The quiet Eden village of Skirwith is home to Swallow's Rest, a beautiful barn conversion for two people. This characterful self catering cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway as the interior has been lovingly refurbished to provide a high quality, luxurious oasis. The owners of Swallow's Rest have renovated the interior to a high standard, exposing the original roof trusses and purlins and creating a contemporary yet cosy space for two. The barn is built from the local Eden sandstone, with a beautiful external staircase leading to the entrance door.

Swallow's Rest does not accept children, infants or pets and is therefore perfect for an adult getaway, enjoying a glass of wine or two at the top of the steps, or snuggling up on the sofa in front of the woodburner.
