“The only difficult we had was with parking.”

For some reason I thought there was an allocated space but I must have misread as there is not. There is a permit to park on certain streets if you can find a space. This was not too big of a problem in the end.

For some reason I thought there was an allocated space but I must have misread as there is not. There is a permit to park on certain streets if you can find a space. This was not too big of a problem in the end. The house itself is lovely and was perfect for our needs. We had a great holiday with the children and explored lots of fun activities in the lakes.

“Good service from Sykes.”

Cottage is fabulous. Home from home having everything you need during your stay. Close to all amenities in Bowness. I would definitely recommend.

- Ms Newcombe, June 2019
“We enjoyed our stay at Honeysuckle Cottage.”

It was cosy and in a great location. Whilst the property wasn’t dirty I felt it could have been cleaner. The bedroom floor needed hoovering and we had to wash some items of crockery before they could be used. The walls of the property must be very thin as we could hear every word of our neighbour’s conversations!

- Ms Britten, April 2019

We would like to thank you very much for taking the time to leave your feedback and are really pleased you enjoyed your stay! Please be assured that the above issues have been flagged up with our housekeeper and will be rectified for future bookings. Owner relations
“We had a really lovely time in a beautiful part of the country.”

The cottage was very welcoming and cosy. The lights were even on when we arrived and it was toasty warm too. A real home from home.

- Mrs Lunn, October 2018
“The cottage was lovely, felt homely rather than just a holiday let.”

The location was perfect and we would definitely book again.

- Mrs Dodd, October 2018
“We found the town of Bowness to be charming.”

Honeysuckle Cottage was beautifully appointed and comfortable. It exceeded our expectations for charm and convenience. Edward & Anne Miller. Columbus, Ohio, USA.

“Lovely cottage in the heart of Bowness close to all shops,restaurants and the Lake.”

Clean,tidy and comfortable.

- Mr Goddard, September 2018
“Excellent cottage.”

However, it was extremely difficult to find out the cottage in the evening. Mentioned postcode took us to a different place and direction was not clear. We could identify the the cottage after 2.5 hrs and was about to shift to a hotel. The cottage itself was very nice.

- Mr Roychowdhury, May 2018
“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.
