Great stay, comfortable beds and well equipped property.
Overall a good place to stay, great communication with the owner.
Gavin the owner went above and beyond to send some baggage to us that we had left at the property.
Thanks for a great stay Gavin
I booked this cottage for a trip down memory lane with my 2 brothers and it didn't disappoint. It is a beautifully renovated Fens cottage, typical of the area and very similar to our grandparents' Fenland home where we spent many happy childhood holidays.We all agreed that we would not hesitate to stay at Mill Cottage again.

About the host
Hosted by Gavin GREEN
Creative industry professional who is trying to save this beautiful cottage for lovely guests. I have tried my best to save the history and charm of this fascinating home, but with your stay it keeps the dream alive, as all costs go into further restoration.
Nothing is too much for me to host you, want to order some shopping, want some flowers in the house, anything I can do to make it special for your and your family and guests.
