Swilland Mill

Swilland, Near Woodbridge,Suffolk, United Kingdom

Style: Originally a coal-fired roller mill, built in the 1890s adjacent to one of Suffolk's finest windmills. Swilland Mill has been newly converted into three adjoining 5 star luxury apartments, all extremely private and yet flexible providing high spec holiday accommodation for 16. The designers have retained the imposing and fascinating structure of this industrial interior, original doors and pullies used in the processing of the flour remain, the old flour lift and of course the chimney while the top quality finishings, modern furnishings and decoration create real comfort.

Grounds: Tables and chairs on the terrace to the front of the building with large gardens to the side and rear. Attractive exterior lighting welcomes you to the property and continues to the hot tub beside which is a changing room with lockers and a bike store with drying space for outdoor clothes and boots. Lawns lead to the children's play area. The old mill pond has a fountain and is fully fenced.

Sleeps 16: There are 3 king sized double bedrooms and 4 twin bedded room, and one extra day bed in The Lucam master suite (3 bathrooms plus 2 ensuites in total). Twin beds can be zipped together to create superking double beds. Eating and Drinking: Kitchens are ultra modern and well equipped. The Lucam, the central apartment sleeping 8, has a dining table and chairs for 16 as well as all the necessary cutlery, china etc.

Catered and dropped off meals can be arranged by prior notice for your stay. The nearby pub, The Moon and Mushroom sells excellent food as well as some of Suffolk's finest beers.

Swiss Farm, a 5 minute drive, is said to be one of the best butchers in Suffolk, and James Whites, producers of fantastic juices is also close by. Try the Big Tom!
