Great location

Ideal for 2 families of 4. Spacious and quiet with lovely views. Dated but adequate. Table cloth on kitchen table dirty and difficult to wipe clean, the rest of the cottages was clean. Very enjoyable stay.

4/10 Poor

A proprty disappointment

On arrival there was a strong musty/damp smell downstairs and the sofa covers were also smelly. The furniture was a mishmash of old, probably seconhand store, table and chairs and the surfaces had a layer of dust. It gave the impression of not having been lived in for some time although the disgarded cigarette butts around the front doorstep and picnic table would suggest otherwise. Microwave and toaster need replacing and the downstairs shower also (dirty and unpleasant). Upstairs was okay albeit basic. Bed linen and towels were clean and of a decent standard which was the good news. The mattress in the double at the top of the stairs needs replacing as it was lumpy and springs could be felt. The comments made are similar to those going back over ten years so the owners have not moved to make improvements but still expect to command a strong rental rate.Departed the property early just to get back to a cleaner environment.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Jul, 2022
Thanks for taking the time to review Honeysuckle. It is a rustic house, under new ownership since just before lockdown and new to Holiday Home Hunter during that time. It is a barn conversion and the furnishings are older style but not that old, the owners taste is more conventional cottage style and its more of a dog friendly, walkers base for getting out to explore the area. It suits some and not others as other reviews indicate. It is much more reasonably priced than neighbouring properties and for a 4 bedroom house it is keenly priced. The cigarette butts are a mystery as the cleaner swept up outside on the Friday before you arrived. I have forwarded the review to the owner and cleaner and I expect they will replace the microwave and toaster. I will suggest a mattress topper for the bedroom you mention. The oven was replaced not long before your stay and the fridge freezer in the year or so. The conservatory is a recent addition from last year.

Perfect for a family stay

Had a lovely stay here with the family. The furniture is a little dated, and the floorboards creak, but none of those things affected our stay. There are plenty of seating options, which meant we could spread out and each have our own space. The conservatory is lovely, and my son spent most of his time in there with the air-conditioning!
