Honeysuckle Cottage
Description
Cleverly converted by the enterprising owners, this attractive single storey outbuilding has been transformed into a beautifully presented holiday home. Step inside and the attention to detail is evident with the harmony of polished pine floorboards imparting natural warmth and a sense of flow throughout the interior. Open style for convenience and innovatively arranged to maximise space, the living room features a smart cream kitchen with oak worktops along with clearly defined dining and seating areas. Examples of the owner's craftsmanship as a Potter are evident in the artefacts displayed and pictures from well known local artists adorn the walls. Patio doors opening onto the garden afford the main bedroom a sunny double aspect, whilst the twin bedded room positioned opposite the bathroom is neatly presented. Time can be idled away relaxing in the south facing garden, a private and sheltered haven in which to enjoy al-fresco dining on a balmy summer's evening.
Tucked down a lane on the edge of the village within walking distance of the popular Lion & Lamb pub, when you feel the need to explore keen walkers will find ample opportunity for scenic coastal rambles over National Trust land to Rinsey Head and down to its rugged cove or westwards to the golden stretch of Praa Sands beach and eastwards to the quaint fishing harbour at Porthleven.
Keen golfers may like to try their skill at the nearby Praa Sands Golf course. Well positioned for touring the Lizard Peninsula, Land's End or St Ives, a fine choice of beaches and tourist attractions await your discovery. Close by a walk up Tregonning Hill will be rewarded by superb panoramic views encompassing two coastlines on a clear day. Sharing the drive with the owners who reside opposite, there is allocated parking for one car

What guests are saying
Very well appointed, comfortable and attractive cottage with all contents required.
Well positioned for exploring the Lizard Peninsula and coast down to Land's End with Praa sands beach a short drive away. We had a lovely stay.
This cottage was exactly what we needed.
Very peaceful and tranquil.....but only a 5 minute walk to the local pub...very handy! Close to Porthlevan which is a lovely harbour both great for walks on the coastal path and surrounding area, and also great for foodies with local pubs and restaurants. The Lizard Penisula is a short drive away with lovely walks and beaches. We would highly recommend this beautiful cottage and will definitely be back in the future.
We spent a week here as a group of four in late August/early September.
The cottage is situated on the northern edge of Ashton, set back in a second row of properties. Surrounded by high hedges and fences, the plot offers a distinctly enclosed and secluded atmosphere—though those hoping for expansive views may find them lacking here. Inside, the property is very prettily decorated. Operating the electric shower became clear after a quick search online. By design, however, opting for warmer water comes at the expense of water pressure. While the washing machine performs its task admirably, drying your clothes requires strategic planning and favorable weather; due to the high indoor humidity, even towels struggle to dry properly inside the cottage. The kitchen inventory is tailored precisely for a single day’s use for four people, encouraging prompt and daily dishwashing. When preparing meals together, the kitchen offers an exceedingly cozy closeness. The hosting style is exceptionally hands-off, as we did not meet the owners during our stay. Given this independence, a simple written message via WhatsApp or the booking system regarding the key location would have felt more seamless than a phone call.
