The Manor Mill faces south and nestles amongst the soft green hills of West Somerset in a sheltered position beside the River Tone. This beautiful converted water mill and its neighbouring barns date back to the 17th century and have been carefully renovated to form a collection of very comfortable and charming holiday cottages.

The 3.5 acres of grounds surrounding the mill are a paradise of fields, water meadows and delightfully cultivated gardens.
