Lewinshope Mill is a quite spectacular conversion of the old mill at Lewinshope Farm, in the beautiful and peaceful Yarrow Valley, 5 miles from Selkirk in the Scottish Borders. Situated behind the farm buildings, it opens right on to the hill and there are panoramic views up and down the valley. The old mill wheel can still be seen, and the millpond has also been preserved (care required with young children.) The grass and gravel areas around the Mill have furniture and BBQ.

Accommodation

The internal layout is unique and offers most luxurious accommodation.
There is a large, open-plan sitting room with open fire, TV and stereo; this leads on to an adjoining state of the art kitchen.
The mezzanine floor is above the kitchen and overlooks the main living area. It features a TV with optional headphones and a large sofa bed for use as an open bedroom for an additional couple.
The entrance floor also has a double bedroom with private sauna and wet-room which is wheelchair accessible.
A boot room and WC complete the accommodation.
Downstairs there are three further bedrooms, all with superking beds which can configure as singles, and all with their private bathrooms with either baths, sauna (photo below), showers or steam shower.
There is also a utility room with all the laundry facilities.

Facilities

Bedlinen, towels, Eco friendly woodchip and underfloor heating, electricity and wifi are all INCLUDED.
Dogs are welcome by arrangement but must be kept under control (livestock in adjoining fields). Dogs will only be allowed to stay in the bootroom.
The excellence of the accommodation is matched by the wide variety of activities which can be enjoyed right here on the farm.
Catering services can be provided, and on request, a freezer full of homemade food can be waiting for you on arrival.
The local Tesco/Asda will deliver groceries ordered online.
Cots and highchairs can be provided.
The farm has its own all weather tennis court and a barn with table tennis and table football.
Tennis coaching, art lessons, cookery demonstrations, massage and beauty treatment and adventure sports can all be arranged right here at The Mill.
Fishing, shooting, etc. can be organised locally.

Location

In the immediate area, you can walk for miles in the green Border hills and woodlands; sail or windsurf at St Mary's Loch; ride or play golf; while the world class mountain biking centres at Glentress and Innerleithen are only 15 miles away. (The Mill provides safe storage and a wash-down facility for bikes.)
The Duke of Buccleuch's Bowhill Estate (house, country park, adventure playground, walks and little theatre) is opposite the farm.
Nearby Selkirk have, deli, pubs, restaurants, woollen mill, golf course and swimming pool, and further afield there are all the other Border towns, ruined abbeys, castles and stately homes to visit and explore. It is unlikely that any party member will be bored at The Mill!
