Swallows End

Summary:

Chic Ground-Floor Apartment with Wood-Fired Hot Tub & Access to Heated Swimming Pool



Escape to Swallows End, a beautifully styled ground-floor apartment designed for couples seeking peace, luxury and natural beauty. Nestled in the Teign Valley at the gateway to Dartmoor National Park, this chic countryside retreat blends Scandi-inspired interiors with indulgent private outdoor living, including a natural Swedish-style wood-fired hot tub.



The Space:

One of only two boutique apartments on a quiet private estate, Swallows End offers exclusive tranquillity with the added benefit of shared premium leisure facilities: a vaulted indoor heated pool, a rejuvenating sauna, and serene wooded gardens.



Pets are accepted and are chargeable.



A Stylish Country Escape

Step into contemporary comfort with an open-plan lounge-kitchen-diner featuring rustic flagstone flooring, warm wooden furnishings, plush seating, and a smart TV. With upgraded Starlink high-speed Wi-Fi, you can remain connected — if you choose to be.



The modern kitchen includes everything needed for effortless self-catering, from an electric hob and Nespresso coffee machine to a well-equipped utility area with washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher — ideal after long walks on the moors.



Relax in the calming double bedroom complete with soft tones, French-inspired décor, and a second smart TV for slow, indulgent mornings. A contemporary bathroom with shower-over-bath and LED mirror completes the comfort.



Your Own Outdoor Sanctuary

Outside, a secluded stone-walled courtyard offers space to unwind with a gas BBQ, outdoor seating, and the highlight — a private wood-fired hot tub, perfect for stargazing, soaking after walks, or cosy evenings with a chilled drink.



You’ll also have access to the stunning, newly refurbished indoor heated pool and sauna, ideal for year-round relaxation. Please note, the indoor heated swimming pool will be shared with any other customers staying on site also.



Guest Access:

Swallows End is largely a mobility-friendly property on the ground floor; please note that the doors are of standard width and there is a lip through the entrance door. There are steps into the property, and into the bathroom, as well as stairs leading to the pool.



The Neighborhood:

Rolling hills? Stunning walks? Magical waterfalls? This apartment has all that and more, thanks to its fantastic South Devon location in the pretty Teign Valley. It’s right on the edge of the legendary Dartmoor National Park, where you can walk, cycle and pony trek to your heart’s content, taking in wild and rugged views. You’re just a short distance from Stover Country Park, a 114-acre nature reserve where wildlife and nature abound. Follow the 90-metre aerial walkway and explore the Ted Hughes Poetry Trail, which features some of the late poet laureate’s best-loved nature poems, with illustrations by Raymond Briggs. Lose yourself among the ancient woodland, waterfalls and lakes of Canonteign Falls or try Kennick, Trenchford, and Tottiford reservoirs for easy and relaxing walking.



Stunning coastal views can be found on the English Riviera. For a relaxed sightseeing tour, take the Riviera Line, the coastal railway route running between Exeter and Paignton, which stops at many of the region’s most interesting and beautiful towns along the way, including Dawlish and Torquay. If you fancy a beach day, it’s a 40-minute drive to Torbay, where there are loads of hidden sandy coves and pretty harbour villages to explore. Twelve miles and 25 minutes' drive to the south is the pretty seaside town of Dawlish, famous for its sandy beachfront, colourful huts and black swans. The bright lights, eateries and entertainment of Exmouth or Exeter can all be reached within 40 minutes.



If you’re a foodie, there’s lots of options, from super-posh Gidleigh Park near Chagford to the high-end Manor Inn at Lower Ashton to the Teign House Inn up the valley near Christow. Other authentic Dartmoor boozers to try are the Bridford Inn at Bridford for a real country atmosphere and good food, the Artichoke at Christow for traditional pub grub and the Cridford Inn at Trusham, one of the oldest pubs in Devon.
