The Experience

Fields of sheep and a rushing river surround this peaceful converted mill. You have your own wing with sitting room, separate entrance and garden so you’ll feel nicely private.

Your hosts’ passion for living off the land is inspiring – meet their rare breeds of sheep, pigs and hens whose meat and eggs will end up on your plate, along with fruit and veg from the kitchen garden. Peacocks wander and the dogs, Golden Guernsey goats and geese are all part of life on this working smallholding – and you can sign up for craft and farm courses or a rejuvenating ‘solo retreat’.

You’re very well looked after: tea and cake in the conservatory, tasty breakfasts, a lunch platter if you don’t want to go out, or a packed lunch for day trips, and seasonal dinner with a bit of notice. It’s a two-mile wander to the pub.

Reviews

Sarais, Rugby

Lovely peaceful place, very comfortable, friendly, with marvellous cooking! Enjoyed all the animals and interesting chat.


s, Scotland

Lint Mill is a relaxing oasis of calm. Colin is a warm, friendly host who made sure we felt very much at home. Dinner was a delight; cooked from excellent, organic home grown meat, fruit and vegetables. So many generous extras and considered details throughout the house made it a pleasure to visit. Thank-you.


gill

Nothing is too much trouble for these lovely hosts. Fab food with no airmiles! Great nights sleep in lovely linen and comfy bed.


richard

The Lint Mill offers a truly delightful experience in a number of ways: peaceful, attractive location; great hospitality (with excellent food); constant interest (thanks not least to the 'farmyard' animals); really comfortable and relaxing accommodation. Debbie and Colin are an inspiration. We certainly hope to return.


Graham

A wonderfully peaceful place with hosts who go the extra mile. Excellent value for money with superb cooking using their own organic produce where possible.


Location

The neighbourhood

The Lint Mill is down a long drive, on the bank of the North Medwyn river, so you can stay as secluded as you like, exploring the gardens and admiring the animals and productive vegetable plots. To stretch your legs beyond the smallholding, choose a walk suggested by your hosts, through woods, farmland or along the river where with luck you might spy a kingfisher or an otter. Two miles away is a village with pubs, shop and post office.
