Like a previous review we stayed at the Swallows after having attended a funeral. Long trip so decided to make a weekend of it. The Swallows is a very comfortable guest house located just far enough from town to ensure a good quiet nights sleep. Great breakfast all freshly cooked to order. No hesitation in recommending 100%

We stayed at The Swallows for two nights. Sadly it was because we were attending a funeral. This is an extremely welcoming guest house. Pleasant room, albeit it would have been on the small side for a longer stay. Excellent breakfast - scrambled eggs cooked properly not in a microwave - and high quality bacon and sausages. Landlady could not... More

We booked the Swallows for a 3 day quick break. It was exactly what you'd expect from a well run guest house. Nice and pretty room. Lovely breakfast. Lovely lady in charge. Really helpful and fun and friendly. 3 minutes walk to the beach. Finally if you want a great nights sleep and a stroll into town or to the... More

I stayed for one night in April as a stopover on the way to Cornwall for boot camp- in preparation for 3 days of punishing exercises I filled up on a fantastic breakfast in the morning! My single room was small (as warned) but it was clean, cosy and had everything I needed. The bed was very comfortable and I... More

We had one night at The Swallows after attending a wedding at the nearby Royal Beacon hotel. As the wedding was at 1pm we asked if we could arrive a little early to drop off our belongings and change, they very kindly made sure our room was ready and even complimented us on our transformation from travellers into wedding guests!...

A three night stay at this Exmouth B+B proved to be a very pleasant experience. Convenient to both the sea front and the town centre,with its efficient road and rail links to Exeter and nearby towns. The Swallows is well run,clean and comes with an excellent breakfast. I would certainly pay a return visit.

For ten years I was a regular visitor at the Swallows whenever I visited Exmouth on business. This time I came with my family, and once again I have enjoyed the hospitality and warmth of the host, Filippo, who still does his utmost for the comfort of his guests. The Swallows is a beautiful guesthouse close to the seafront and... More
