70th Birthday Weekend
The Old Mill was a great place to celebrate a birthday with plenty of space for the 3 generations of our family. Imelda's cake was a bonus!

Nice house but a very tired garden also the stairs to the kitchen are shocking & unsafe for young kiddies to walk down also the older generation as very steep very tight very poor design but a nice location but I’d certainly change the stairs as we wouldn’t return purely for that factor

A wonderful weekend
We rented the property for a reunion of 8 women friends over 60 as it provided enough bed space to spread out. It was ideal and we had plenty of laughs going up and down the spiral staircase, some of us with creaking joints! The owners were very helpful and we enjoyed Imelda's chocolate cake. Only thing missing was a folder of instructions for the use of the equipment and numbers such as local doctors etc, and we'd have liked a visitors book to write in.

Girls walking weekend.
Excellent location we could begin our walks directly from the property. Everyone commented that the beds were very comfortable and the lounge had plenty of sofas enough for everyone. The stairs to the kitchen and dining room were a bit steep for some of the older members of our party, but the dinning area was spacious for us to eat in. Good value for money and would recommend.

June family holiday from USA
All 10 of us had a lovely holiday (5 adults and 5 children.) Beautiful setting, gorgeous views and countryside. Local butchers and post office. We were lucky to be there for the village carnival, so much fun, just like stepping back in time. Terence and Imelda were great hosts, Imelda baked 2 delicious chocolate cakes for us during our stay. Lots of room for us all, My husband and I stayed in the cottage which was comfortable.

Family holiday - three generations
The main property is on three levels with a spiral staircase between the bottom floor and the middle floor and a more conventional staircase to the bedroom on the upper floor. The lounge is on the middle floor and the kitchen and dining room on the bottom floor. This did not cause our group of 5 adults, aged between 35 and 67 years, and 5 children aged 7 to 10 years. I think the children enjoyed the novelty. The place is very well equiped with cutlery, crockery, kitchen utensils and pots and pans. The big dining table could seat 10 comfortably and there was also a small table for 2 or 3. The cottage, which sleeps 2, is completely separate, also well equiped, and the entrance is not in the same courtyard but is 20 metres up the road from the main gate. This splits the family up but meant that the oldest member could have some peace and quiet.

Spacious property in Holloway
This is a great place to stay with lovely walks in the valley along the canal and past all kinds of industrial heritage, old mills etc. Much more is in easy reach by car. The property itself has a quirky layout which makes it feels even larger than it is - and means big groups can comfortably enjoy the space without feeling crowded. Great value too.

Base camp
Very interesting and quirky house. Great views over the valley and would be a lovely spot for walking from. We visited for a family wedding where we needed space for a large group. We were out most of the time, hosts couldn’t do enough for us and also baked a delicious cake on arrival. The spiral staircase is narrow and quite steep. My only criticism would be that the house was cold when we arrived and didn’t really warm up until the following day. I suspect it had been unoccupied for a while with the heating being off/low prior to our booking.

Great for friends and family get togethers.
I stayed with 8 of my friends to celebrate a belated 50th birthday delayed due to the pandemic. We had everything we needed to enjoy a weekend with friends going on a local walk using the local pub very friendly and just relaxing in the peaceful countryside. Would also like to say a big thank you to the owners whom had baked us a beautiful chocolate cake very much appreciated.
