Mill Cottage Family Memories
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.
