“Interior a little dated and tired.”

No hot water only lukewarm. Sink In bathroom slow to empty and strong smell of sewerage outside some days. Chairs in living room not very comfortable. Bed however was very comfortable and towels were lovely.

- Wendy, August 2024

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry if you felt the cottage was a little tired inside. We have just had new flooring throughout and we do try to keep things up to standard. The sink in the bathroom has been plunged and is now draining freely. We are looking into the hot water as the thermostat was changed earlier this year! The sewage smell may in part have been due to local farmers muck spreading but again, this is being investigated. Property Owner

Jessica July 2024

“Honeysuckle cottage was a lovely place to stay, with everything provided you could want - except no corkscrew!”

Not having a smartphone or satnav it took me a while to locate Trevalgas cottages but friendly natives pointed the way and then another resident told me how to reach the A39 really easily, after that getting about was plain sailing. The only downside for me and my very old dog was not being able to walk off the site to a good exercise area as the surrounding lanes were narrow and not very safe so we had to actually drive somewhere. This wouldn't worry most people.

- Jessica, July 2024

We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for your feedback and apologies about the lack of a corkscrew. We actually replaced it a month ago so not sure where its gone but another replacement purchased today! Property Owner
Lynn April 2024

“There was more included here than I had been led to believe from other reviews.”

Cupboards had egg cups and all other utensils one might need There was even complimentary tea and coffee and loo roll. There was washing up liquid and cleaning materials too. (Cork screw broken however fyi). A small sofa would be my only suggestion. Two chairs in Honeysuckle cottage perfectly adequate but I do love to put my feet up. Site was very well kept. Location ideal to get to most places. Wifi was as advertised a little dodgy. But did use it when possible. Indoor Pool was a real bonus!

- Lynn, April 2024

Thank you for your review. The corkscrew has been replaced! Regarding the sofa, we did have a sofa previously however visitor feedback was that two chairs would be better! Just a matter of personal preference I guess. Property Owner
George December 2023

“Had a great stay.”

Listing was spot on. Nice and clean lovely little cottage would definitely stay again.

- George, December 2023

We're so pleased! New flooring being installed early 2024 too so do visit again. Property Owner
Alan September 2023

“Really comfortable little cottage with nice swimming pool just opposite”

- Alan, September 2023

We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Hope you will visit again. Property Owner
Catherine September 2023

“A clean and comfortable little cottage in pleasant surroundings.”

The dogs were made welcome with throws provided to put on the bed or chairs if the dogs like to go on them, instead of a list of rules saying they’re not allowed and the enclosed garden was good for them. The cottage was well equipped with everything you would need for a week away and the bed was comfortable. The only thing I would suggest is more hangers in the wardrobe as there were only 4 but that is a minor point. We would definitely stay again.

- Catherine, September 2023

We're so pleased you liked our cottage. I visit at least twice a year and every time I buy more hangers! Will be taking replacements when I visit next month, thank you for the heads up. Property Owner

Thank you. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Keith May 2023

“Nice quiet cottage in rural setting, the use of the swimming pool was a bonus.”

the accuracy of the garden image was very deceptive, only big enough for a tortoise. The directions were very difficult to follow, thankfully with the help of locals we arrived eventually. even the locals that helped us said they were poor

- Keith, May 2023

We're sorry you found the directions unclear. As for the garden, it is small however it is perfectly adequate, with sufficient space for the table, two chairs, bbq , a small lawn and flower bed. It would have to be an extremely large tortoise! Glad you liked the pool. Property Owner
Sue March 2023

Thank you. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

“Faultless.”

- Paul, October 2022

Thank you so much for your fantastic feedback. We're so pleased that you loved our cottage. Property Owner
Sue August 2022

“The property had everything we needed and was very comfortable - especially the bed.”

The property inside was clean but the outside door /window / patio frames/ guttering etc could do with a clean - they are full of cobwebs. The handle on the inside of the bathroom door needs some attention - it comes off in your hand when you close the door. I think it could be made clearer that if you want to walk anywhere from the property there is only one way in and out of the complex and the road that you have to use is not very wide and there is no pavement. We enjoyed our stay here but won’t be returning.

- Sue, August 2022

Thank you for your feedback. I can confirm that the window cleaner has visited and carried out the external cleaning. We are attending to the bathroom door handle too. We're sorry you will not be returning. Property Owner
Lesley August 2022

“Honeysuckle cottage is set in a lovely area.”

It's so peaceful. The added benefit of the enclosed garden was perfect for our little dog ! The cottage was comfortable and well equipped with everything you would need. Although we didn't use the onsite facilities we were ensured by our neighbours in the next cottage that they were great. We would definitely book Honeysuckle Cottage again

- Lesley, August 2022

Thank you so much for your feedback. We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us. Property Owner
Graham August 2022

“Excellent !”

Location ideal for a relaxing, quiet break and as a base for visiting nearby towns/attractions. The cottage has all that one could ask for. The local managers were very competent and friendly. All in all an exceptional relaxing break in beautiful surroundings.

The cottage is just right for a couple with everything you need, unfortunately we had to leave early due to illness ( not covid) so didn't get chance to use the pool

Kerry October 2021

“We had the most enjoyable week, The cottage had everything we needed, although ...”

We had the most enjoyable week, The cottage had everything we needed, although it was smaller than I expected, if like us you are only going to use this as a base and intend to be out and about for most of the day it is perfect, it is perfectly located for visiting many tourist sites and less than a 10-minute drive from the beautiful Summerleaze beach & the town centre with plenty of shops & bars, there is also a lovely walk down by the canal, all in all, we had a lovely, relaxing week and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys long walks in tranquil surroundings

- Kerry, October 2021
Derek September 2021

Sarah September 2021

“We would like to suggest a little bin at the property to put dog mess in, so you Don't have to walk to the main car park.”

We would of been quite happy to empty this little bin daily.

- Sarah, September 2021
Susan July 2021

“This is an amazing cottage, fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, even fresh milk in the fridge and a packet of crunch creams thrown in.”

Perfect.

Marina July 2021

“This was a beautiful cottage in a fantastic location.”

It was clean and the facilities were fab. Getting the pool to ourselves for a session per Day was a Lovely touch and May be a nice thing to keep even after covid! The staff were so friendly and helpful too. We will definitely be back!

- Marina, July 2021
David June 2021

“People should be advised not to take the first tuning when travelling South on the A39 to the cottage as it is single track and I had to reverse onto a busy A road to avoid oncoming traffic.”

- David, June 2021

“Great cottage Everything we needed!”

Amazing location and facilities One thing to mention, bed seems to skip at edges making it a bit uncomfortable! Most nights we were so tired it wasn’t a problem

- Emily, August 2020
Peter September 2019

“We arrived last saturday 14/09/19, after unpacking and getting settled we sat down to watch tv for the evening, after about an hour i started to itch and scratch till we went to bed.”

the next morning when i opened the curtains the sun shone on to chair i was sat in, the whole chair was covered in dogs hair, i had to brush the hairs on to the carpet and hoover it up. The rest of the holiday was very uncomfortable plus we were finding flea,s on us. I know you have a welcome pet,s policy but should dogs be allowed to sit in the chairs that we have to sit in after. The location of the cottage was excellent, pool was great, everything else was fine.

- Peter, September 2019

I was extremely disappointed to receive your feedback via Sykes,particularly as in recent weeks we had received two 100% responses. I had already been alerted by our caretaker, Renee, who had found your note on Saturday. We always strive to provide a clean and welcoming cottage and I am upset that this did not happen on the day you arrived at Trevalgas - I have asked our caretaker to ensure that this does not happen again. With regard to fleas, during the summer months many of the cottages suffer as the result of fleas being picked up by dogs on beaches etc (or bringing them on holiday with them) however my sister had recently given all of our cottages a treatment as a precaution even though no fleas had actually been reported in our cottages so that they should not have been present! Our caretaker is carrying out another treatment to make sure there are none remaining. She would, of course, have been more than happy to carry out additional cleaning and to spray for fleas during your stay had she been aware of the problem. Finally, I note your comment regarding dogs on chairs and I certainly would not allow it, but unfortunately we cannot control what other guests do whilst they are on holiday or indeed in their own homes. I apologise that your stay was not as comfortable as it should have been and trust that despite this you did enjoy your time at Trevalgas. As you can see, your valuable feedback has been noted and appropriate action taken. Property Owner
Linda August 2019

“Had a wonderful holiday for myself and my husband with our collie dog.”

Such a peaceful spot but close to everything in Bude too. The pool is a bonus and the cottage was well equipped with everything you need. Appreciated the milk and tea and coffee and biscuits when we arrived -thank you

- Linda, August 2019

Bert April 2019

“Property well maintained and very clean.”

Cooking pans are old and tired but functional. Great location walking distance to pub with excellent food and some good public footpaths for dog walking.

The cottage was very ckean and well equipped, the swimming pool was a real luxury, could have done with more walks for the dog but overall very good

- Ian, October 2018
Pauline September 2018

“It was so relaxed and we were left alone to do as much or as little as we liked.”

Thought the pool was lovely.

- Pauline, September 2018
Liane September 2018

“Beautiful situated cottage lovely surroundings.”

Nice to have tea coffee and biscuits in cottage upon arrival along with other extras, Just What was needed aftèr long journey Defiantly will be returning.

- Liane, September 2018
Shubhjoth July 2018

“The cottage is in an ideal location with all local supermarkets and the town centre being a short 5-10 minute drive away.”

There is very little sound of passing traffic due to the location of Trevalgas cottages. As a result, the sheep and birds can be heard all throughout the day which is very calming. The cottage itself was extremely clean and comfortable. It had everything from cutlery to a fully equipped picnic basket! The on-site laundry room is especially handy and the heated swimming pool is a bonus. I would highly recommend Honeysuckle cottage to those looking for an alternative to a hotel and wish to be a little closer to nature. My partner and I, and our 2 dogs, will definitely be returning! Thank you to Reneé for the cleanliness and upkeep of the property ♡

- Shubhjoth, July 2018
Michael June 2018

“We really enjoyed staying.”

at Honeysuckle cottage, Poughill, again. So comfortable, clean & equipment first class. Our only disappointment was the heating system at the swimming baths which is letting everyone down again. The swimming pool, Games room, outside surroundings & access to Town & beautiful coast line walks are a real asset.

- Michael, June 2018
Yvonne May 2018

“This is our third visit to the property so we obviously really like the Cottage and the facilities which includes the indoor swimming pool.”

If I could have one plea it would be to replace the vacuum cleaner, its an outdated model and in need of a filter change; but the main factor is that its such hard work to try and clean up dog hairs to ensure we can leave the Cottage clean. Poughill is a lovely village, very friendly with plenty of eating places that welcome dogs. A thoroughly recommended break.

- Yvonne, May 2018
Valerie April 2018

“Onething we found the hoover supplied to clean when you leave was not efficent to remove all pet hairs maybe you can consider an upgrade.”

We did have a nice holiday and would return .We did not use the facilitys but will if we return i have no complaints about the weather because it was april .Honesuckle cottage is fine for a weeks stay and has everthing you need . milk in the fridge for our arrival plus plus a compliment of tea sugar and coffee sachets

- Valerie, April 2018
Bronwyn April 2018

“Everything was so clean.”

No cobwebs one of my bugbears always have had loads not just new ones black so have been there for ages not used you before but will in future. Renee was very helpful but not in your face. The intire site was lovely. Most enjoyable holiday we didn't want to come home

- Bronwyn, April 2018
Ron February 2018

“This lovely little cottage was very suitable for our needs, it had all that we could wish for & much more, the location was excellent & a short distance to the lovely beaches & canal at Bude.”

There was plenty of good walks for our two dogs & although the weather was inclement it did not curtail our enjoyment of the holiday. We, like other parts of the country were affected by the " beast from the east" snow blizzards towards the end of our weeks holiday but we were pleansantly surprised with the wonderful care & attention given to us by the caretaker " Renee" & her staff. We would certainly return to this site again.

- Ron, February 2018

- Ian, February 2016
Joanne August 2015

“The cottage was in a lovely position on a really good site, and even though we were aware of young children on the site it did remained quite peaceful.”

In the cottage there was ample room for just the two of us and it was very homely with plenty of facilities. I booked the cottage mainly for the indoor pool and it did not disappoint. It was clean, warm and was never full so we were able to swim freely.

- Joanne, August 2015

Jill September 2014

“The patio in the garden was a nice feature and the shared pool was excellent!”

The bench in the front of the cottage was a pleasant extra which meant we had the sun in the morning and the evening. The milk, teabags and biscuits etc. left for us on arrival were appreciated.

- Jill, September 2014
Harvey May 2014

“The Cottage was in the area we wanted it to be; close to Bude, but not in the centre.”

- Harvey, May 2014
Ian May 2014

“We found Honeysuckle Cottage to be clean and comfortable.”

Everything we might need for a weeks stay had been thoughtfully planned. Particularly appreciated was the tea, coffee and biscuits supplied on arrival. We would certainly stay again and have already recommended it to friends.

- Kenneth, June 2013
Sharon January 2013

“We certainly felt at home from the moment we arrived.”

It was lovely to have even the smallest thing supplied eg tin foil, cling film etc. It was home from home, can not praise you enough! We would like to think this could be our winter retreat home every time we want to get away from it all, thank you!

- Sharon, January 2013
Peter November 2012

“Everything was just perfect .”

About the location

BUDE

Tintagel 17 miles.

Bude is a fabulous coastal town that once visited you will want to come back to time and time again. Bude has something for everyone, great beaches for relaxing, and building sandcastles on, rockpools for investigating at low tide and cafes to watch it all from. The rolling waves are great for surfing all year round, and the footpaths by the restored canal or on the North Cornwall coastal path offer you a superb opportunity to explore and appreciate the outstanding countryside. Bude also has a superb golf course, indoor swimming pool, bowling alley/indoor play area and Heritage Centre at Bude Castle. It also has a good selection of local shops, supermarkets, cafes, pubs, restaurants and excellent Information Centre. Within a short drive are the remains of a huge iron age hill fort at Warbstow Bury, from where panoramic views can be seen. For days out, take the coast road north to see the lonely lighthouse above the sea at Hartland Point or walk or ride a donkey down the steep and cobbled village street (no cars allowed) of beautiful Clovelly to the harbour and the pub far below. Follow the coast in the other direction and there's the little cove of Crackington Haven, Boscastle, King Arthur's castle at Tintagel, Doc Martin's Port Wenn at Port Isaac and yet more great surfing beaches at Polzeath.
