French windows open onto a courtyard garden with a table and chairs - the perfect spot to catch the sun and enjoy an evening drink with an unspoilt view of the river and its island, teeming with wildlife just a few feet away.

This historic mill is in a spectacularly beautiful part of the River Stour. It is built over the mill stream which forms a charming island. There's a weir, a remarkable weeping willow, and visiting wildlife includes swans, kingfishers, herons, and even the occasional otter. It's all in the conservation area of Tredington, a peaceful Warwickshire village surrounded by quiet countryside and Cotswold Hill walks. There is a mediaeval church filled with reminders of centuries of history, remarkable period architecture and a children's playground.
