Guests say
Honey Cottage is a charming and cozy property with a delightful garden, situated in a quiet and scenic area ideal for walking and pet-friendly beaches. Guests appreciate the comfortable and clean bedding, as well as the well-equipped kitchen. The local pub and live music are also highlights.
The cottage received mixed feedback on cleanliness. While bedding was noted as clean and fresh, some guests reported issues with unwashed oven trays and cobwebs, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for its quietness, scenic walks, and proximity to dog-friendly beaches and amenities. The local pub with live music is a bonus.
Guests found the cottage comfortable overall, with a secure garden for dogs and a cozy atmosphere. However, concerns about steep stairs may affect comfort for some visitors.
Facilities are adequate, with a well-stocked kitchen, but several guests experienced issues with the shower and suggested upgrades to ovenware and pots/pans. Maintenance appears to be a concern.
There is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches provided by the host, so it is not possible to assess this category.

Honey Cottage is close to amenities and matches the photos.However the shower was as tricky as the owner and reviewers have said and the stairs are dangerous. I only discovered the stairs warning after booking.

Lovely little cottage quite quirky with its spiral staircase wouldn’t (recommend it for small children) Bedding clean and freshHad trouble with hot water in the shower even tho I read the instructions.Found the trays in the oven still unwashed The kitchen had everything you could want or need, but bring your own dishwasher tablets laundry detergents and tea coffee sugar milkApart from my little gripes the enclosed garden was perfect for my dog. The local area is quiet and scenic for walking I went to two beaches Sizewell and Thorpeness both nice and dogs allowed about 10 minute drive supermarket equal distance.Enjoyed my stay and would stay again if the shower was working properly. Thankyou
