The Loft In The Mill Boutique Accommodation

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at The Loft was so relaxing and just what we needed for a nice weekend away. Situated right in town just across the road from gorgeous shops and cafes. Check in was super easy and staff were so friendly. Parking was easy with their own carpark which was easy to park a bigger car. The amenities in the room were ample and everything was so clean and tidy. We will definitely be booking again and have been recommending to friends and family as it was so perfect!"

Belle Le Vie

10/10 Excellent

"We were welcomed by staff and were given a great run down about places to go and things to see as we are not frequent visitors to the mountains. We stayed in the Parisienne room. What a gorgeous place. We opened the door and the first thing that caught my eye was the full window with a view of the beautiful trees, & such a gorgeous sight to see first thing in the morning. The room was excellent, with generous amount of items for breakfast. The bath was amazing and great after a day of walks through the mountain trails. Love this place and would love to visit again."

Lotus Lodges

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely wonderful time. Relaxing and had everything you need for a staycation. Easy delivery options. Cozy and lovely. Jazz music playing as I walked in made it all the more magical of an experience. Would definitely stay again!!"

Steep Creek Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"A great stay, lovely, comfortable, large home with lots of birds. We really enjoyed our day on Puffing Billy the local steam train and you can walk from the house."

Aquila Nova Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"A gorgeous place to stay. We loved our time at Aquila and felt so relaxed and refreshed being there. The room was clean and cosy, especially with the fire on. The amenities were fantastic and the bottle of bubbly readily enjoyed! We both found the bed to be comfortable and had a real quality night's sleep. Couldn't fault it, thank you for having us! "
