Grindstone Mill - sleeps 12 guests in 6 bedrooms

As you turn off the little country road on the outskirts of Alderley village and down the drive to the mill, following the Little Avon river, you'll be mesmerised by the sight of this beautiful property. A mill has stood on the site since the 11th century and has been a family home for many centuries, with the current owners updating the interior to make a resplendent country home. In front of the house is a small lake with a wooden bridge, providing a link for the local footpath to continue past this bucolic scene. A patio and knot garden, with aromatic plants and culinary herbs, sit between the house and the mill course, with garden laid to lawn and mature borders to each side.

Grindstone Mill is decorated in the style of a classic Cotswold country home, with statement pieces of furniture, antiques, paintings and sumptuous fabrics, combined with the conveniences that modern-day living demands, including a fully equipped kitchen, WiFi, and two smart TVs. For entertaining, the Mill has a fabulous open-plan kitchen and living-dining room (with direct access to the front and rear patios), a snug with a smart TV and wood burner, and an elegant sitting room with an open fireplace. The six large double bedrooms—two with super-king beds, three with king beds and a twin bedroom, are arranged over three floors and comfortably sleep 12, with 1 en-suite bathroom in the master bedroom, two family bathrooms and one family shower room, serving the two lower floor bedrooms.

To the rear of Grindstone Mill the owners run an online luxury larder, Caspian Caviar, selling caviar, salmon, truffle oil, champagne and more. (Luxury hampers and goods can be delivered to you during your stay. See Points of Note for more details.) A narrow lane continues past the mill to a working farm.

Ground Floor

Entrance:
Guests enter Grindstone Mill from the rear, passing from the parking area across the patio to the French windows, which open into the open-plan Living-Dining-Kitchen Area.

Living-Dining-Kitchen Room:
This beautiful, spacious, and lightroom, with its fabulous wooden floor, pale yellow walls, and contemporary chandeliers hanging down from the vaulted ceiling, extends all the way from the back to the front of the property. Windows overlook the rear patio, the side garden and the mill course at the front. The Living Area is furnished with a three-seater sofa, two leather armchairs, an over-size footstool, a bureau, and a pine dresser, holding glassware. Between the Living Area and Kitchen is the Dining Area featuring an extendable dining table that comfortably seats 12 (10 seats shown in the photo).

At the far end of the room is the fully equipped kitchen, featuring a fabulous view over the mill course, private lake, boathouse, and bridge. At the centre of the Kitchen is a large central island with bar stools, fan oven, and storage cupboards. To one side is a 4-oven Aga and separate induction hob, with extensive work surfaces to either side.

Front Porch:
The true entrance and front door of the mill is off the Kitchen. Here you will find a porch with hooks to hang coats and space for boots and shoes. The door opens onto the front patio and the mill course.

Snug:
This delightful room off the Kitchen provides a cosy retreat where guests can curl up with a book on one of the sofas or the armchair in front of the wood burner or watch the smart TV. The dresser in the Snug is full of books (novels, guides, and cookery books), games, and puzzles for guests to use during their stay.

Study:
The handy family study is furnished with a desk and office chair, armchair, shelving and small TV and has a lovely view towards the adjoining open countryside.

Sitting Room:
This beautiful room is furnished in the sumptuous style of a typical 19th-century drawing room, with two three-seater sofas, an armchair, and a coffee table set before a wood burner in a large stone fireplace. At the opposite end of the room is a second seating area with a small sofa and an antique games table overlooking the main rear patio. Each of the four windows have a large window seat with comfy cushions, great places to sit and read or watch nature at work. (This room does not have a TV.)

Off the central hallway, you will find Bedroom 4 and the downstairs Family Bathroom

Bedroom 4:
As the only ground floor bedroom, this room has an idyllic view across the delightful knot garden out to the mill's watercourse—almost at eye level. Furnished with a super-king size bed with an ornate bedhead, a small TV, dressing table, bedside tables and reading lamps, a comfy antique chair, and a wardrobe with hanging space and shelves.

Family Bathroom:
Situated between the ground floor landing area and Bedroom 4, the Family Bathroom has a full-size bath with a hand-held shower (for hair washing only), a W.C., washbasin, a chair, and plenty of magazines!

First Floor

Head up the carpeted staircase, with banister and handrail to three bedrooms. After the first ten stairs, the staircase divides to the right and left. Head right to Bedrooms one, two, and the Family Bathroom or head left to Bedroom three.

Bedroom One:
The en-suite master bedroom is a beautiful, super-spacious, dual aspect room (occupying the same floor area as the Kitchen below), with views out to the garden and fields and the mill course and boathouse. At the entrance to the room is a dressing area with a wardrobe, shelves, and a dressing table with a mirror. Walk through to the bedroom where you will find a super-king size bed, bedside tables and reading lamps, two armchairs, a second dressing table and mirror, and a small TV. This bedroom is big enough for two people to practice yoga in, should you wish to!

En-suite Bathroom:
Just inside the doorway to the bedroom is the en-suite bathroom, equipped with a full-size bath, walk-in shower, double sink in a vanity unit, a large mirror, and two heated towel rails. Relax in the bath, which sits below the window, and watch the stars above you.

Bedroom Two:
This bright and sunny bedroom looks out over the mill course and is furnished with a king-size double bed, bedside tables and reading lamps, a dressing table with a mirror, an open wardrobe with hanging and shelves and an armchair, the perfect place to sit and gaze at the water rushing by.

Family Bathroom:
This bathroom is shared with guests in Bedroom 2 and 3 and features a full-size bath (no shower), washbasin with mirror over, W.C., and wall-sized mirror.

Bedroom Three:
Head left up the split staircase to a small twin bedroom sitting in the eaves of the house with exposed beams. The bedroom is furnished with two single beds (pushed together, but can be separated), with bedside tables and reading lamps (not pictured). The bedroom has under-eave storage, a clothes rail and armchair. This bright and airy room has two Velux windows, with fitted blinds, and would be suited to two younger or not so tall guests!

Lower Floor

Head down the stairs to the lower ground floor where you'll find a large foyer, Bedrooms five and six and the Utility Room, plus a door opening to stairs up to the side garden.

Foyer:
With its stone flooring, two extra-large dog baskets, and a handmade stair gate this is the perfect place to keep wet dogs comfortably, and safely, downstairs.

Utility / Laundry Room:
The large Utility Room is home to a washing machine (8kg capacity), an overhead clothes dryer (Pully Maid), an iron and ironing board, a double sink, clothes hooks, and a boot rack. The ideal place to dry out laundry or clothes and shoes after a wet walk.

Head through a latched wooden door to the two downstairs bedrooms and Shower Room, perfect for family members wanting some personal space or families travelling with support staff.

Bedroom 5:
This bright and hidden-away room is furnished with a King-size bed and bedside tables with reading lamps resting on a real wood floor and large coir rug. A large built-in wardrobe houses hanging space, shelves, and a 43" smart TV. Look up to the sky through two high windows (with blinds), which open out to the knot garden at the front of the mill.

Bedroom Six:
A cosy, dual-aspect double bedroom furnished with a king-size double bed, resting on a real wood floor and large coir rug, bedside tables and reading lamps, and a towel rail. Windows look out to the adjacent fields and down the little lane leading to the neighbouring farm.

Family Shower Room:
The lower floor shower room is equipped with a large, walk-in shower, with an overhead showerhead and hand-held shower, a washbasin with a large mirror, a W.C., and a heated towel rail. Please note, this toilet runs on a Saniflow system - it is essential that guests do not flush any sanitary products down the toilet, it will block instantly.

Outside

The setting of Grindstone Mill is truly idyllic, providing an escape to what feels like a forgotten time. The Little Avon river runs up to and past the property, and in times gone by was diverted to form a lake and the mill course. More recently a pretty wooden bridge was built over the lake to provide a crossing for the local path to continue uninterrupted on its way to Alderley village. A delightful patio and knot garden, with aromatic plants and culinary herbs, sits between the house and the mill course with seating and tables for guests to eat outside or simply sit and relax while enjoying the beautiful surroundings. A charcoal Weber BBQ is also provided for guests' use. The mill's main front door opens from the kitchen to this front patio, making it easy to cater to guests dining outside.

To the rear of the property, adjacent to the French windows leading to the open-plan Living-Dining area, is a large private patio with a table and seating. Leading off this patio, to the side of the house, is a small but idyllic garden laid to lawn and bordered by herbs and annuals. Descend a few stone steps from the rear patio to the gravelled parking area where 4-5 cars may be parked.

Beautiful location, excellent stay

We loved this house, it is in a gorgeous setting ( with a friendly swan ) lovely grounds and garden, plenty of places to sit inside and out, good sized beds in the bedrooms and a very well stocked kitchen with everything we needed for a family/ friends weekend. We were three families with children of various ages and a dog, everyone has enough space and the space was perfect for family dinners inside and a bbq outside too. We loved Grindstone Mill and will definitely return, thank you for wonderful holiday weekend stay.

Amazing!!

Deff worth the drive from London. My husband and I are from the US so this was a dream get away. The house to the pond I’m the back, the towns everything about this place was a romantic get away. It was a blast and well for sure return again :) Only suggestion we have would be a bigger TV in the master bedroom and maybe a new TV as we had some trouble watching TV and finding what would work/load. Not sure if it’s just being in the county in the Wifi is. A little slower. Other then that it was a wonderful stay!!!

Celebration weekend

We had a fabulous time staying here. Everything was perfect. The house was clean and tidy and just as we imagined from the pics. The only thing we would say is that we had the master suite and the TV was so tiny we didn’t even put it on plus the light in the en-suite was flickering constantly. I did report this but it couldn’t be fixed during our stay so every time we went into the bathroom we felt like we were at a rave which was annoying. Apart from that we had a fabulous time and would definitely stay again

Perfect Cotswold Getaway

We rented this beautiful property to gather with family after Covid had kept us away from England for over 3 years. The house itself is absolutely breathtaking as you approach. Access was easy and communication with the host was seamless. The main floor features a huge and well stocked kitchen, perfect for cooking and entertaining. We enjoyed learning to use the Aga. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all comfortably appointed and fitted with linens and all the amenities you could need. The grounds themself were beautiful. We didn't have the weather to enjoy the outdoor space as much as I would have liked, but the set-up for enjoy an outdoor meal or refreshment was ideal. The local towns were charming and we especially enjoyed shopping in Nailsworth. We can't recommend this beautiful property enough.

Lovely stay at the Grindstone

Beautiful house and grounds. We had a group of six but could have easily fit twice as many. We loved the area and nearby towns but we also very much enjoyed relaxing at the house and cooking meals together. We would definitely rent this place again if we were in the area. A classic feel, well appointed with antiques, but very comfortable at the same time.

Lovely Birthday Celebrations

We stayed here for a friend’s surprise birthday celebrations and it was the ideal house and location for a lovely holiday in the Cotswolds. The house is spacious and beautiful, and the scenery is fantastic. There were plenty of amenities and crockery etc, all in good working order. The nearest village is only 5 minutes drive away and that provided the right balance for going out in the day. Overall, an excellent stay in the Cotswolds!

Simply the nicest house we have ever rented.

So I must start this review with a question to the person who put a bad review up about Grindstone Mill. “What planet are you on and is your life so perfect that you find fault in everywhere you go? This is simply the best place we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in many. Apart from the fact that this is such a gorgeous property, in the most sublime setting, it is equipped with the highest quality of everything. Bed linen, beds, towels, sofas, heating, toilet paper…just everything. If you are into cooking and know how to use an aga then this is paradise. You also have the most modern oven and hob I have ever seen, the best and highest quality of pans, knives etc. If we could live here, we would move here tomorrow. It is our dream house, we had the most awful weather when we were here, and it was brilliant. It just needs a big salad bowl is the only thing I can think of as a criticism.
