Had a cracking time staying at the old mill. We cycled out from Sudbury station along tiny lanes - no car needed! The mill was an atmospheric and beautiful place to stay. All the fittings etc were high quality and comfortable.

A very pleasant holiday cottage with lovely views and walks all around. We enjoyed our stay and were near family to enjoy the family celebration. A very peaceful place.

I booked this property as a surprise for my wife and we were not disappointed. It was a comfortable, quirky, high quality property, very well equipped and comfortable. The location was ideal for walking our dog Ripley and we especially enjoyed the walk to the Fox in Bulmer for a lovely lunch and beer from their own brewery. The clear sky's gave us the opportunity to see the ISS and Jupiter in the cold evenings and then back to the log burner to warm up. Nice touches like the dog bed, welcome pack and quality toiletries made our stay extra special. We will be back.
