    It was a lovely place to stay and was very well equipped apart from the fact that for the price the towels were rather poor quality and some of us were cold in bed and there were no extra blankets.

    We loved everything about the mill -its location, the accommodation, the attention to detail both inside and out and the generosity of the hosts in providing so much food and drink. We even enjoyed sitting down together and watching the video about the restoration of the mill. A magical venue in which to celebrate an 80th birthday . Thank you so much.
