Beyond exceptional
We had the best stay at the cottage, it was beautiful inside, all doing perfectly, extremely clean-which made us have a very comfortable stay. So much was provided for us, we felt right at home. I messaged the host about the bins and got a reply straight away.
Nothing that can be helped by host but was a bit noisy with people going past the house in the evening and not being overly quiet but it didn’t last too long

A lovely stay ruined by unpleasant host messages
We thought the cottage itself was lovely. A great deal of care has clearly been taken to ensure it is well-equipped, and there were many thoughtful touches throughout the property that made for an enjoyable stay.
Unfortunately, after our departure we received a highly accusatory and officious message from the host stating that their housekeeper had reported children's drawings on a bedroom wall, stains on bedding, and marks on the carpeted stairs. The message went on to suggest that a claim might be made against us for cleaning and remedial costs.
We responded immediately and explained that nobody in our party had drawn on the walls, that the stain on one pillowcase had been present when we arrived, and that marks on the stairs seemed unlikely to have come from us as shoes were removed at the door throughout our stay.
It later transpired that the marks on the wall were chalky in nature (we had no chalk with us), and we heard nothing further regarding the carpet. Once the host had personally attended the property, the matter appears to have been dropped entirely.
What disappointed us most was not the fact that questions were raised, but the tone in which they were raised. We had left the cottage in good condition and felt we were treated as though wrongdoing had already been established. A more appropriate approach would have been to ask whether we had any knowledge of the issues rather than immediately implying responsibility and threatening a financial claim.
Even if some of the matters raised had been attributable to us, the handling of the situation was, in our view, unacceptable. Guests are customers, not schoolchildren to be reprimanded. Properties that accommodate families will inevitably require some routine cleaning and turnaround between stays.

Beautiful cottage!!
Honeybee cottage is the most beautiful little cottage situated in the heart of Cowes. A short 5 minute walk to the town centre, where there are lots of little shops, bakeries, bars & restaurants. Everything on the island is about 25 minutes drive away in each direction so it’s the perfect location if you want to spend time exploring the Isle of Wight!
The cottage has been decorated beautifully, and you can tell a lot of effort has been put into the interiors and I found myself taking pictures of where things were from for my own house! Overall we had such a lovely stay celebrating my parents wedding anniversary- would definitely recommend! 🩷
Nothing it was all beautiful! There isn’t parking at the cottage however we parked right by the harbour in the pay & display - fairly cheap, I think it was around £40 for 3 nights.

Located in the center of Cowes, beautiful and spacious place, well-equipped kitchen, beautiful bathrooms. Wonderful awakening in the morning with harbor view.
stairs might be uncomfortable for guests with children or elderly (but anyway, steep stairs are common in the UK)
