  • "We had a lovely stay at The Mill."

    Situated in the countryside but only a short distance from local towns and villages. Extremely well equipped for both humans and dogs. Comfortable and peaceful, well furnished and homely .Lovely welcome hamper on arrival. Did not need anything, but owner on site checking if we needed anything. A lot of thought has gone into this holiday cottage . If the weather is bad there plenty to occupy you , very eco friendly accommodation. Would have loved to stay longer , sadly due to family circumstances this was not possible. Would recommend

  • "This property is an absolute hidden Gem!"

    Enchanting, quiet, comfortable and well equipped. Pleasure to have Smart TV, Nespresso coffee machine and proper cutlery and crockery. Lovely garden and the meadow is a real bonus for dog owners and nature lovers. And loved the resident Barn Owl :) However the best thing is a dog friendly property where the owner absolutely understands and loves dogs! So much to do in the location - Lanhydrock House, Eden Project, Restormel Castle are obvious 'must sees' but actually Wheal Martyn was our favourite day out. An absolutely exceptional stay, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for a great holiday!

    Thank you for your lovely review Ros, we are so glad you had an enjoyable stay and the dogs enjoyed their time here. Property Owner

  • "We had a wonderful stay at The Mill, The location is perfect, peaceful and tranquil, yet close to so many great places to visit."

    The cottage was exactly as listed, if not better – clean, comfortable, and full of charm. It was very dog friendly and ideal for our two dogs, who settled in straight away. The meadow just behind the property was a fantastic bonus, perfect for morning walks and letting them safely explore. But also ideal even if you don’t have dogs, there were no obvious signs of previous dog visitors. Jamie, the owner, was incredibly welcoming and kind and especially understanding about our nervous dog, which we really appreciated. It made us feel instantly at ease. I’ve already recommended it to my family, and we will definitely be coming back – it’s the perfect halfway point between our daughters in Plymouth and Devon. Thank you so much, Jamie, for a lovely stay

    Thank you for your great review Nathan - we are so happy your enjoyed your stay at the Mill and the dogs enjoyed themselves. We look forward to welcoming you back and thank you for the recommendation. Property Owner

  • "The Mill is a lovely reverse level property in a quiet area, no traffic noise, yet still not too far away from shops & pubs."

    The property was very clean & had everything in it that you need. All of the products in cottage were eco friendly, so there is no need to take shampoos or any cleaning products or you own. Jamie the host is very welcoming, and made sure we had everything that we needed. We appreciated the milk eggs butter & cream left for us & not forgetting the chocolate Easter Bunny. We had wonderful 5 nights at the Mill . We wish Jamie all the best in this his first season as owner

Where you’ll be staying

LOSTWITHIEL

Bodmin 5.5 miles; Fowey 7 miles.

A delightfully peaceful country town, nestling in the Fowey river valley amid the woods and fields that characterise the area. Renowned as a centre for the antiques trade, there are several shops and dealers in the town, as well as a fine collection of country pubs, restaurants and a thriving farmer’s market. Lanhydrock House (NT) and gardens is just 3 miles away, while the fabulous Boconnoc House, Eden Project, shipwreck museum and tall ships harbour at Charlestown, and the picturesque fishing villages of Mevagissey, Fowey and Padstow, with the famous Rick Stein restaurants, are all within easy driving distance. The tumbling Atlantic surf, long sandy beaches and dramatic coastline of the north coast, including at the renowned Newquay, make for great days out and there is also chance to enjoy river canoeing, biking, hiking and leisurely walks in this lovely area. The friendly locals also have ongoing activities, such as the raft race, the famous tug of war, Carnival week and seagull outboard motor races. The river Fowey runs from the town on its 8 mile journey through the fields and wooded valleys to the gentler southern coast, a natural paradise for those who love the sea. Centrally placed, with much to do and see in the immediate area, Lostwithiel is the perfect choice for those seeking a break away from the hectic pace of the tourist resorts.
