    Location stunning, looking out the windows into the garden. So homely and comfy. Love the little touches like the homemade jam in the fridge, bread, milk, fresh eggs from the chickens that roam freely.

Nestled in a large half acre of tree-filled garden, Bumblebee Cottage in its rural setting is fully fenced, romantic, practical and charming. Birdsong fills the air. The flat countryside and sealed road invite walks and biking. We have fully equipped the kitchen with pantry basics as well. The house was built for purpose in 2005. It is as close to a home as it can be, with good linen supplied, comfortable new furniture, in an antique setting. We focus on all aspects of our guests' comfort, warmth and serenity. Large lawns for parking under trees,, sky tv and wifi and a bath with shower over. We supply many extra toiletries and items people need when away from home. Even toothpaste and toothbrushes, cleansing items, bath gels, extra tissues and headache remedies. In the 17 years we have been in business we can happily state we have only had positive feedback from our guests, many of whom return over and over. Cosy and cute, yet practical and comfortable.
