This was my second very enjoyable visit to Honeysuckle cottage. It is a small but very comfortable place to stay. It is also an excellent spot to explore parts of the West Coast and the many visitor places in the area. I will definitely try and go back when I can. Fran and Paul are welcoming hosts concerned about visitors comfort.
