Questers latest visit to Honeypot House


Seven members (well 5 of us) had an exciting trip around the forest in search of the Honeypot House. The autumn colours were stunning so it made the visit even more enjoyable.

Set in 7 acres of beautiful countryside with its own swimming pool and tennis court it’s the perfect place for young people to let off steam and be children. The large airy kitchen was very welcoming and the playroom and bedrooms were filled with toys and games making it very easy for the young carers to quickly relax in such homely surroundings. There were two ponies and a few guinea pigs to make a fuss of for those feeling a little homesick. Although the house was empty of guests when we visited you could feel the love and laughter throughout the house. Long may they continue to help the young carers and if you would like to help they have 2 sessions of mailing a year and a Christmas gift wrapping day when all volunteers are most welcome.
