After coming along the tree lined driveway to the peaceful sound of the flowing Esk River, the house stands proudly on 3.5 acres of luscious green land. Beautifully presented with an instantly welcoming feel with each space flowing naturally into the next and offering gorgeous views across the private gardens. The heart of the home is the original stone kitchen with island seating leading to the light-filled Orangery with family dining table, a cosy fire to gather around, and often a 2 or 4 legged friend in the distance to look out at! Yes, there are chickens, otters and deer wandering around the grounds, but all are very friendly and beautiful to admire. Fresh hens eggs even make it to the breakfast table!
All 5 bedrooms are located on the first and second floors and all include en suites with sustainable organic body care products. Also on the first floor is the drawing room for relaxing in the evening sun. The snug, located on the ground floor is also perfect for a late-night dram and a Whisky tasting experience can also be arranged upon request.

The home even includes a pier to sit and have a quiet moment at, this home is truly like no other.
Enjoy a meal or BBQ al fresco, or experience the outdoor wellness amenities including a hydro swim spa big enough for 8 people, sauna with scented oils, then cool down in the cold plunge. Even enjoy a spot of Pilates or yoga on the deck in the quiet of nature.
Additional services and experiences can also be arranged upon request such as private transfers, private chef, golf days, historic tours and even helicopter tours of the neighbouring borders. It is all part of The Old Mill House Experience.
