Have you had any strange questions asked by guests on booking ?

 Spill the beans ! There must be some about France    Eg   "Do you serve frogs legs ?  "

The Daily Telegraph recently published a list of questions asked by tourists whilst on their travels: "Why did they build so many ruined castles and abbeys in England?" "Are there any lakes in the Lake District?" "What is the entry fee for Brighton?" "Why on earth did they build Windsor Castle on the flight path of Heathrow?" "Is Wales closed during the winter?" "What time of night does the Loch Ness monster surface and who feeds it?" "Was this man-made?" asked a tourist at the Grand Canyon National Park "Are there supermarkets in Sydney and is milk available all year round?" "How much of the caves are underground?" |

"Do you have barking dogs"

"No, just the wife"

Favourites - from an American guest

'A 14th century bridge? Gee, we didn't even HAVE a 14th century"

and

How recently did they build that medieval castle?

And from an English guest (true)

Oh, I'm surprised you take French.

From a Swiss couple who tried to do a runner without paying B&B bill" Do you have any organic honey?

For a holiday cottage:

Does your caretaker speak English, and will they be able to book restaurants for us and things like that?

and the next question was:

We hope there aren't too many English people in the area, we want to feel we are abroad. Are there many?
