Guests say

The Honey Pot receives high praise for its cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped nature, with special mentions of a warm welcome and thoughtful touches. Its location offers scenic views and is ideal for exploring the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley. The hot tub is a highlight, adding to the property's charm.

Reviewers consistently describe the property as spotlessly clean, immaculate, and well-maintained, indicating a very high standard of cleanliness.

The property is appreciated for its scenic views and quiet setting, with good transport links and proximity to local attractions. However, one mention of traffic noise slightly impacts the score.

Guests find the cottage cosy, comfortable, and homely, with a spacious bed and quality furnishings. The warm and inviting atmosphere contributes to the property's comfort.

The property is well-equipped with a hot tub, quality kitchen amenities, and a wet room. The lack of a washing machine is noted, and Wi-Fi is described as patchy, which slightly lowers the score.

Many guests mention the thoughtful welcome gifts and provisions, which contribute to a pleasant stay. While these gifts are highly appreciated, it is politely noted that such offerings are subject to change and not guaranteed.

  • Corinna

    The view from the cottage is amazing and the Hot Tub is an extra bonus. The owner is very helpful and welcoming.

  • Patrick

    The Honey Pot was of a very high standard with everything first class. Warm comfortable and very well equipped. For us the highlight of our stay was the fabulous HOT TUB. Also not forgetting the welcome pack which included a bottle of wine.

  • Misbah

    She was very warm and welcoming. Would definitely visit again. The honey pot really is a nice place to get away and relax.
