The original mill stairs are quite steep and could prove difficult for the elderly and toddlers.


Outside
The mill has its own private fishing lake of about one acre which is well stocked with 20lb-plus carp. There is also a trout stream running alongside. Fishing on the lake is free to all guests.

Youngsters will enjoy collecting their own breakfast eggs from the free-range chickens or perhaps helping to look after Silas the donkey and the goats.

Red squirrels and water voles live in the area, deer have been spotted in the woods and if you are very lucky you might even catch a glimpse of the elusive black pigs that still roam wild in the region.
Kingfishers, woodpeckers and buzzards also inhabit the area.
