About this property
Mayfly Cottage is a gorgeous and traditional cottage tucked away on the edge of the truly stunning Cotswold village of Coln St Aldwyns. Sitting in the grounds of the owners' fabulous home the holiday cottage enjoys a beautiful location with fields and mature woodland surrounding, plus a garden which overlooks the River Coln. Heavenly! 200 years old this old barn has been converted so as to retain the character and feel. The old owl hole, original beams and loft remain, whilst central heating and the high standard of equipment ensure complete comfort whatever the season. Country walks can begin from your doorstep and the centre of the village with its excellent pub (The New Inn) and village stores are only a five minute stroll. This is a very popular cottage with many guests returning year after year - you will understand!

Lovely walks from our doorstep. Lovely village, store and pub. David, the owner, charming, friendly and informative whilst unintrusive. We loved the chickens, pigs, owner's dear little dogs, the tree house and zip wire. Mayfly Cottage worked very well for us as a comfy and tranquil base to explore the beautiful Cotswolds.

A very warm welcome by David the owner who had left us cake, milk and fresh eggs waiting for us when we arrive the eggs were so fresh - lovely to be met by chickens in the garden. The owners dogs are just adorable and so friendly just a pleasure to meet. This place is a quiet haven in a very picturesque part of the country a delightful quaint cottage . We hope to go there again there are plenty places to visit, we were out all day returning in the evening to relax -

Itâs clever conversion from an old barn makes it a comfortable and cosy cottage for two to enjoy. The owners were friendly and welcomed us to this secluded spot along side the Old Mill and freedom to roam the charming garden with chickens and a couple of pigs. The village is a short walk away and an interesting place to take time to know plus it has a well stocked shop. An ideal location from which to explore the Cotswold by foot or by car.
