The Lint Mill

An absolutely beautiful and peaceful place to unwind and relax. Colin & Deborah, the hosts, really have created a very special place, with nature, wildlife and their animals at the heart of everything they do and they take delight in sharing their knowledge and their passion. This really is a place to take some time out, grab a book from their fabulous eclectic library, from pig breeding, goat husbandry to rewilding & fiction, there is a book for everyone and best of all, you can read whilst enjoying a wonderful roaring log fire and sinking into big squishy sofas. A very special place.

The Lint Mill is a small farm with sheep, goats, chickens, pigs and other animals, all looked after by Deborah and Colin with a strong commitment to environmental responsibility. They are delightful hosts – Colin helped our seven-year-old granddaughter get to know the baby goats, much to her absolute delight. He also cooks dinner and breakfast, all from locally-sourced produce – all delicious. The bed and breakfast accommodation is self-contained and is very comfortable and well supplied with everything you need. Highly recommended.

An amazing space, an amazing experience, hosted by amazing people Debbie and Colin. After a 2 night stay (not long enough) we headed home with great positivity and much refreshed. If only such a source of wellbeing was available on prescription I would take it gladly. Everything about The Lint Mill oozes quality and comfort at the same time. Thank You Both for sharing.

How do they do it time and time again? If your criteria includes a warm and delightful welcome, lovely and comfortable accommodation and good food then look no further. We have visited three or four times before and we look forward to returning in the future.You can also have a relaxing peace and quiet or share it with hens, geese and goats. Deborah and Colin are outstanding.

The Lint Mill is a beautiful place to stay at multiple levels. Most simply, the secluded location, standard of accommodation & the food (the vast majority grown on the smallholding, we'd recommend booking dinner) makes it feel like a luxury escape. More deeply, spend time talking with Deborah & Colin about their ethos in caring for their land & animals and you find yourself being inspired and 'earthed'. In a post pandemic world everything felt very Covid secure with plenty of sanitizer. This was our third time staying as a family and our children are already asking when we can return.
