Overview
Set back from the westerly shoreline of Swillbrook, Swans Rest benefits from stunning views across the lake from the first-floor balcony enjoying the late afternoon and evening sunshine.


Swillbrook is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) so you will enjoy uninterrupted views over the lake as there are no water sports allowed. Completed in Summer 2017, this is one of our most popular house types offering three ground floor bedrooms, two bathrooms, and first floor living/dining benefitting from fully glazed rear elevations which provide stunning views.  

There is a fully fitted kitchen and on the second-floor mezzanine, you will find a master bedroom suite which is open plan to the living area below. The property is within a 5-minute walk of both the Restaurant and Spa facility. The owners have taken great care over the internal furnishings and have ensured a high level of fixtures and fittings with oak flooring to the main living areas and carpets to bedrooms.

For the comfort of all guests, pets are not allowed in this property. Failure to comply will lead to you being asked to leave the property and a loss of your security deposit.
