“Lovely and warm, very clean and I slept like a log on comfy mattress.”

Thankyou for the treats and for the good weather. I missed having the pretty Poole teapot which I always used but Poole is now collectible so perhaps wisely rescued for it’s safety. Maybe a replacement for leaf tea fans? Can recommend little coffee shop in Modbury car park, The Ship in at Noss Mayo and a quick trip to the Nkuku place near Totnes if you like interiors. Smart sofas but low. I needed to pile up cushions on seat and back to be almost comfortable in the evening. Good tv and ...

Thankyou for the treats and for the good weather. I missed having the pretty Poole teapot which I always used but Poole is now collectible so perhaps wisely rescued for it’s safety. Maybe a replacement for leaf tea fans? Can recommend little coffee shop in Modbury car park, The Ship in at Noss Mayo and a quick trip to the Nkuku place near Totnes if you like interiors. Smart sofas but low. I needed to pile up cushions on seat and back to be almost comfortable in the evening. Good tv and WiFi though. Some problems which included a very warped front door which was hard to open and close as well as being very noisy. Fortunately no one in other cottages! There was something wrong with the bathroom light which took a while to respond to pull cord, flashed too strongly when turned on and was super bright - perhaps an electrical fault or bulb too high wattage? I didn’t use it at all, especially as in a bathroom with no extractor. Just left door open. Bathroom radiator only ever hot at the bottom suggesting it needed bleeding but could not find key. This is not a new problem so not sure why it has not been replaced if it cannot be bled. All issues reported to C and C in Salcombe as well as note left for housekeeping. Otherwise I had a good week and was lucky with the weather. Thanks to C and C in Salcombe for loan of key when I locked myself out!

“Perfect cottage and perfect location.”

We had a good delivery from Sainsbury’s and so didn’t use the car all week. There are numerous amazing walks from there with our collie. The cottage was spacious, well equipped and warm and comfortable. Will definitely return.

“What an amaxing find.”

The cottage is really nice and clean. Yes its very quite and peaceful. The beach is only 2 miles away. We could of stayed there for ever, if we could.

- Peter, July 2024
Gaynor June 2024

“Lovely cottage in a complex.”

No problems with the property. Unfortunately a bit isolated down very narrow lanes with nothing in the village. Fine if you are just a walker, hiker or want only a beach holiday in the short trip to B-on-Sea, even that is slightly restricted as no beach at high tide, but otherwise it is a car journey to anywhere of interest, to shop or find a pub/restaurant. Should have done more research of the exact location before booking

- Gaynor, June 2024
Peter May 2024

“We were delighted with the cottage, well equipped and maintained with a beautiful view.”

Our dog loved the woody grass area available for her, ideal for a ball game. In early May, Bigbury Court was very quiet. We loved the beach and the sea tractor, 2 miles away but you do need to be aware of tide times. Information provided in the cottage.

“Goodies on arrival very welcome so thank you.”

However cottage quite cold as heating may not have been on for a while? Took about three days to warm through. I would have appreciated the handbook for new CH controls as new digital box on landing could be confusing. Nice and clean and well equipped kitchen. However I have been here before and there has always been a contact number for the couple who look after the property but not this year. Consequently only helpline was Coast and Country whose number did not work when I tried during work hours. Not reassuring so needs to be acted on. Very disappointed that the ceiling over the lounge window leaked yet again when rain heavy, exactly as same time last year although not so bad. Owner was informed by C and C and their response was that it had happened before and needed major work to correct. Exactly what I was told last year but clearly this had not been done. (Once again the owners were out of the country). This is unfair on guests, some of whom who return in good faith that the property has been repaired and will be properly maintained. I would advise any new potential guests in winter to check with C and C that the roof work needed has been carried out. I would like to return if this is attended to. Thank you.

Janet January 2024

“Honeysuckle Cottage felt just like home, very well equipped throughout, great sea views and sad to leave.”

Well appointed for visits to Plymouth, Dartmoor, Dartmouth, Kingsbridge etc. The cake and tea on arrival much appreciated. No rain all week just plenty of sunshine and blue skies despite being cold to be expected in January.

- Janet, January 2024
Dominic December 2023

“We had a lovely stay over Christmas- the festive decorations and mince pies were a lovely surprise on arrival.”

The house was very clean and had everything we needed including amenities. It was a very peaceful and quiet stay and we enjoyed exploring the local area and quick access to the beaches.

- Dominic, December 2023
Sharon November 2023

“We loved this cottage!”

Looked tiny from outside but inside spacious and comfy. The kitchen was one of the best equipped we have found, as we have learned over the years to always take a sharp knife which this time stayed in its bag. The view of the sea from the bedroom was gorgeous, as was the big comfy bed. A tiny thing - maybe a little gate so that you can let dogs out in the garden for a late night pee? However 2 garden chairs across the gap did the job. No longer a pub in the village which is a shame but thank you to Ash at the Pickwick which became our local - we made use of the roaring fire every day! Please be aware if you stay out of season - there are no paths or street lighting, take care if walking in the village - but loads of public footpaths around for dog walking. Lastly - best food of the week at the Oyster Shack and beautiful ancient Journeys End pub at Ringmore - again take care walking down from the car park in the dark! Thank you again for a great stay x

“Cottage needs a serious deep clean and an upgrade of furniture and fittings.”

- John, October 2023
Julie October 2023

“Well equipped cosy and comfortable.”

Good location , great to have the ‘paddock’ area for the dog . Cleanliness could have been a bit better , lamps and skirtings very dusty , but that’s me being fussy ! Felt like it hadn’t actually had a good spring clean in a while.Overall s lovely cottage and would recommend.

- Julie, October 2023
Linda September 2023

“I must admit the stay wasn't very enjoyable.”

The beds in the second bedroom were only children size & we booked for 2 adults. Separate rooms as I have insomnia! There was cobwebs in the lamp shades which i caught in my hand. We only stayed for one night as the car was playing up & weather was bad.

- Linda, September 2023
Rachel September 2023

“An amazing property in a wonderful location.”

Cottage is cosy, very well equipped and a home from home. I will definitely be back.

- Rachel, September 2023
Nicola July 2023

“A lovely, spacious holiday cottage in a quiet area.”

Fully equipped kitchen (including a potato masher now!) and spacious lounge/diner - two new sofas were very comfortable. Upstairs the two bedrooms were also spacious and the beds were comfy (although the twin single bed mattresses were a bit 'springy' and noisy). Nice duvets and pillows. Bathroom was good with very good shower in the bath. Towels provided and plenty of cleaning products available. Good location near to Burgh Island beach. We visited Plymouth, Paignton, Dartmouth and Dartmoor. All easily accessible - just be aware of some narrow country lanes. Really would recommend this holiday cottage if you want somewhere peaceful. Good WiFi and variable 4G.

- Nicola, July 2023
Michelle July 2023

“Honeysuckle Cottage was perfect for our stay with our dog, fabulous walks on the doorstep and close to some gorgeous beaches.”

The cottage was lovely, views over the countryside and sea in the distance. The cottage was well thought out with everything you would need. Would live to stay there again.

- Michelle, July 2023

Smith January 2023

“Firstly I would happily recommend this cottage.”

My grading relates to the practices of the holiday companies. Enjoyed the new sofas, lamp and security light. Lovely and clean as always and my favourite biscuits! Slept well as so quiet. Look forward to coming back again. However holiday was affected by bad leak in lounge onto window sill. Arrived to problem which had been noted by turn-round team who reported it to Coast and Country as well as Sykes. I was regularly needing to empty pans and replace / dry out towels. Ceiling badly stained and starting to sag slightly at the wall as problem worsened. Leaves removed from gutter at the end of the week but this had no effect. What surprised and disappointed me was that I had no contact whatsoever from C and C or Sykes all week. No apology. No asking if I minded having to deal with the issue as I did not actually sign up for this as part of a holiday. Nothing. Hopefully the next Sykes guests will be treated with more consideration and courtesy.

- Smith, January 2023
Claire December 2022

“Everything you could imagine was available - and a nice slice of cake with a cup of tea was most welcome on our arrival.”

Our dog settled really well and to be a stones throw from the sea was ideal. We were spoilt weather wise on New years Day and the cottage didn't take long to warm us through on the wet and windy days. Thank you for our stay!

- Claire, December 2022
Janet December 2022

“The cottage was spotlessly clean and surprisingly spacious.”

The beds and settees were very comfortable, and the cottage was well equipped. Would we stay again? That's a resounding Yes from the four of us.

- Janet, December 2022
Martin December 2022

“Couldn't fault the property, quality fittings and fixtures.”

Had a lovely time

Susan October 2022

“We had a very enjoyable week in Honeysuckle cottage, cosy and comfortable, we would definitely stay again and would be happy to recommend to friends.”

- Susan, October 2022
Kenneth September 2022

“We found that coming back in the evening after a meal out, that the whole area outside the cottage is pitch black at this time of year!”

! An outside light would be a great advantage!! The settee in the property is broken, therefore very uncomfortable to sit on. We believe that other visitors have mentioned this! That left one chair with a footstool, but the remaining chair was coming apart too.

- Kenneth, September 2022
Malcolm September 2022

“Excellent location, great place to stay.”

Like home from home. On our return home I was a bit surprised to fine a message on our answer phone asking if we had settled in ok !!!!

- Malcolm, September 2022
Michelle June 2022

“We really enjoyed our stay.”

It was like home from home. Everything that you need was found. Would certainly recommend this property to anybody

- Michelle, June 2022
Brian June 2022

“Our first impression was that the cottage was modern and clean but on further inspection it turned out to be not so clean and rather messy with lots of unnecessary clutter.”

There was no decent mirror (we had to go to a family funeral and would have liked to be able to check our appearance) and an almost total lack of clothes hangers. We felt it was in need of some TLC from the owner. The one redeeming feature was the presence of a steamer which made up for a lot as it is a most uncommon find! If thinking of upgrading an induction hob would speed up cooking and be much appreciated.

- Brian, June 2022
Leslie May 2022

“Bread knife kept coming out of handle”

- Leslie, May 2022
Carole May 2022

“Had a brilliant stay thanks.”

Cottage was as described and had everything required. Situated in a beautiful spot with the sea in view. A shame the local pub is closed. A very small complaint that certainly didn’t spoil our holiday, a new settee might be in order. On the whole, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

- Carole, May 2022
Robert May 2022

“Only one slight complaint, the settee needs new springs very soft, so no support”

- Robert, May 2022
Peter April 2022

“We were very happy with Honeysuckle cottage,and will book this again.”

The parking and access ,enviroment etc were good,as was the cottage itself.A very quiet and beautiful area

- Peter, April 2022
Bridget April 2022

“We had a real enjoyable stay in this beautiful part of the country.”

The accommodation had everything we required. Very good for dogs, it even had a small field very close for short walks at night and early in the morning. The roads in the area are very narrow so we had to drive to he beaches. I would definitely recommend Honeysuckle cottage.

- Bridget, April 2022
Susan February 2022

“There was dog hairs on the sofa.”

Pots dirty in the cupboard and was dusty.

J A December 2021

- J A, December 2021
Liam October 2021

“We had a great time at Honeysuckle Cottage.”

It was clean, warm and comfortable and there was plenty of space and it appears to have been recently decorated. The other reviews don’t do justice to the views from the living room and back bedroom which look out over the sea - the sun sets were amazing. The place was conveniently located to get to Bigbury on Sea and other locations and although there were a lot of narrow roads in the area, there are plenty of passing places and some of the most courteous driving I’ve ever encountered so that was not a problem for us. The only thing we’d have asked for is some more crockery (too few cups and one or two chipped bowls) but this is a minor gripe. We’d be very happy to stay there again.

- Liam, October 2021
Colin October 2021

“The weather at the start of the holiday was very poor, but the cottage was so comfortable and a great place to chill out.”

As the weather improved the cottage proved to be a great place to tour Devon from once you learnt how to manage single track lanes, We would fully recommend Honeysuckle Cottage, the only down side was no visitors book to express our thanks. Sue & Colin Howard

- Colin, October 2021
Pat August 2021

“Honeysuckle Cottage is in a lovely quiet location, even on a Bank Holiday weekend.”

It is part of a complex, which is not obvious from the photos, but this is not a bad thing. There is good car parking with easy access to the house. Numerous public footpaths are available from the cottage in various directions with some stunning views. The cottage is spacious and well equipped, with ample storage. Some of the carpets and furnishings are a little tired, but overall we were very satisfied.

- Pat, August 2021
Jonathan May 2021

“The bed creaked.”

Apart from that it is a very comfortable, well-appointed cottage in a lovely quiet spot

- Jonathan, May 2021
Margaret May 2021

“Beautiful cottage with 2 parking spaces in quiet courtyard location well equipped lots of space and very comfortable.”

With a view of the Sea be it distant. Lots of footpaths but some destinations like the Pickwick Inn & store in St Anns Chapel and the Beach at Bigbury on Sea required walking on narrow lanes which maybe in July & August would be much busier. Saying that the pub was lovely. Sunday lunch recommended. We chose takeaways. Dont recommend the Fish & Chips in Challaborough. Suggest booking other local restaurants pre visit as we could not get reservations in May. Oyster Shack & Journeys End were recommended. Would definately go back.

- Margaret, May 2021
Janet April 2021

“Honeysuckle Cottage is set in tranquil setting.”

High standard of cleanliness and everything supplied, didn’t need for anything, and much appreciated the finishing touch of tea, milk and cakes left for us. 2 bedrooms with plenty of space; lounge seating comfortable and a good choice on the TV. My daughter and I had a lovely relaxing break and would highly recommend Honeysuckle Cottage. We even managed afternoon tea in the sunshine in the front garden on arrival and breakfast the following morning listening to the lovely bird songs.

- Janet, April 2021
Hilary December 2020

“Thank you so much for your kind understanding when my husband was hospitalised during our stay!”

Angela October 2020

“One of the neighbours are not very social.”

Not very private as it’s an actual terraced building but it is in a nice quiet secluded area. Good amenities for cooking and very spacious rooms. I would stay here again.

- Angela, October 2020
Suzanne September 2020

“As always a beautiful home for the week, obviously slightly different with Covid precautions.”

House was fab location for all of Devon and Cornwall with Lands End around 1hr 15 minutes drive time. Managed to visit, Lands End, Lizard point and Eden project in Cornwall (different days). Travelled around Devon on the remaining days. Stunning. Was great to come back to a great house with pub and shop15 mins walk up the road. Definitely recommend this property.

- Suzanne, September 2020
Michael September 2020

“The cottage is as described and has most things you need.”

Hard to tell if it had a deep covid clean, would only say it was to a normal standard. No bags provided to put used bedding etc in although you are asked to use them . Take dishwasher tablets and washing detergent if you want to use either appliance. Also take hand wash/ wipes etc in this current climate. On the plus side, had plenty of hot water, bed was comfy and was reasonably well stocked in the kitchen.

- Michael, September 2020
Smith February 2020

“Despite the windy and muddy weather, Rosie the dog and I had a lovely week and having honeysuckle cottage to come back to was a real pleasure.”

Slept like a log, lovely warm cottage and a decent TV which is a rarity in a holiday rental. Will happily come back for another holiday next year, possibly before that to catch some better weather! Thanks to the owners and Coast and Country,

- Smith, February 2020
Iain September 2019

“Honeysuckle Cottage is a comfortable, well equipped cottage in a great location.”

A couple of details let the cottage down - no light bulbs in some lamps for example - we found spare bulbs in a cupboard but the cleaner should have done that for us. There were a couple of issues that need looking at - for example the lounge curtain rail was coming away from the wall - but these were relatively minor thinks and probably on the winter to do list. Our dog loved the grass area and because it was quiet had the run of the place - in high season with more people in residence the lack of a gate on the garden area could have been a pain - however if looking for an out of season, reasonably priced, comfortable and conveniently situated cottage - Honeysuckle Cottage is a good choice and I’d certainly visit again.

- Iain, September 2019
C July 2019

“DVD player not working - not connected to television as no scart port at back of television to connect it.”

Also food had been left in freezer which we disposed of. Everything else was fine.

Smith January 2019

“A comfortable week despite weather!”

I personally find the sofa a bit low and squishy but was able to sort it with pillows and cushions so not a problem as no one in spare room needing the pillows! I think mattress has been replaced since last January so much appreciated. Also appreciated the welcome cake and tea, such a nice touch and made me feel welcome. Ideally I would have liked the manuals for main equipment as boiler setting could have been set to come on earlier than 07.00 as I was getting up to a cold cottage. The basic instructions were not quite sufficient for this, particularly if you got something wrong and needed to cancel it and start again! Overall a comfortable week and a big thank you to the owners.

“The arrival instructions were excellent.”

The cottage was clean and ready for our arrival, everything was just as pictured. I was delighted to find the cooker, fridge and dishwasher were the same as I have previously used. The kitchen had everything needed to make our stay truly a home from home experience.(I rarely eat out, preferring to cook at home) The bed was massive, and comfy. Plenty of hot water, superb shower. The location of the cottage was perfect for us to explore the surrounding area. The bonus was not only the glorious weather, but the silence, we slept like babies!

- Mrs Sue Wilsher, Oct 2017
