Water Mill Vacations - Riverside Cottage (Pet Friendly £) | Cottage in Newport

This delightful two bedroom property has an abundance of original features, giving it a huge amount of character. The entrance is a short walk from the parking area, along a pathway that runs adjacent to the mill stream. The front door, painted a soft green, opens into a hallway off which you can access the lounge and bathroom. One side of this cosy lounge is dominated by an impressive inglenook fireplace, which houses a wood burner. A corner sofa provides the perfect place to curl up in front of the fire and watch a favourite old movie. Walking through the lounge takes you into a surprisingly spacious kitchen diner, with traditional country style units. The dining area is bathed in light from the wall of windows and skylight, with a back door that opens on to a small private terrace, making this a quiet spot for a morning coffee. The interior walls, some of which are exposed stonework, are painted off-white, highlighting the original beams. On climbing the stairs from the hallway you reach a large landing, which can be used to unpack or relax in, before entering the master bedroom, which has a double bed and plenty of storage. Next door the second bedroom has bunk beds, ideal for two children.

The Water Mill itself has existed for over a thousand years and is first mentioned in the doomsday book A.D 1086. Still a working mill, it has supplied flour and animal feeds to the people of the island for many years. Flour, muesli and oats are still produced today and can be purchased on site.
Having always been a popular tourist attraction, The Mill is set in 35 acres of rural landscape where you'll find proud looking peacocks strutting freely around the grounds, often with a few doves or ducks in tow.
As a guest staying at any one of the holiday properties on site you will have free access to the various attractions when open, which are just a stone's throw away from your accommodation. (Please check the opening times to avoid disappointment when booking.)

After exploring the Mill, why not relax and indulge in a cream tea or ice cream at the onsite café, which is a converted 17th century cattle barn - you can still see the marks where the cows rubbed against the pillars!
A round of the 18-hole adventure golf course or a peep inside the small war museum can be entertaining for all ages. When the attractions are closed the owners are very happy for guests to wander within the extensive grounds. A stroll up towards the barns, home to a large portable steam engine and other old farming equipment, followed by a visit to the small windmill on the hill and back along the river, makes for an enjoyable walk. Not surprisingly there's an abundance of wildlife in the area - in particular, keep a look out for the shy red squirrels, which the island is famous for or the wide variety of birds. If you're looking for a rural setting from which to explore the island, then look no further!
