A very convivial evening with a lovely ambience in a cosy room. There were a couple of log burning fires. Breakfast was in the main dining area overlooking the extensive grounds and waters that fed the mill.
The food in the evening was excellent and breakfast very nice. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The bar had a couple of decent beers. The gardens I imagine would be great in the summer months.

Amazing 5* service
We stayed here for one night. Our room was lovely, very clean and cosy, lots of lovely touches to make it homely and they thought of everything including a fresh bottle of water and milk in the fridge.
The shower and bath were both great and everything was spotless.
We ate dinner in the restaurant that night, it was packed but the service was fantastic and the food delicious, we both had the mussels. The cocktails were brilliant too, we’d already had a cocktail each earlier in the afternoon and I wanted a pornstar martini as my next one, the bar man said they ran out of something that was needed and I let out an ‘nooooooo’ as they are my favourite. He then said he was sure he could figure something out and he still made me it, and it was as delicious as they always are.
We also had the breakfast in the morning, we both had a yogurt compot with granola and then the full English and that was delicious too. I also saw a lady come in who had wanted one of the yogurt compots but we had the last ones and the girl serving went and made her one. Nothing was too much for the staff here! The service is incredible.
We would definitely recommend and we will definitely go back in the future.

We took a short midweek break at the old mill. We were looking for somewhere quiet and secluded and weren't disappointed.
The room we booked had a lovely terrace that would have been nice to sit out in had the weather not been so wet.The room itself was warm, clean and very quiet. It was in a house separated from the mill itself which meant a short walk to breakfast and dinner but we didnt mind that. We booked dinner there for our stay and were impressed with the quality of the food and the variety of dishes. There was also a fantastic selection of drinks on offer. The old mill really is a lovely tranquil place to stay and I can honestly say we have come away feeling relaxed and chilled out. The staff were welcoming, kind and friendly. Thankyou to everyone who made our stay so great. We will definitely be back again soon. I would add that if you book direct with the old mill they offer incentives to do so. We will be making sure we do this in future.

Welcome stay for the boatshow
The Old Mill provided superb comfortable accommodation (in the neighbouring building) for a short visit to Southampton. All staff were extremely helpful and friendly with everything from check in to checking out. A well recommended stay for the area with the maintenance of the old mill ponds and races adding to the aesthetics of the restored mill building.

This place is off the beaten path, with wild horses, ponies, and donkeys roaming the streets and fields. The property is beautiful and has something for everyone. The staff includes some of the warmest, friendliest people who make you feel like family. They repeatedly assisted us without prompting and wouldn't accept tips. The staff was happy, kind, and absolutely lovely. The restaurant was cozy with a fire on a cool evening, the food was yummy, and I just can't say enough about the people. It is well worth the trip!

Comfortable overnighter
Friendly greeting on arrival and efficient advance check-in process. Room delightfully airy, spacious and comfortable with view over garden and courtyard dining area. Evening dinner ‘ok’ (nothing to write home about); service nice and friendly. Room well insulated, so didn’t hear overnight storm! Breakfast very good and tasty. Thank you

The "double" room was small and cramped, very hot (even on a particularly mild evening), and extremely noisy, with loud music from the bar downstairs during the whole evening, and in the morning from 8am (for some reason). Lovely location but not an ideal place if you want a quiet and peaceful break.

The bedroom we stayed in was immaculate, but the tables, cups, glasses & cutlery in the restaurant were not so clean. The continental breakfast & croissants were very disappointing.
