Beautiful cottage, we wanted a winter getaway with log fire, hot tub and a village pub within a mile. This place delivered everything we asked for and more. The underfloor heating was a lovely bonus the enormous bath, wet room, sizeable TV in all rooms comfy sofa were all amazing and I don't think the photos quite do the place justice.

The best Christmas in the most idyllic cottage. The most welcoming, warm home to come into on a windy cold December evening. All the little touches made it feel extra special.

Absolutely beautiful cottage with everything you need for a break and more! Comfortable bed, perfect en-suite bathroom/wet room. Choice of cosy seating areas downstairs and a kitchen that is a home from home! The garden and hot tub are an additional treat. There is a nice community wood close by for a short dog walk, a friendly pub and community sh op around the corner and dog friendly beaches about 30-45 minutes drive away. Im sure there are more walks to be found locally. Would defo return!

The village a good location base for visiting places such as woolacombe bay and the lovely dog friendly beach of Instow where we visited and eat at Glorious oysters! Shack on the beach, and many more pla ces ... we loved our stay and would love to go back. Paul Chris and our staffy Buster ....The Bell pub at Chipplehampton 15mins drive good food..
Emma
Would highly recommend. Jon was really welcoming and the perfect host. The Property is so well presented, with so much attention to detail shown and was spotlessly clean. From the moment we felt immediately relaxed. With all the little touches, the garden and hot tub it felt like we were staying in our own spa hotel. The property is well equipped a nd really comfortable. The bed is out this world. The hot tub was lovely and so clean and well maintained. I'd re-book again with no hesitation.
Jean
Beautiful cottage everything provided . Good location to get to different beaches and big supermarkets 20 mins away. Garden is a lovely sun spot . Everything was very clean . Definitely would go back . Comfy bed great shower and hot tub .
Luke
The cottage was immaculate when we arrived, the bed was very comfy and the size was huge! Jon came to greet us with a lemon drizzle cake which meant a lot to us. The hot tub was lush at night and was checked daily so we knew it was nice and clean. All the facilities and equipment was clean and worked perfectly. Overall s lovely little cottage which we would definitely stay in again!!
Gavin
This was a great place if youre looking for a retreat with the dog. The owner was relaxed with us no rules around the dog and the lemon drizzle cake was a lovely touch too
Jane
This place is INCREDIBLE. The attention to detail, the hot tub, the location, the local village shop and of course John were all amazing! It's incredible comfortable, fire very easy to use, hot tub mega simple and John greeted us with a lemon loaf cake when we arrived! It's brilliantly located to explore Devon and there are walks right on your door step. It's about 40minutes to Saunton Sands and Westward Ho! And if you fancy a drive to Croyde, visit The Thatch pub - best fish and chips EVER!
Alison
Second time staying at this cottage and again it was perfect. The log burner had been lit when we arrived and it was just so cosy, warm and inviting. Jon, the owner, popped in to make sure everything was OK and he was very welcoming. It was lovely to go back to the cottage after a day out and sit in the hot tub before settling down in the living ro om to play games. We loved having breakfast in the sun room before setting off for the day. There are lots of nice places to visit in the area.
craig
first time we have been to this cottage but we will definitely return, met john on arrival and from the minute we walked through the sliding doors into the sun room it was amazing! the cottage was warm and cosy, the lemon cake was define, we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, every bit of detail is really thought of and we had such an amaz ing time here, and we cant wait to return
Gareth
This little slice of heaven is perfect for people who want to escape the everyday life and recharge their batteries. It's location is tucked away in a little village, but has everything you need to enjoy some reflection, reconnecting with a loved one or simply taking rest in the hot tub, oval bath, rainfall shower, lean to extension or by the firep lace. It's not without tech either, with a super large tv in both living room and bedroom, but also a mirror tv over the bath! We love this place!xxx
Nigel
Lovely cottage in a great location with everything you could possibly need. I would highly recommend this property to anyone.
Ruth
The cottage was superb, the amenities were exceptional quality and lovely finishing touches including the fresh flowers and delicious lemon drizzle cake. Remote location in a peaceful little village with pub and community shop. Good location for visiting coastal towns and villages in North Devon.
Frances
A very nice and quiet place. 5 star comfort and everything so nice. We met the owner Jon and was made to feel at home. Lovely to stay where our dog was welcomed and he even got treats to.
Kimberley
A really stunning cottage set in a cosy village. Location is not the best if you dont want to drive far, but it is fairly central so you can visit the north or south coast in a relatively short time. You are allowed to take dogs, but be aware that the stairs and garden have some hazards for four legged friends! The host family are very friendly and we were left milk and cake on arrival which was lovely. We will be recommending to friends and hope to visit again.
Jeremy
Excellent cottage, with everything you could want, very good facilities, nice homely touches, would recommend to anyone
Eleanor
Cottage is gorgeous, everything has been thought of for a lovely relaxed stay. It is quite isolated from lots of things to do, but the village is lovely, and everything is an easy drive away. Bed was super comfy. Hottub was great to relax in at the end of the day. 100% would recommend.
Graeme
Beautiful dog-friendly cottage in heart of North Devon, owner Jon was very friendly and welcoming. Prime location with Barnstaple and numerous beaches are an easy 25-30 minute drive away.
Darryl
Jon (the owner), made us so welcome right from our arrival. Not only that, he went far above and beyond on more than one occasion for us, which he didnt have to, do but clearly took pride and pleasure in doing so and ensuring we were happy. The cottage is beautiful and you honestly cant fault a thing, it has everything from comfort right through to amenities on a high level. We will be back as soon as we can and cant wait.
Rebecca
The cottage is lovely with everything you could need for your stay. It's super clean and beautifully designed in a good location. John was very helpful and communicative. The little touches of the flowers, cake and dog treats were very welcome. It's also nice to stay somewhere that allows dogs that doesn't then have a Bible of rules to follow that makes you feel on edge! Would definitely recommend and will be back when we can. Thanks for s lovely week.
Nicola
Everything was perfect, tastefully furnished and spotlessly clean, with a pretty enclosed garden for the dog. Great to have the hot tub and soft robes to put on afterwards. Flowers, cake, beverages and milk left for us, by the thoughtful owners. Also plenty of wood, etc, if you want to use the wood burner. We wouldnt hesitate to recommended Honeysu ckle Cottage, its an absolute gem and we loved our stay!
Laura
Beautiful cottage. Been renovated to a very high standard. Everything you need. Great communication from owner. Sun room and hot tub was just a added bonus for a relaxing holiday. Would highly recommended.
Hannah
An absolutely amazing cottage, when we arrived the music was playing there were fresh flowers and lemon drizzle cake baked for us. It was so clean and tidy we really couldnt fault anything. The hot tub was lovely as well as the wood burner and underfloor heating. The owner was really helpful and welcoming we would definitely stay again! So sad we h ad to come home again
Rebecca
An idyllic cottage with every comfort you could ask for. A hot tub under the starts then wrap up in a fluffy dressing gown, log fire on while watching a film, fully equipped kitchen with a few condiments & the sunroom to sit and read a book. Very relaxing and had a warm welcome from Jon. Highly recommend.
Richard
Honeysuckle Cottage is just a perfect cottage for a couple to relax and enjoy the surroundings at any time of the year, but, in winter, with a roaring log fire and underfloor heating to keep you warm. The owner takes special care to welcome guests and all his additional touches, just add to making you feel at home.
David
The cottage was a great little get away. It was nice to just hibernate for a few days. The hot tub was awesome to jump in every night. We had our labrador 'Mr Magoo' with us and he had a great time exploring the local area. Would love to come back in the summer to see more of the North Devon coast line.
Ryan
Really great place to stay, nice and quiet to get away from it all. Jon was a great host
Matt
The cottage is everything it says, great location for touring around. The cottage itself is very clean and all little touches are nice, Lemon Drizzle cake on arrival, all utensils needed are in the kitchen area. The hot tub is great after a day out walking, our dog enjoyed the complimentary dentastix ( as we forgot ours!). Jon, the owner is very he lpful. Everything is very comfortable and makes this cottage a perfect place for couple to have a relaxing break.
Lorren
