We were pleased with our stay from start to finish! The house was warm and cozy on a blustery day, and Kessie was a delightful host, helping us with directions and providing interesting company. Breakfast was wholesome and healthy. We hope to return!
Beautiful country B&B, spacious living room & dining room with lots of sunlight, felt right at home, very sociable owner and friendly dog, who stays out of the way unless you want company. Breakfast very good and healthy as well. Andrew Wyeth scenery.
Kessie is a wonderful hostess, very welcoming and solicitous. We had to leave a day early b/c of the weather and she handled this situation quite generously. The views are spectacular, the setting is bucolic, and the house is open and airy, neat as a pin and spotless. Kessie really made the visit, as she is thoughtful, well read, and well traveled. She clearly loves her home and thoroughly enjoys hosting visitors. Her dog Nutmeg is quite friendly and very well behaved. We had a most relaxing and enjoyable stay!
What a BEAUTIFUL B&B! The house is gorgeous, on sprawling beautiful grounds, and the rooms are beautiful and clean. The innkeeper spent a few hours with us, drinking wine and talking about life and travels, and she made gluten-free breakfast for us in the morning because I needed it. Such a wonderful experience, we will definitely be returning!
We took a weekend trip around thanksgiving time last year and stayed with Kessie. I just started reminiscing about how wonderful a time we had and then was embarrassed that we never wrote a review sharing how great our stay was!
Kessie was a wonderful and personable hostess, her house and the setting were beautiful, and the food was delicious. We so enjoyed our trip last year, and are hoping to make it out again soon!

Kessie is a wonderful hostess. She takes time to get to know her guests without invading your privacy. Her breakfasts are outstanding. Nutmeg, her dog, is so sweet. The ambiance is warm & welcoming. I find it so relaxing, sitting on the porch or patio & enjoying the beautiful view. This visit was my 4th stay & I intend to return.

The place has a feeling of spaciousness. The room was large, bed comfortable. We spent an overcast day indoors in one of the comfortable sitting rooms, looking out over the expansive meadow. Kessie is a perfect host, amiable, charming and discreet. The breakfast was fresh, much of it organic, prepared simply and elegantly. This is a great place for a peaceful getaway.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Thank you so much for this absolutely lovely review. I am glad you enjoyed your visit to Swallow Hill. I always think the place deserves every accolade, but it's somewhat embarrassing to read innkeeper praise too. I do hope you'll come again soon, and that the sun will shine a bit more with lovely sunsets.
We spent a weekend here, and it was exactly what we needed. A gorgeous property with spectacular views all around and comfortable beds and rooms. What was most appealing to us, though, was that my wife and I are vegan, and Kessie made vegan food for us both mornings - she even had soy milk on-hand in case we wanted any in our coffee. The food was delectable. We will definitely return when we are in the area.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] I'm glad you had such a good time. It was fun to have you here and cook some special vegan foods. I have more now on the back burner, so hope you'll come again soon.
We loved everything about Swallow Hill B&B. The innkeeper, Kessie, is a delight--relaxed, great sense of humor, helpful but not intrusive. The inn itself is in a beautiful spot on a hill, overlooking the western sky and, at least when we were there, a beautiful sunset. We had a delicious breakfast of an asparagus omelet with fresh local eggs (one laid that morning!) and peaches put up last year from Kessie's peach trees. The perfect getaway.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Thank you for this super review. I'm glad you had such a good time. I loved having you here, but am afraid to tell you, a bear ate all the peaches from my peach tree this year. I'll have to go buy organic peaches to put up for winter eating. Bah!
Located on a little-traveled country lane, Swallow Hill looks out from the top of a rise to unobstructed views of the Berkshires. You will not find a more gorgeous, peaceful setting.
We bicycled along the quiet roads, then drove towards Northampton for an excellent dinner.
Kessie is an outstanding hostess, taking extra care to ensure we knew where to go and how to get there.
If you desire a comfortable stay in the country not far from a college town, choose Swallow Hill. You will not regret it.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Thank you for the super review. It's getting to be cool biking weather again. I do hope to see you back here at Swallow Hill.
Kessie is an excellent host—friendly, interesting, knowledgeable, accommodating, and a great cook. The house is spacious and homey with lovely views of rolling fields and woods. Although this is a personal preference, the bed was just the way I like it: not too soft or too firm, with lots of fluffy covers. I would stay again in a heartbeat and hope I can return.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Do come again soon...so you can write another lovely review. Thank you so much. I loved having you here.
We decided to get out of NYC for a last minute getaway and chose Swallow Hill B and B for its location in the beautiful Massachusetts country. But we never expected such an amazing experience. We had to arrive late on a friday and Kessie and her dog nutmeg were there to greet us, show us around and pour us a cup of tea before bed. She made us feel at home and welcome for the entire weekend. Kessie thought of everything to make our stay pleasant from tailoring music to our taste, remembering details from previous conversation to providing the perfect setting for every time of the day.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Such a lovely review. Thank you. I know you are working really hard, but do stop and come and visit again. Perhaps we can find a place to Buddy to stay locally?
We loved Swallow Hill, and look forward to returning.
If you are looking for a beautiful, quiet B&B in the Pioneer Valley, do not miss Swallow Hill. The house and grounds are lovely, and the rooms are comfortable and beautifully furnished. The proprietor is warm, friendly, and helpful. Breakfast was truly outstanding, with a new menu made from fresh, local ingredients each day. It was hard to leave! -The Kerrs, San Diego CA
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Dear Kerrs, Thank you so much for this lovely review. It was a fun weekend with many graduation celebrations. Perhaps you will come back to this area sometime. If so I hope you will remember Swallow Hill and come and visit.

My husband and I loved our stay at Swallow Hill...starting with the bedrooms (a queen-sized bed) and living area...elegant, spacious, and comfortable. The proprietor welcomed us--charmed us, really--and provided a sumptuous breakfast the next morning, along with helpful tips for finding our way around the area. The view is spectatular, and yes, swallows abound in the surrounding fields. We're frequent B&B'ers, and Swallow Hill is a true find. We're coming back. Actually, I'd like to return to have morning coffee in the garden terrace and see the humming birds. Apparently, they're nuts about the place, too! -- The Lundquists from Pennsylvania
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Thank you Lundquists for this super review. You seemed to capture the essence of Swallow Hill and I do hope that you will both come back soon.
Staying at Swallow Hill was truly a wonderful experience! Our family felt welcome, and we enjoyed both the many outdoor opportunities nearby and the coziness of the rooms and common areas. The views are fantastic from every room. The breakfast was tasty (including fresh eggs from the farm up the road!) and we hope to return again.
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] Thank you for this lovely review. I loved having your family here to stay and I hope that you will come back and visit any time. Bryant Street eggs are even more plentiful these days!
Swallow Hill is such a lovely place, I didn't want to leave. Breakfasts were delicious, lovely places to sit and read and lots of help with places to eat and visit. I highly recommend it. FN from Edinburgh
[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews] My first B&B review and a great one. Thank you. I'm so glad you had a good time, and that Swallow Hill was on your itinerary. Another year, perhaps you'll return.
