Joanne Mulligan, May 2026 – 5/5 on Google Reviews
Great party venue for 11 of us celebrating a friends special birthday, booking the cottage and both pods. The cottage and pods had everything you needed for a brilliant get away with friends to enjoy. The hot tub, the games room and everything else was fab and nothing was too much both for our hosts Ben & Katie. We will definitely be back; love it! - See Google Reviews Link

Mark, Feb 2025 – 5/5 on AirBnB
A lovely place to stay - even nicer than in the photos, spotlessly clean and great communication from the hosts ahead of time. The games room and hottub were very popular with kids and adults alike, and the enclosed rear yard area was great for peace of mind about the dog. All in all, a fantastic place to stay and explore the local area - Thank you!
Sarah, Oct 2025 – 5/5 on AirBnB
Had the best time away with close friends, beautifully cottage with plenty to do while there. The games room was a hit and the large kitchen was amazing
Terry, September 2025 – 5/5 on AirBnB
Fantastic stay with plenty of space. Everything we expected. Clean and plenty of space to hang out indoors and outdoors. Games room was a bonus for chilling out later on. Host was in touch on the run up with plenty of instructions and was very friendly and made sure we felt welcomed and at home. Would book again if travelling to the area. Beds were spotless. Overall very impressed. Thanks again. See AirBnB Reviews

Visited Bumblebee Cottage for the first time for a family Easter gathering and had the best time. The cottage is wonderful, with so much space and a fab courtyard and hot tub! The kids absolutely loved the games room. The cottage was immaculate and had literally everything we could have wanted/needed...plus the complimentary coffee pods went down an absolute treat!
The location is also perfect, just a short drive to Bridlington to visit the beach and the funfair! Already can't wait to come back for our next visit!!

We had a brilliant week's holiday at Bumblebee cottage. The accommodation was good and spacious, the location was great and the hot tub was brilliant! I would recommend a visit for a great family holiday.
James Hartwell, April 2022 – 5* Google Review
We had our stay at Bumble Bee Cottage and I can say that this is the best holiday cottage that we have ever stayed at. The cleanliness was second to none, facilities are fantastic and the owners are thoughtful and helpful. We stayed with family and even on rainy days there was things to do keeping us all entertained within the cottage. I would love to come back and stay again and will recommend this place to all of my family and friends.

We celebrated my husband 50th birthday , amazing accommodation. Everything you could ask for even all the little things toiletries, towels. Massive hot tub, games room, wii fit, arcade machine for the big kids /steam room. Would definitely recommend this accommodation.
Benjamin Kelly, May 2023 – 5* Google Review
We booked in last week to celebrate my 30th, and honestly, it couldn't have been more perfect. Secluded, romantic, rustic. There are two pods, The Honeypot and The Hive. We stayed in The Honeypot. Wild peacocks roam the grounds too, and they're full of character. Just don't feed them!
