The driveway entrance to The Old Mill (signed Metford Mill).
Your private balcony awaits where you can sit and enjoy uninterrupted views across the peaceful grounds.
Situated a little distance from the side of The Old Mill is this pretty pond (please take care with younger guests and dogs). You'll be sure to spot the colourful dragonflies here.
These original external steps are quite steep so please take care and use the rope handrail. The area you can see on the left-hand side, at the top of the steps, is not enclosed so please be mindful not to go too close to the edge.
Keep an eye out for this sign on the road which is at the entrance of the driveway down to The Old MIll.
Say hello to the owners sheep.
Although in the grounds of the owners' house, The Old Mill is completely separate ensuring your privacy.
Up this slight incline and to the right is the parking area.
Rural Dorset is so peaceful and attractive, you'll leave wanting to return time and time again.
The stunning Jurassic Coast is just a short drive away.

A beautifully restored old property, which is spacious and comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quiet, private place to stay, but also wants to visit the many attractions that this part of Dorset has to offer.

A delightful Old Mill with many original features incorporated into a beautiful refurbishment. We had a very comfortable and relaxing stay in a very pretty setting.

A fabulous property which was warm and cosy. Very good hosts who were kind and very helpful. The welcome pack was great - thank you. A very picturesque location. Beautiful converted mill with all of the modern conveniences to make us feel very at home. We visited Wareham Blue Pool and Lulworth Cove and would heartily recommend both....

We really liked The Old Mill, full of character & lovely fixtures & fittings. Weather permitting, the small balcony is ideal with a view over the fields & peace & quiet. Dorchester is a lovely town with some good shops & plenty of nice places & choices to have lunch. The Fox & Hounds pub is just down the road from The Mill, they serve food & the staff & locals are really friendly. The owner of The Mill has converted this property to a high standard & I am so pleased I chose this place for a week away, the only downside is the week flew by so quickly & I was reluctant to leave....

Great location and lovely clean cottage. Extremely quiet and peaceful and the grazing sheep in the afternoon was a bonus. Perfect for us to catch up with friends and relax with the dog. The night sky was worth the gaze.
Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed in this cottage, with the few exceptions stated in our Review Guidelines.
