The accommodation is very nice, in a lovely location. Quiet and convenient for all of our needs. Walks from the door were excellent. Monsal Trail is just 5 minutes away, albeit up a steepish path that wouldn't suit some people, and the trail can get very busy on bank holidays and weekends. The walk along the river Wye to Cressbrook and Water-cum-Jolly is delightful. Altogether a most enjoyable week and highly recommended.

The very creaky flooring in the hallway was the only concern for us, as we were worried about disturbing other residents when moving about, especially in the early morning when we took the dog for a walk. The rooms are spacious and the bathroom was very comfortable.

It was a perfect location and accommodation for us and our dog. Small negatives include a settee which had lost its bounce and a bath tap which soaked you and the floor when switched on full. Entry to the Mill was challenging initially. However, none of these spoilt our stay.
