  • We have stayed at The Swan in the past - always extremely enjoyable! Would you be able to confirm that we would have a "room with a view"?, i.e. not overlooking, for example, the fire escape?

    We cannot guarantee a front facing room, we welcome requests and do our best to accommodate them when possible. If you have specific requirements we recommend calling The Swan directly so we can best advise.
