Great, quiet getaway in the countryside. Beautiful and clean residence. Major bonus points for Cider the mini horse and his goat friends! Close to some great restaurants and Longwood Gardens. 10/10 recommend!
The only photos I took all weekend were of the animals!

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!

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.

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!

Loved everything about Swallows Rest. It is such a peaceful location, so clean, had a feel of nostalgia and I felt very safe. The artwork is beautiful. I visit the area at least a few times a year and hope to stay here again.Jo Dee

Picture perfect setting close to Longwood Gardens and Winterthur. Beautiful property, cozy place to stay that was beautifully decorated, very comfortable.
