We had a lovely relaxing stay in the cottage, it was extremely peaceful.
We had a lovely relaxing stay in the cottage, it was extremely peaceful. The cottage is very well appointed and it was immaculately clean. The log burner made it really cosy in the evenings and we appreciated the welcome pack that was provided. The owner was extremely helpful and accommodating in allowing us a slightly earlier check in time. My family agreed that this was the nicest accommodation we had stayed in and we would love to return and stay again.

We had a fabulous stay at Honey Bee Cottage.
We had a fabulous stay at Honey Bee Cottage. It was spotlessly clean, we had a lovely welcome pack with a bottle of wine, bread, fruit, eggs and biscuits. We also had milk, ham, cheese and butter in the fridge which was a lovely touch. Everything in the cottage was top spec, we loved the wood burner. We took our dog along and there were bowls and a bed for her. The garden isn’t secure so she was on a long line for toileting. Neighbours were really friendly. Location was great, easy to get to lots of different places. Would recommend The Blacksmiths pub up the road for food & it’s also dog friendly.
