We had a wonderfull week in this cottage, fullly equipped, cosy and with a nice garden. Everything is taken care off. Thanks and compliments for the hosts.
Our stay at Honeywell Cottage was fabulous! The cottage itself is very quaint and welcoming and had everything we needed. Our hosts Paul and Sasha were always very responsive and welcoming
Thank you so very much
Fabulous stay as always from hosts Paul and Sasha.

It’s the personal touches that make a difference.
We can’t wait to stay again soon!
Great little hideaway

Honeyway Cottage is a lovely, well-appointed house with great character. A lot of thought has gone in to making your stay comfortable and pleasant. The garden is pretty and quite private. I would definitely recommend.
The house was lovely. It was built in the 1600s and still retains much of the features/charm of that era while still being modern. It suited us perfectly. Thanks
Home away from home/privacy yet close to all conveniences
This cottage had the best of both worlds. The centuries old charm of beamed ceilings and loft style bedroom upstairs.Plus modern features of a roomy bathroom,large bathtub/shower where everything worked, and fully equiped kitchen with everything you'd need. On cool nights it retained the heat, on hot days the thick walls insulated the inside. It's surprisingly secluded, yet in very easy walking distance to the town.
