2 night stay
Comfortable, clean, cosy, with character, comfy bed. Pretty. Pleasant small garden seemed secure, which will be lovely later in year. Needs a hob. Would have liked to have cooked one meal.

quirky little annex
Very well presented, best fixtures and fittings, bed linen soft and wonderful. owner very obliging, no where to place your own belongings as owner had filled every surface, TV in bedroom but no chair in bedroom to sit on so you had to lay in bed, settee in main room uncomfortable as sinks low at the back but high at the front, light on all night shining in bedroom window from the outside garage, shone all around the gaps of the blind as it never met the wall snuggly, no coffee table to put your drink on, two very uncomfortable dining chairs as had no backs and leaned backwards

Beekeepers Cottage; a great base for a getaway.
Beekeepers Cottage is the perfect place for a short break. It was an ideal base for my art course and provided a relaxing space for my husband.
It is spotlessly clean and stylish, with welcoming homely touches.
Jennifer and Dave are wonderful and attentive hosts.
We highly recommend this property.
