  A wonderful cottage and great stay.

  There is some really useful info in the cottage, however the font of the text is really hard to read, some info about bins confusing and out of date (bin dates). E.g. the four wheeled bin at the top of the drive for rubbish, the recycling - put the bins or the bags at the top of the drive? We did our best. The central heating instructions were non-existent so we had a guess at how to use them - would rather have had instructions so we didn't break anything (needed as the kitchen end of the cottage gets quite cold). A little fan on the fire (specific ones for fires) would be great to help push the heat into the rest of the cottage. I did raise the (potential chimney) water leak in the kitchen with the office, so hopefully the owner has been made aware as the ceiling is bowing in the alcove. A little bit of chicken wire or netting on the bottom of the large gate would be great to stop the dogs escaping - we used the windbreaks so we could relax and not worry they were heading out for a swim! None of the above was a major issue at all, just hopefully a bit of info to help improve the property. It was really very lovely and felt like home, thank you :-)

  As a family we had a wonderful stay at Hargrove Farm Bungalow last week!

  The bungalow is perfectly nestled in a peaceful, countryside setting, offering a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Yet, close to all the tourist spots. The bungalow itself consists of two separate units in an L-shape that were perfect for a large family. The sleek, contemporary design of the bungalows perfectly complement the serene farm surroundings. Inside, both bungalows are all the latest amenities, including two fully equipped kitchens, stylish furnishings, and spacious living areas. The modern touches, from chic décor to high-tech facilities, ensure a luxurious stay. The hosts have truly created an ideal escape, balancing modern convenience with the tranquility of farm life. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful yet sophisticated retreat!

  Great location for touring around Devon, close to Lyme Regis and an A road that can take you East or West of there.

  Property is just off a quiet country lane, but close enough to main roads. It's part of a terrace of 3 properties, each with their own parking space. Layout inside is good with a seating area, dining table, small but well equiped kitchen, bedrooms and a bathroom. The heating is locked and controlled by the owners, which was a bit awkward when we got back late at night to a cold cabin - but we made the best of it. I'd recommend this venue for couples or solo travellers but not families. The outside area has small individually fenced off areas to sit in the sunshine, however there is no privacy between the terraced cabins - so it could be quite difficult with a reactive dog or when the neighbours are chatty but you want to just sit and relax.

  A warm, welcoming and cosy cottage in a really well connected area.

  The cottage and garden are very well looked after. The garden has an amazing bbq hut, which we didn't have time to use, but next time... I have only marked down the accuracy of listing because the way garden is photographed and mentioned doesn't fully explain the reality. The garden is separated from the house by the public driveway that gives access to the other houses. While on the surface this doesn't seem an issue, if you have a dog you can't just open a door and let it out into the garden. You need to leave the house, cross the driveway, unlock the gate and then you are in. Unfortunately for us it was pouring with rain, so it just made it a little more of hassle than ideally you would want. Not a deal breaker, just good to be aware.

  Thoroughly enjoyed our weeks stay at the Honey Bee & would definitely return.

  The peace & quiet was wonderful. Our accommodation was excellent & very spacious considering we had our Great Dane with us ! Prior to going I contacted the owners as I needed extra freezer space . They were able to provide me with a table top freezer for a very small cost of £10 for the week which I was more than happy with . There are two folders containing information of places to go , pubs , restaurants etc & many beautiful walks . The owners Sue & Les have done an amazing job throughout & have thought of everything that you may need whilst there . One of the best places I have stayed . I Highly recommend the Honey Bee & will definitely return. Only downside was having to come home ! Thank you Les .
