Swallowtail Hill is a farm like no other. It’s our home and our passion and its landscape is unique
Please note…
The map above has been created by our team and gives you a pretty good idea of where everything is at Swallowtail Hill so you can see how private your accommodation is, or how far you’ll need to walk if you have friends staying in another of our cabins or cottages. For more information on things to do, see and book at Swallowtail Hill see below!
On The Farm
Peaceful walks
Our farm is 50 acres of woodland, grassland and wildflower meadow – definitely worth a walk to explore!
Honesty shop
We’ve a little tuck shop on site selling drinks, snacks and treats – including marshmallows for toasting
George & Buttons
You’ll be able to say hello to George and Buttons our resident donkeys – but please don’t feed them!
Campfire suppers
A glamping break wouldn’t be the same without a campfire supper. You can order BBQ boxes or campfire suppers from us.
Games for hire!
We’ve a range of games to hire from skittles and quoites to giant jenga and molkky
Celebrations
If you’re celebrating something talk to us about booking something special like a cake, decorations or a bottle of fizz
Food & Drink
For some, the chance to cook up a storm on the campfire is an essential part of their short break, for others having a hand with the self-catering is what having a restful holiday is all about. So we offer a range of breakfast boxes, bbq boxes, campfire suppers, picnics and teas that can be ordered in advance of your stay.
All of our grocery boxes contain locally sourced produce, organic where possible. Supplies in our shop are all ethically sourced too – organic, sustainable, palm oil free and local wherever possible.
