A wonderful place that is very private with magnificent view! The decor is tastefully done and equipped with high end appliances and dishware.

We four had an exceptional stay at this beautiful cottage on Southern Bay Arm! Great sunsets and beach access! The cottage had all the amenities, and more that one could wish for.

One of the best.
We had a lovely experience at Mayo Cottage. We loved every bit of our stay there. I also enjoyed reading about the history of the cottage and it's owners (I highly recommend reading it). The only issue we had was the cottage only had two beds. From what we understood, we were expected three beds, but the downstairs sofa was more than spacious and comfortable enough to have a great nights sleep on. Thank you again for a wonderful vacation, we look forward to staying with you again in the future.

Poor driveway ruined an otherwise beautiful holiday getaway
The cottage was beautiful and the views were stunning. However, we had a situation happen on the second day of our two day stay that really ruined the second day of our vacation there. I feel that this could have been prevented. Going into the mayo cottage, There is a very steep driveway that requires a sharp turn from the highway. We managed to enter the driveway OK although we were not advised that we should be cautious when doing do. I feel this could have been included in the welcome email with the important information. We had rain the first evening and rain the next morning. When we went to head out to Bonavista that second day, our car got stuck in the loose wet gravel on the top of the steep driveway. To make a long story short, we had to get our car towed which cost $200, which we paid ourselves. The money was not the only issue. It literally took me all day to find someone between Bonavista and Clarenville to come and help us. A gentleman from Oceanview towing company did, and he was very helpful. We appreciated him very much, although we were very sorry that we had to spend our second day of our vacation at the mayo cottage waiting for a tow. It was all very stressful, not what we hoped for our holiday. I was nervous on our departure having to exit this driveway. Thankfully, I made it out ,but feel this was an unnecessary amount of stress and expense. My recommendation would be until this driveway is paved at least advise future clientele of this issue.
