Beautiful peaceful retreat

We came for our daughter’s graduation from UDel and even though it was a little far out of town it was the perfect getaway to chill out between events. Host were great and place was clean and very nicely appointed. We would definitely recommend and return! Goats were so fun to interact with!

Delightful in every way

Comfortably furnished with thoughtful details and an artistic eye.... the entry way is its own self-contained little art gallery. Idyllic countryside setting, complete with goats, chickens, a pony, and of course - nesting swallows. We were sad to leave, and hope to visit again. Highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway.

Beautiful and quaint cottage

Exceptionally peaceful location, situated on a very scenic farmstead. This well appointed and wonderfully decorated cottage had everything we needed for a great 2 day stay. The owners were especially accommodating and friendly. We will stay here again soon.

Idyllic

We've stayed at Swallow's Rest often and it never fails to charm us all over again. It's well situated but feels like the country with the farm smells, the rolling grass. Everything we need is included in the place. And we like the host a lot.

Great place close to gardens and hiking

This is a wonderful place to stay. It's clean, comfortable and located in a nice rural setting. The owner is a great resource for finding all the best local hiking trails. It's conveniently located to visit both Longwood Gardens and Mt. Cuba Center. Highly recommend.

Charming Countryside Stay

We have stayed at Swallow’s Nest twice and both times we’ve had excellent experiences. The moment you you park and enter the property, you can feel any stress melt away. Very close to many good restaurants and historic attractions. You’ll enjoy your stay!

GORGEOUS

Henry's place was immaculate and charming and felt incredibly luxe. It was spotlessly and obviously clean and the details that went into the space were clear. The farm settings was so calm and peaceful and felt isolated despite the main house being visible from the doorway. Henry came to say hi and we chatted for a few and made me aware of his accessibility and then there was no need for anything else. The bed was VERY comfortable. Climate controls worked flawlessly. The bathroom was so clean and practical, even for a tall person, and everything was solidly built. The place is covered in local art and incredibly tasteful and well furnished. Nothing bare bones or "rental" about it. Nothing felt cheap or disposable. This is a luxury stay and I will absolutely seek it out in the future if I visit the area.
