Lauren
From the moment we arrived we loved it, there was 4 of us staying for the week, Chris was really welcoming and showed us around indoors & the outside area also available to contact via WhatsApp. Our week here was lovely, the views of the river from every window of the house was lovely and relaxing, the outdoor space, seating areas and hot tub was also a lovely addition, plenty of space inside the living area, dining and kitchen area. Had lovely cosy evenings with the fire going and games provided with the property. There was a welcome package and note left for us in arrival which was a really lovely touch also and an information pack to recommend walks, places to eat etc and the history of the mill which was lovely to read through. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all perfect and very comfortable also, especially the bath in the Jack and Jill bathroom which I stayed in, Overall we had a lovely stay despite a few rainy days but that didnt hinder out experience. Perfect getaway in the Lake District!
The property and location are stunning. It was one of the very rare occasions where it is even better in the flesh than portrayed on the website and it is pretty impressive on there!. We were all blown away by it. Also fantastic communications with the owners Chris and Julie.
Truly beautiful setting. The house has everything you would need, including a hot tub, plenty of seating to take in the views, a wood burning stove and very good wifi. The beds are comfortable and each bedroom has its own bathroom. Chris and Julie are lovely hosts and help you ,are the most of the holiday. We would very much like to return. Thank you.
Our The Old Water Mill review: What a beautiful place! The mill and it's surroundings provide everything for a tranquil holiday away from the beaten track but still within a short driving distance of local amenities. The house itself is spacious and has been beautifully decorated, and the gardens and flowing river surrounding it are stunning. Chris and Julie are perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble. We greatly appreciated the recommendations for eating out, and can highly recommend The Black Labrador. Thank you, we hope to return!
A truly special place and property THANK YOU
