Swallows Lodge

Very friendly hosts.

Great area for walking and plane spotting.

Swallows lodge is the perfect place for a relaxing week or two.

Hosts are amazing and very accommodating. The Lodge is beautifully appointed with everything you could possibly need and spotlessly clean. Feels like you're in the middle of nowhere but so close to any shops and amenities you could possibly need. The local train station is only a 45 minute journey to Central London. We loved our stay and are eager to return as soon as possible. Highly recommend.

Had a fabulous week in the perfect place.

This property is perfect in every way, don’t look anywhere else book it. Walks from the door, peace and quiet. I wish I could stay forever. Everything has been thought of in this property. Nothing could be improved it was just perfect. The most comfortable beds and homely feeling. Plenty to see in the area. Lovely owners live near by but leave you to enjoy your holiday. If I ever need to be back in the area I will certainly book again. We had a fabulous stay. Thank you so much

Great place, felt at home.

Had everything we needed. Great location on a farm. Made to feel very welcome and really enjoyed the peace and quiet whilst still being a short distance from shops and good pubs in the car. Would definately go back. Chris and Emily

Thank you for an excellent stay.

Spacious, comfortable, well equipped home with a super wood stove which we needed this week. Lovely walks in sunshine and a brisk easterly wind. And a wonderful Christmas evening at Hever Castle. Excellent and attentive hosts. A perfect base to explore North West Kent at any time of year.

Very informative email from Polly a few weeks before our holiday including clear directions on how to get there.

Property was clean, well maintained and cosy with a very well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the eggs and sausages from the farm and the beautiful dahlias. Our family really enjoyed our week at Swallows lodge and would thoroughly recommend.

Lovely property, very friendly but not-obtrusive hosts.

Would definitely stay again.

We had an amazing stay at Swallows Lodge.

It is pristine with lots of useful and thoughtful amenities. Polly and Rod were such friendly hosts who made our stay even better. Nelson the dog was an equally welcoming host and was a hit with the kids. Nelson didn't come into the cottage and was a very well behaved ( and dealt with slightly nervous kids/ grandparents very well)!! The cottage is in a very convenient location for trips to Brighton, London and the beaches. The kids are already planning their next trip to Swallows Lodge!! Thanks again for a wonderful stay!

We have just returned from a lovely week at Swallows Lodge.

The lodge was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and in a wonderfully peaceful setting. Lots of great bridle paths just outside your front door to explore. Plenty of NT properties nearby. Chartwell, Hever Castle & Standen House were all delightful. If you're a fan of Winnie the Pooh a visit to Pooh Corner is a must. Rod & Polly and their family were great hosts (not forgetting Nelson of course). We hope to be back for another visit soon.

A beautiful cottage in a lovely, quiet area.

Easy to get to so a very good base for exploring the area which had far more than we could look at in a week. Beds were really comfortable and everything worked perfectly. The owners were really welcoming and friendly and the eggs and sausages were much appreciated.

Another a great visit to Swallows Lodge, Hoopers Farm, Edenbridge in Surrey.

The accommodation is brilliant and we were blessed with some great weather. We're on a working farm that still provides a peaceful environment with birdsong in abundance. Even the regular planes landing at nearby Gatwick Airport were perfectly acceptable noise intrusions. Polly and Rod are great hosts with whom we enjoyed a very pleasant evening dining outside. There are so many places to visit around here that we have had a fairly hectic but extremely enjoyable week. We will definitely be back for another visit.

We had such a relaxing and enjoyable holiday at 'Swallows Lodge'.

The accommodation was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Despite their busy schedule our hosts, Rod and Polly went out of their way to be welcoming and helpful, passing on lots of useful information about the area. The surrounding scenery was idyllic and we really enjoyed walking along the different bridle paths - but especially the one which led to 'The Plough' pub, where we relaxed in the garden with a refreshing glass of cider. The holiday was just perfect! Thank you

Hoopers Farm is ideally located around many interesting places, such as Hever Castle, Nymans or the Seven Sisters.

Swallows lodge is an outstanding cottage, with a high quality interior and we really enjoyed our time here. It is a pleasure to use the footpaths directly in front of the house. Polly and rod are great hosts, and always had time for a quick chat when their work on the farm allowed. All in all 5 stars and thumbs up.

Staying at Swallows Lodge you will find a warm welcome in clean and tidy surroundings.

Enjoy the peace of birdsong, the young calves finding their feet. Perfect location for visiting NT properties and Hever Castle. Polly and Rod excellent hosts, thanks for a wonderful visit. Sausages and eggs were yummy!

We had a fabulous stay at Swallows Lodge in February 2025.

The house was clean and comfortable with a top quality finish. The hosts could not have done more to meet the requests of our family and we would love to visit again one day!

What a lovely property!

We had an excellent Christmas week and were extremely comfortable. The log fire and Christmas tree created the atmosphere and we slept soundly every night. Hector Hound was delighted with the walks.

Stunning cottage!

Spacious, comfy and warm! Finished to a very high standard with luscious beds and hot flowing showers. Short walk across rolling fields to a country pub. The owners took time out of their busy life to show us around all the animals which was very special! 10/10 Perfect!

We had a fabulous time and loved the property.

What a beautiful place and the owners are fantastic. They made our stay perfect. A Huge Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had a lovely time at Swallows Lodge, everything was perfect.

Really friendly and helpful people who run the farm and the Air BnB.

This is a lovely place to stay.

The owners live on site and were welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable about the area and things to do.

nice clean & comfy property, friendly & helpfull owners

Very nice clean lodge.

Well equiped. Polly was a great host. Warm and welcoming. Patient when answering my questions on regenerative farming and I learnt a lot. Great location for accessing numerous historical locations nearby. Lovely property. A big thank you Polly.

Swallows Lodge was amazing.

Craftsmanship that went into the build was wonderful. Facilities excellent. Best holiday let we have stayed in by far Highly recommend

Beautiful cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Lots of places to visit within a reasonable distance (especially National Trust) and located on a working farm. Great location for bird watchers and plane spotters. The owners are great hosts and very keen to ensure your stay is perfect. The fridge in the kitchen is small for the number of potential guests (6) but the owners do have a cold store available if required. Looking forward to going back next year.

We loved our stay in this well thought out and spacious modern conversion located in the middle of an environmentally friendly small family farm whose on-site owners were always happy to chat without ever being intrusive.

With plenty of footpaths and bridleways between hedges thick with hazel and holly, honeysuckle and dog rose leading to Spring bluebell woods, Swallows Lodge really is a peaceful place to relax and enjoy the countryside. National Trust members will find many local properties to visit and explore, and there are even local stations at Lingfield or Edenbridge for days out in London.

We had a fantastic stay at Swallows Lodge.

We stayed as a group of 6, 4 adults and 2 older children, and the spacious living spaces and bedrooms meant there was plenty of room for all to relax. The cottage is well equipped with all we needed for our stay. We were lucky to be staying when there had been new arrivals on the farm and a highlight of our stay was a tour of the farm with Polly. Polly and the family made us feel very welcome and guided us to some pretty walks and viewpoints from the lodge.

The directions were clean and it was easy to find.

The house was incredibly clean upon arrival. All the rooms were a good size and we were able to make the house toddler proof with ease. 3 bathrooms were well equipped with good showers. The kitchen had everything we needed. Tea, coffee and some fantastic sausages from the farm were provided which was a nice touch. Our hosts were incredibly welcoming and we're kind enough to show us round the farm during our stay. All in all we had a lovely break and would recommend this property to anyone and everyone.

Swallows cottage has been beautifully put together with a superb finish and lovely essentials and extras that made our stay the more enjoyable and comfortable.

A perfect place as a retreat and a family get together and Polly and Rod are wonderful hosts. Located in beautiful countryside and close to lots of amenities. We loved our stay here.

Had a wonderful stay for Christmas!

The property was perfect: extremely clean; comfortable; and we had everything we needed. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We had some lovely country walks from the property and visited a lot of the local attractions. We were sad to leave and would definitely like to stay again.

We’ve had the most wonderful 5 day stay at Swallows Lodge.

The cottage was spotlessly clean and furnished to a very high standard. The kitchen was equipped with everything you could need. The beds were super comfy with quality linen and duvets. Bathrooms were also spotlessly clean and the showers had excellent pressure. The log burning stove gave off a lovely warmth which added to the ambience. The information provided in the cottage in respect of using appliances etc and local services and places of interest was extremely comprehensive The owners left some sausages, minced beef, fresh milk and tea a coffee which was most welcome and delicious. The owners were welcoming without being intrusive and communication from booking until the end of our stay was excellent. The surroundings were peaceful and relaxing, which was just what we were looking for. We would not hesitate to recommend Swallows Lodge to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in beautiful surroundings. We will definitely be booking again.

Swallows Lodge is a little gem, everything about it has been done beautifully, kitchen is well equipped, beds are very comfy, it's spotlessly clean and there's plenty of room for 6 people.

Polly and Rod are lovely hosts, very helpful, thank you Polly for showing my grandson the pigs! Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
