Ideal cottage for our requirements. We have visited North Yorkshire on a number of occasions and we found the location perfect to explore all that the area has to offer. The garden was delightful and after a day out we were able to sit outside and enjoy a glass of wine on the terrace. The chiminea was very useful particularly on the chillier evenings. Overall the quality and comfort of the cottage was of a very high standard.

This is an ideal combination; a country cottage in the heart of a lovely market town. All its amenties are on your doorstep and there's no need for a 'nominated driver' when eating out. Helmsley is a great place for exploring the surrounding countryside and its attractions and the town itself is delightful. If you're looking at this property on-line you'll see that there is no off-street parking, but almost opposite is a street where you can park if you return to the cottage before the shops shut and once they have, you can park outside the cottage. ##### Howard This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Toni Aug 20, 2019 #### The cottage itself is lovely although we feel that it should be a 3 person cottage as the fourth bed The cottage itself is lovely although we feel that it should be a 3 person cottage as the fourth bed was a metal framed pull out type bed and the second bedroom was very small for 2 people. The cottage is situated on the through road of the village so can be very noisy. There is secondary glazing in the lounge but not in the front bedroom which meant that we were woken by cars and farming vehicles from 5:30am on several days of our stay. As there were 4 of us and some people wanted to stay home whilst others went out we asked the owners for a extra door key as only one was supplied, the owners kindly dropped one off to us within 24hours. Lots of local things to do. ##### Toni This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Aug 8, 2019 #### A lovely well equipped cottage ideally located in Helmsley.

Parking the car was no problem just alongside the Cottage. My wife and I have been visiting Helmsley for the past 20 years so, know the area very well. We lived abroad for twelve years and still came to Helmsley for holidays, sometime for stays up to nine weeks during the Christmas season as we didn't get snow where we lived. No one will be disappointed booking Honeysuckle Cottage as the interior is spotless and the garden is terrific and so well kept, (also very private). Highly recommended, we will definately be back !!!! ##### Rick This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie Feb 28, 2019 #### We had a fantastic time at Honeysuckle cottage. We had a fantastic time at Honeysuckle cottage. The property itself is beautifully presented, much nicer than the photos, and really well equipped. The owners have thought of everything. We loved the garden (despite being February!), and the kitchen was great and contained every utensil you could possibly need! The location is perfect too, moments on foot from the centre of Helmsley which is a beautiful market town, and close to lots of great day trips. We really hope to be back again soon. ##### Katie ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Williams Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Williams-Lake-Hotels.d4112.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Downtown Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Vancouver-Vancouver-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n6058432-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in San Francisco](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels.d178305.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with an Indoor Pool in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Hotels-With-Indoor-Pool.0-0-d178314-tHotelswithIndoorPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Labelle](https://www.expedia.ca/Labelle-Hotels.d6055434.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Pet-friendly Hotels in Halifax](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d602873-tPetfriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Hotel in Argentina](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Argentina-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d8-tBeachHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Punta de Mita](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-De-Mita-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d601729-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels.d4138.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from YTO-All Airports to Vancouver Intl.](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yto/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Chantilly (IAD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/iad/vancouver-to-washington) > > [Air Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Canada-Flights.cAC.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Spirit Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Spirit-Airlines-Flights.cNK.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Cars > [Hertz Car Rentals In Halifax](https://www.expedia.ca/Hertz-Car-Rentals-In-Halifax.d602873-c40.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Packages > [Cabo San Lucas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas.d180032.Destination-Travel-Guides)
