History
Established in 2015.
The previous owners ran the property as a very successful B&B business for 25 years. We have under gone a programme of sensitive renovations to take the property into its next era. We opened our first two cottages (The Hayloft & Millers Cottage) in the Summer of 2015. The Long Barn opened in July 2016.
Since owning the properties we have sympathetically renovated through-out, added a play park for children, installed a 100m nature walk, perfect for dogs, provided a new summerhouse and picnic areas for guests to enjoy.
Meet the Business Owner: Liz S.
Both my husband and I have always loved travelling, we have experienced great hospitality and have been fortunate enough to have holidayed in many beautiful and memorable locations worldwide. We wanted to recreate our experience of great hospitality in beautiful surroundings, by developing our own small holiday cottage business. After much searching of the local area, we were lucky enough to buy the Old Mill in November 2014. As soon as we saw The Old Mill we immediately fell in love with its beautiful setting and amazing architecture. We knew this would be our ideal family home and a fantastic opportunity to develop into our business dream of creating a small holiday cottage complex. My background is in sales, my husband is a furniture designer (For many of the high street brands). With a young family, we soon realised that our busy lives would need to change (Long hours, oversea business travel, frequent business meeting around the UK). So this is where the plan was hatched! I
