Beautiful rural location and excellent base from which to explore Bath/Bristol and the surrounding area. Cottage is situated in a quiet location making our stay very peaceful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. Although it only sleeps two it was surprisingly spacious. The weather was excellent so we timed it right! The cottage is in a quiet area but handy for Bath and local places of interest. There are lovely walks from the cottage in the surrounding countryside too. There are a few pubs nearby, we visited the pub in Upton Cheney which does nice food. There is a pub in Bitton and one further up the road towards Bath (Swan Inn). We visited Bath, Wells, Glastonbury and Cheddar Gorge. We found that everything was within an hours’ drive and found it to be an excellent base to visit Somerset. We would stay here again as there are lots of places we didn’t managed to get too.

The cottage was outstanding.
The cottage was outstanding. Spotlessly clean, comfortable and fully equipped. The bed was very comfortable. Wonderfully peaceful location with a true nature lovers garden, squirrels, bunnies, a woodpecker and a hawk. It was central to all the places we wanted to visit.
Great place to stay :)

Honeymead Cottage is in an incredibly quiet, rural location considering how close it is to both Bath and Bristol. We were looking for a quiet cottage for a short break and were very lucky to have found that Honeymead Cottage was available.
