About this property

Blairgowrie 9 miles. Built in 1840 and located in the idyllic, tranquil riverside location, Cardean Mill is a beautiful property perched between two bridges with picturesque surroundings. Set along the banks of Dean Water and just 1 mile away from the pretty village of Meigle, known to be one of the oldest villages in Scotland, this former Lint Mill is the perfect getaway for a family or group of friends looking for a calming retreat. This fantastic renovated mill is oozing with character and retains many of its traditional features, including the working, internal mill wheel and the overhead Velux windows which create a bright and airy feel.
