LOCATION
Swallow Barn lies in a truly rural location on the edge of the unspoilt and hidden valley of the River Tiddy. Whilst deeply rural the village of Menheniot, the towns of Liskeard or Saltash and the A38 are only a short drive away.

The village of Menheniot provides various facilities including church, chapel, excellent village primary school, post office and village store, local inn, sports club and field providing tennis, cricket and football facilities. The main line railway may be accessed at Menheniot Station (approximately 1.5 miles) providing links to Plymouth and Truro and is especially useful for children attending schools further afield and, of course, as a commuter link (Plymouth to London Paddington approximately 3 hours).

The usual market town facilities can be found at Liskeard (4 miles) including a range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities. The town of Saltash (12 miles) has a Waitrose store on its northern outskirts and long frontage to the tidal River Tamar with moorings (subject to availability) and a public slipway. Golf is available at Bindown, near Looe, also with a spectacular waterside course at Portwrinkle and at St Mellion International Resort with its leisure facilities. The wide expanse and beaches of Whitsand Bay are within easy driving distance, providing opportunities for boating, sea fishing and other water sports. The City of Plymouth lies within commuting distance where there is an excellent shopping centre set against the historic waterside areas of The Barbican and Hoe.
