English Heritage Listed Mill and smallholding

The property is part of an English Heritage Listed water mill that used to grind corn ,and this part used to be the Millers' home- the yellow lower building -the host lives next door in the converted mill.Sadly the water wheel long gone,but the mill pit survives and sympathetic renovations ensures the character of this unique and lovely ancient building remain.If you love quirky old buildings with antique furniture ,stone walls and beams- and friendly sheep,this is the place for you! There is a wealth of original features in the property such as exposed stone walls and oak beams. Millers'Cottage is heated by renewable technology via an air source heat pump which also heats the constant hot water.This is a totally unique property ,ancient, full of character and atmosphere,whilst being spacious and light with a welcoming ambience. The whole Mill and barns sits in it's own one and a half acres of grounds & is surrounded by fields---it is adjoining a small river which is a lovely peaceful place to sit and watch the wild life and relax.There is a large seating area out side the kitchen,with table and chairs,plus guests are free to wander/sit by the river in the meadow.,and say hello to the sheep(they like a handful of ivy!)There are ancient cobbles down to the cottage and uneven ground which can be slippery.The cottage has it's own entrance.Please note the cottage has:- Ground floor-large lounge/dining area,separate kitchen.Upstairs to 1st floor with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom with free standing bath and toilet,washbasin-Up stairs to 2nd floor,again with 2 bedrooms and bathroom with shower over,toilet and vanity unit.Parking for up to 2 cars.DUE TO COVID PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN TOWELS,THANK YOU.
