh milk and water which was replenished daily. The... More

We booked to stay at the Swan Hill House mainly for the reason of visiting River Cottage HQ for a Saturday night event but the stay at Swan Hill House was also brilliant. Simon & Libby are a lovely couple and totally deserve any awards or commendations that come their way for hosting such wonderful accomodation. Room 6 which we... More

Simon and Libby are superb hosts and run a lovely B&B, which I would choose above any hotel we have stayed in. The dairy free biscuits in our room was the first sign that we would enjoy our stay with them. They provided a deliciious and varied breakfast to suit our dietary needs. Their attention to detail is not just... More

We had booked The River Cottage as a surprise birthday treat for a friend and chose Swan Hill for it's location and excellent reviews. We were not disappointed. Simon was in on the surprise, gave helpful advice re taxis and chilled our champagne! We had two upgraded rooms which were delightful, although I'm sure all rooms would have been great.... More

Once again we found Simon and Libby perfect hosts for our winter 2012 stay in their lovely East Devon B&B. The en-suite rooms are large and artistically decorated in the boutique style. Our bed was massive and comfortable. There was a very wide choice at the imaginatively and expertly prepared breakfast. We could not fault our stay in any way. More

Swan Hill House is an exceptional B&B, with beautifully decorated rooms, quality furnshings and very comfy beds. On arrival we were met in the car park by Simon who helped us with our bags and provided tea and delicious cake in the drawing room once we'd had some time to settle in. Simon and Libby are very friendly and happy... More

We stayed here for two nights at the end of our mini-moon and as a base to take part in a Friday night at River Cottage. The B&B and its owners were absolutely fantastic. The breakfasts were amazing and nothing appeared to be too much to do! Would definitely recommend and will no doubt be back in the future!! More
