The Old Mill is a homely 17th-century stone watermill located in Devil's Bridge, Ceredigion, Wales, set within picturesque gardens on an organic smallholding. This unique accommodation offers a tranquil retreat surrounded by natural beauty, including a stream, woods, and meadows, while still being conveniently close to the bustling seaside town of Aberystwyth and the stunning Ceredigion coastline, just 10 miles away.

The two bedrooms consist of a king-size bed and a twin room that can be configured as a super king upon request, catering to various guest needs. However, due to the presence of a stream and balcony, it is advised that small children be supervised, making it less suitable for toddlers.

Upstairs, guests will find a cozy living space with a large woodburner, comfortable seating, and entertainment options including a stereo and DVD player. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, allowing for home-cooked meals, while the dining area features an antique French pine table that can seat six.
