October Writers' Rooms now open!

Autumnal sun at the Mill

Calling all writers!

Whether you're working on your first ever project, be that a book, poetry or music composition, we are happy to announce that The Mill is opening up for a month of creative connection with all things written!

With our recently completed ‘Nook’ cabin rooms, we now have capacity to host intimate groups of up to 8 people… and October is our month for Writers!

One of the writers’ spots in The Salon.

We have also recently completed The Bibliothéque - our tranquil cobalt blue room where you can take a book from the shelf, relax and get inspired with the gentle sounds of the river in the background.

Places to read, relax and feel inspired.

Open to established writers & novices alike, including anyone who just needs some dedicated ‘time to write’ on whatever that may be. The Mill is a place of inspiring and nurturing spaces where you are free to concentrate on your project, while everything else is taken care of.

Riverside view

We have direct access to a landscape that holds you in a magical way, and allows your creativity to flow. To clear any writers’ block, we highly recommend you brave the slightly ‘fresh’ river water temperatures and take a swim or quick dip under the waterfall at the end of the garden. You won’t regret it!

Morning Pages anyone…?

All bedrooms have a private writing area.

There are additional places around The Mill, where you can sit and write or chat with fellow creatives.

There are outdoor areas to sit and catch the afternoon sun.

We have enough space here for the right balance of alone /concentration time & coming together with others.

We invite you to silent meditation in the mornings in the grain store.

Optional movie night in the Salon once a week.

Outdoor swimming/walks or guided hikes available.
