Guestbook for Mayfly Cottage
Our stay at Mayfly Cottage was very enjoyable ,a beautiful setting ,owners friendly and house sitter. The cottage was clean and a very good choice on price and setting. (The dripping tap needs mending and maybe better path to cottage as its at present stepping stones in grass ,cottage is carpeted , so its shoes off every time you come in as grass is a little muddy, it was February though!) No big deal though! Good cycling country ,hard to find a ugly property round about churches interesting and all the food (cafes pubs ) we had out was good value and good quality
