Guests say
Honeysuckle Lodge in Dartmouth, Devon, is highly praised for its cleanliness, stunning views, and comfort. Guests appreciate the well-equipped lodge, beautiful sunsets, and the thoughtful welcome pack. While there is a minor issue with the front door lock and a mention of a lack of cleaning products, these do not detract from the overall excellent experience.
Guests consistently note the lodge's cleanliness, describing it as clean, bright, and tidy. One minor complaint about the lack of cleaning products provided does not significantly impact the high cleanliness standards observed by guests.
The lodge boasts spectacular views and is in proximity to dog-friendly beaches and the South Hams district, making it an ideal base for touring. The peaceful setting is also appreciated, contributing to a high score for location.
Reviewers find the lodge comfortable and akin to a home from home, with no negative comments on comfort. The lodge's provision of a comfortable environment contributes to a high comfort score.
The lodge is described as well-equipped and beautifully presented, with a mention of a welcome pack and provided appliances. However, the score is slightly lowered due to a reported issue with the front door lock and the need for guests to purchase cleaning products.
While guests mention a welcome pack and appreciate the thoughtfulness, there is not enough information to determine if such gestures are consistent across all stays. Therefore, it is politely noted that such gifts are not guaranteed, and the score is set to null.

Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.

Quiet and private. We really appreciated the welcome basket.

The owners were around but not intrusive to ensure our stay was going OK. The welcome pack of local goodies was unexpected and really nice. Views from the balcony were superb and sunsets unforgettable. Ideal base for touring the South Hams district. Highly recommended. Sykes after booking service was utterly useless so don't bank on Sykes being helpful in a timely manner if you need to modify the booking.

The views and sunsets were amazing. I would recommend a stay here and will return with my family as the park has an additional 3 lodges. Exceptional!
