“Fabulous! Booked very last minute (on the day), Sykes and the owner were both extremely accommodating.”

Cottage was so cosy and perfectly located. My little girl loved doing the puzzles after a long day out walking.

“Cosy central”

We started looking at houses in the countryside but thank heavens we decided on this one which is the middle of Bowness - everything within walking distance and a great location to visit other places either by ferry or by car. Honeysuckle Cottage is well equipped and nicely decorated giving a very homely feel, especially when the log burning stove was alight. We went in autumn so the garden didn’t get used but it would have been lovely on a summers evening. Might be a bit of a squash for six but for four it was lovely.

“Excellent location”

This is a cosy cottage perfectly situated for cafes, pubs and restaurants. Short walk down the hill to the lake, would definitely recommend hiring a boat...great fun! Really felt like a home from home.
