We had a lovely holiday at Honey Cottage.
We had a lovely holiday at Honey Cottage. It was very clean and homely. A lovely place to go back to after long walks, lite the fire and relaxed. Knaresborough is well worth a visit, about a 45 minute drive from the cottage. Inglestone waterfall trail is a must. Both pubs in the village were good for food. Bollywood Indian very good too. Thank you to Gary and Nini for a very warm welcome and all the goodies you provided for us.

Honey Cottage is beautiful! We’ve had a fantastic week.
Honey Cottage is beautiful! We’ve had a fantastic week. The cottage is immaculate and has everything you need. Nini and Gary have put so much thought and care into making your stay perfect. The beds are so comfortable, the room diffusers everywhere are gorgeous, pillow sprays, treats for the dog and not forgetting the homemade chocolate honey cake and wine!We loved sitting in the pretty garden which has beautiful flowers and is so peaceful. Honey Cottage is in the perfect location. We managed to visit everywhere we wanted. Just wish we could have stayed for longer. Missing it already!
