    It was a secluded area 5 miles walk to the village driving was okay but there were roadworks so a little bit of a diversion. Lovely views quiet and peaceful. I don’t

    The roads in are a bit bumpy but we didn't meet any other vehicles and took our time.

    The house was spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed. Beautiful. We loved the views, and the peace and quiet. We hope to visit again!

    Couldn't close the bathroom window. A set of good knives, a teapot and more deep bowls and wooden spoons / utensils would complete the lovely kitchen and make the most of having the dishwasher. We couldn't make the ensuite shower get hot enough - tried reducing the flow - we used the huge rolltop bath at night, which was accidentally romantic!

    Warm and cosy, very spacious, clean and welcoming. No overpowering cleaning smells, just very clean. Great private garden with big table and BBQ. Separate shared laundry room with 2 washers and 2 dryers - brilliant had changeover laundry not occupied it, I'm sure we could have used it if we had asked. The huge spacious entry room was great for shedding wet and mucky outdoor gear (November, yellow weather warnings). All 3 bedrooms looked lovely, a single with a door to garden that's not in the photos, and twin off the lounge. Really comfortable double. Outside: Buzzards by day, owls by night and sooo quiet I could hear my own pulse while watching the stars from the garden table. We'd love to stay again, especially in better weather to enjoy the outside space and meet the animals.

    The house was in a beautiful location and waking up to the sight and sound of sheep was refreshing and the hosts were really sweet and answered all of our questions about farming. Overall it was a great experience and staying at the peaceful and cozy setting was just what we needed!

    We would have like some UHT milk and tea/coffee sachets or something so we could have had a cuppa when we arrived instead of dumping our stuff and heading straight back out to the shop after a 3+ hour journey. It was ok thought there was a Tesco not far away. The road leading to the farm had lots of potholes

    It is such a beautiful cottage. The beds and bedding were so comfortable and my friend and I had a double bed each which was appreciated, we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. There is lots of space and the outdoor area is lovely with chickens and sheep around.

    There was nothing I didn't like

    The property is stunning, everything I expected, and so much more We were met shortly after arrival by Isobel who was very friendly, ensured we knew how to reach her if necessary. Very quiet location. Very dark, which would have been amazing if the sky had been clear, and the stars out.

    The cottage was beautiful as was the surrounding countryside. Plenty to do nearby. The accommodation was lovely and warm despite being chilly outside (February ). The cottage had everything we needed and more. Lots of lovely touches. The photos do not do the cottage justice. Thank you and we will be back.

    The Honey House is beautiful and larger than we expected from the pictures. The location is very quiet and perfect for watching the dark skys. We came with an 8 and 10 yr old and found the house well stocked with books and games that they were reluctant to put down to go outside! Arrival was simple, no fuss and the house was clean and warm. Enjoy your visit!

    What a superb facility far from the 'madding crowd', comfortable, spacious and well equipped.

    The property was generally clean but I had to clean around the rear external of the shower room loo pan and the floor below it. A scheduled gas service call in the morning of the last day meant the boiler had been switched off and there wasn't hot water for showers and washing up. There may have been a mix up between Booking.com and the hostess about what time we were expected to leave.

    Remote location, quietness, great property for up to 5 adults and good for a family, good laundry facility, great entrance for boots and bikes, friendly and responsive hostess, spacious rooms, good kitchen provision, comfortable living area, separate dining area, comfortable beds.
