Quoting our hen: "our weekend at Stswithins cottage was AMAZEBALLS"!!! We agree with everything that previous reviewers have written. Dean went out of his way to help with the planning stages of organising a hen weekend for 18, his help and advice was much appreciated. Over the weekend Dean made sure we had everything we would need and we all... More

I am so glad that you really felt like it was your house as that is my general aim and you certainly left it "spick-and-span" for which I am extremely grateful. It is very unusual these days to get a suggestion but the large teapot is a great idea other than when i put large teapot into e-bay's search window... More

Organising a hen weekend for 10 was a daunting prospect but from the very first email, Dean made the whole thing easier. The house (cottage doesn't do it justice!) is beautiful and homely, and accommodated us all perfectly. His attention to detail is superb with face wipes in every bathroom, hairdryers, Champagne even cereal and fruit juice!! We were all... More

We spent a very enjoyable weekend in St Swithins cottage with a group of 20 hens. Dean's lovely house accommodated our large party and we immediately felt at home. As there were so many of us, there was definitely a bit of a sleepover feel with extra mattresses being added to the rooms, but everyone had an impeccably made up... More

What a lovely comprehensive review - many many thanks for taking the time and effort to write that. I am sure it will be of great benefit to many other Hens over time to come. The walk to the vineyard is one of my favourites to and as for those wee Falabella horses...well they are simply enchanting. No wonder they... More

An ideal place to have a hen party. We had a great weekend full of fun and laughter. St Swithens was perfect for the activities/ dinner we had planned and a huge advantage is that it's so easy to get to by train or car. The actual house is stunning, with superb attention to detail from cleansing wipes to a... More

How amazing to be booked by ladies living all over the country and yet the organiser's mum & dad live in the same village and tried to book my house for a totally different reason a couple of years back. Incredible. Anyway you ladies certainly put the 'S' fairly and squarely in front of my target market i.e. Sophisticated Hen... More

We stayed in the Pink Tents for two NIghts in July and it was amazing! It was so nice to do something different. The tents were really girly and comfortable. During the weekend we had a BBQ, Take Away and lovely dinner in the local pub. We played games, toasted Marshmallows and sat around the camp fire in the evening.... More

What a fab weekend!! When you're asked to organise a hen do for one of your best friends who likes things a little different than the average gal, you have to get creative! And we totally landed on our feet with this place. On arrival, we were greeted by the lovely, if eccentric Dean, the host with the most. He... More

Mr. Eccentric here - I love it! A few years ago my two sons asked me "Dad do you think you are eccentric?" to which I just laughed so very happy to be different to all others. Anyway I am so happy you all enjoyed yourselves and I must say you were my most glamourous Absolutely Fabulous Glampers. I remember... More

From the minute we got there Dean made us feel at home! We stayed in 3 of the hen Coops and had the best time. We were very lucky with the weather, so managed to make full use of the whole glamping experience!! We had a barbeque one evening, were able to use the barn for hen activites and were... More

St Swithins, where do I start! I was looking for somewhere to stay for the night that had character ( I try very hard to stay away from generic hotels!) and St Swithins sounded like my kind of place so I booked for the night I needed to be away. When I arrived at the house I was met by... More
