ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE
Arrival: 4pm (3pm from Nov-March)
Departure: 10am
CANDID COMMENTS
The access lane is a half a mile along a rough private woodland track - no tarmac here and one or two potholes depending on the weather and time of year, so if you are excessively precious about your car, or you have a low slung vehicle, you may wish to go very slowly or find another retreat. In very snowy weather, you may not be able to park at the cottage and may have to leave your car at the end of the track, unless you have a four wheel drive car which makes access a lot easier.
Once a year, at hay making time, guests will have extra noise and tractors passing as this is the farmer's route to his hay store. The Old Paper Mill is detached, but the owner's house is about 50 metres behind it and up a drive and you will see the owners drive past to their house and the occasional horse and tractor. Washer/dryer rather than a separate tumble dryer. No landline but there is unsecured Wi-Fi.
TO NOTE
All of our Retreats are non-smoking.
Whilst we take great care to represent our properties and their facilities as accurately as possible, the décor, furnishings and facilities shown in images and video tours may occasionally be subject to minor change.

Reviews and Ratings
Our cottages are graded according to how stylish they are and how welcoming they are to children.
To assist you in finding the perfect place to stay, we have awarded our cottages a Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum style rating. This is based on our own standards and the award is given according to a mixture of criteria - location, aesthetic appeal, standard of luxury, facilities offered and style factors.
For example, a Platinum award goes to our most stylish and all round exclusive properties and a Bronze award may go to a cottage that may be a little less refined in places but still meets the high standards necessary to fit into the collection.
THE OLD PAPER MILL IS A GOLD RETREAT WITH A 2 STAR CHILD FRIENDLY RATING
This is really a couple's cottage but a travel cot (please bring your own bedding) and highchair are available on request. A toddler bed can be made up on request for an older child in the bedroom (£25 charge applies).
