Lovely Cottage
Honey Cottage was all we needed and more, plenty of space for our party of 5 adults. The Cottage is well equipped, beds are comfortable and lots of books and games to occupy us. The conservatory was a lovely space to sit in. Thanks for a wonderful trip which gave us the opportunity to relax and take a trip down memory lane. We hope to be back in the future.

Quaint dog friendly cottage
A beautiful period cottage which still has bags of charm and character but modern conveniences too. In a peaceful quiet location with a fully enclosed garden for our dog. Had a great holiday in Hele, local pub and beach in walking distance.Although it was just the 2 of us there is of living space for 6 people. Highly recommended 😊

Absolutely perfect stay
Lovely cottage. It was spacious with several reception rooms, very good to spread out with teenagers, we all had our favourite spots, but could come together also. We had a mixture of drizzly and very sunny days, this did not bother us as the cottage was so easy to stay in. Lovely garden, convenience of a large garage to park in and a very short stroll to a lovely little cove beach. The beach was ideal for an early dip and also for lazy days soaking up the sun, with a nice little cafe/takeaway for treats. With didn’t eat at the pub but seemed good when we went for a drink, sat in the beer garden with sea views. Also a handy shop in village and many nearby places to visit. We will be back 100%

Lovely cottage Hele Bay
The property is great and in a good location for Hele Bay and its amenities. The only downside was some of the doors vary in height and with two of us being 6ft it was very easy to forget to duck and bang your head.

Perfect house and location
A truly wonderful stay at this fabulous house. Very well equipped and lovely comfortable sofas and mattresses. We all loved the spaciousness of the property - always able to find a quiet place away from each other when needed. The house was cosy and warm and the conservatory gave us a nice outside feel even when it was throwing it down with rain! The location was absolutely perfect - a 3 minute walk to the beach for sunrise swims, to the pub for a meal, to the shop fir essentials. About 20 minutes to walk into Ilfracombe and also the coastal path very easily accessible ( if very steep!). Having the garage to park our people carrier in was just incredible- it’s difficult to park in narrow roads so this made a huge difference to us. Richard was so helpful and prompt in all his communication with us and had been very thoughtful even leaving fishing nets, body boards etc in the garage for guests to borrow. Overall, a wonderful stay in an extremely comfortable house in the absolute best of locations. Can’t wait to go back!

Excellent cosy yet spacious cottage with parking.
We had a very happy stay at Honey cottage. The accommodation exceeded our expectation from the on line photos. The rooms a are spacious enough for a family or an all adult party to enjoy. We had marvellous weather for October and the surrounding area has the most spectacular beaches all a short distance away. Honey cottage has parking and an attached garage which made life so easy when loading the car, and a large parking space if your party has 2 cars. The cottage was warm and cosy and had all we needed for a great holiday. Thank you Richard .

EXPLORE NORTH DEVON
The cottage is a typical Devon building with some charm and character and some quirky oddities. The kitchen is fully functional with all one could want for a holiday. However, with only two small windows, you do need the lights on all the time you are in the kitchen. The large lounge and the equally large second downstairs reception room would be ideal for families. TV/Xbox in one room and reading/games in the other. The bedrooms are a good size with the master being very spacious. The entrance hall to the property has wooden seats and that allows ample room for changing from outdoor footwear into slipper for indoors – great for those wet and muddy days. Hele Bay is quite near and walkable from the cottage. Ilfracombe is also walkable for moderately fit people but the hills may prove a challenge for those who are not quite so fit – but you are on holiday in North Devon where it is always going to be hilly so just take your time. This cottage is certainly one that ticks boxes and is recommended as a great place to explore North Devon, take in the coastline, and visit the many harbours and fishing villages.

Honey Cottage, a short walk from Hele Bay
Very well presented holiday home, comfy master bed. 5-10 min walk to Hele Bay beach, the local Premier supplies store and Hele Bay Pub. A short drive away from many beautiful sandy surf beaches - just what we were looking for with young adult kids in tow. Responsive owners to any queries. Highly recommend.
