Mill House is a beautifully restored former grain mill where heritage details and contemporary design sit effortlessly together. Original cogs and stonework greet you on arrival, leading to a handcrafted kitchen and generous dining space perfect for relaxed or celebratory gatherings. Two inviting living areas share a double-sided wood burner, creating a warm, elegant atmosphere. Upstairs and down, five distinctive king en-suite bedrooms offer style, comfort and a sense of place. Outside, the orchard arbour, fire pit, wood-fired hot tub, Heartwood Sauna, river steps and three-acre conservation area provide a tranquil, spa-like setting for outdoor living.
Piggeries
Once a shelter for farm animals, the Piggeries has been transformed into a rustic yet stylish space linked to Mill House by a covered walkway. A wood-burning stove forms the heart of a generous dining area and bar, ideal for feasts or evening celebrations. A dedicated treatment room offers a serene spot for massages or quiet relaxation, making it an ideal place for wellness and restoration.
