Welcome to the gorgeous Swallow's Nest.
As well as a conventional kitchen, there's an alfresco, Mediterranean-inspired kitchen for cooking in nature.
The open plan kitchen sits just behind the living space.
The chic shower room is just the spot for freshening up after a day of adventures.
This historic building has an abundance of charm and character.
Not only is there a Kamado (barbecue and ceramic smoker) but there's a wood-fired pizza oven too!
The bedroom with king-sized bed is a welcoming space for a restorative break.
Sit back and relax in the roll-top bath - with a glass of wine and book in hand.
Perfectly equipped for your romantic getaway.
A bespoke retreat for two.
The warming wood-burner ensures year-round cosiness and adds a lovely atmosphere to out-of-season breaks.
Looking down from the mezzanine level to the open plan living space and out into the courtyard.
Your private courtyard is such a lovely place to relax and unwind.
From the courtyard your own gate leads to the meadow that borders the river - you are welcome to explore.
What an amazing location! Hatherland Mill Farm is shown here towards the middle of the shot - Swallow's Nest's courtyard backs onto the meadow in the foreground.
Your four-legged friend is welcome to join you on your adventure.

The friendly owners are happy to advise where the best riverside spots are for the chance to see an otter or a kingfisher.
The owners' rare breed cattle are nearby - just look at the gorgeous calf!
This traditional smallholding has earned conservation awards from Natural England and offers a wonderful opportunity to feel part of a sustainable and environmentally friendly way of living.
Wow! The wonderful setting of Hatherland Mill Farm - Swallow's Nest is the grey roof in front of the tree, near the middle of the farmstead.
The Exmoor National Park is well worth a visit. This is taken from Hadden Hill overlooking Wimbleball Lake.
Exmoor is a wonderful mixture of open moorland, deep valleys and tumbling rivers. Dulverton and Withypool are two lovely places with riverside walks and picnic spots.
You can be at the east Devon Jurassic coast in just under an hour. This is Sidmouth.

Simply perfect. We had such a magical time in Swallows Nest. The grounds are truly amazing, the river is less than a 30 second walk. We sat there watching the wildlife, kingfishers and even a Firecrest!! We also spent time swimming most days. The farm is lovely, the sheep and cows are very cute and friendly. It was simply magical. The bath was fabulous, and the property feels very private. It was honestly such a wonderful place to stay. Sadly we had to leave early due to an emergency, really do want to go back again. Don’t hesitate and simply book up Swallows nest it’s such a magical place. ...

Charming cozy place to stay on farm with dogs, sheep and cows. Lovely hosts. Upstairs bedroom is a real hideaway. Thanks.

The accommodation is beautiful, spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable. Absolutely everything is provided. Walks around are plentiful and so nice to visit the cattle in the barn. Particularly happy that we could take our two collies. There over Christmas and arrived to find our lovely hosts had left mince pies in the fridge and a real and decorated Christmas tree in the lounge along with a Christmas wreath on the door. Wonderful....
