West Mill is a unique and inspiring converted mill located in Bridport, Dorset, in the South West of England. The property sleeps 8 guests across 4 bedrooms and features a range of amenities, including allowing pets. The mill has been sympathetically renovated to provide a stunning and comfortable home, retaining many original mill workings and offering generous living spaces.
The property is situated in the charming market town of Bridport, just a short walk from local shops, restaurants, and the electric palace cinema. The interior of West Mill includes a variety of spaces, such as a 2nd floor TV room, a large sitting room with views up to the Town Hall, and a den on the 3rd floor with comfortable bean bag seating and a TV. The property is suitable for babies and children over 5, although it may not be ideal for toddlers due to the partially unfenced mill pond in the garden and steep stairs to the top floor.
The accommodation includes 2 king-size bedrooms, a small twin room, a family bathroom, and a library space on the 1st floor. The 2nd floor features a twin room with low beams and some original mill workings, a master king-size room with a large ensuite shower room, and an airing cupboard. Outside, there is an enclosed rear garden with seating above the mill pond and secure gated access to the rest of the garden, as well as a pedestrian gate to the high street over a small bridge.
Additional amenities at West Mill include WiFi, gas central heating, and a parking permit for a nearby car park. Families are catered for with stair gates, a high chair, and a travel cot available, although guests should be aware of the steep stairs and the garden with an unfenced pond/mill race. One well-behaved dog is welcome, and the property is conveniently located within 3 miles of the nearest beach and less than 1 mile from amenities.
