After reading a recent bad review I was afraid of what we would find. Much to our delight we found this place to be perfect. If you are looking for modern luxury this is not the place for you. It’s a fabulous very old mill house with a lot of unique features. We spent a ton of time outside by the river. The outdoors is spectacular and we loved every minute.
