Grist Mill is an early 18th Century watermill hidden at the bottom of the Owlpen valley, deep in the Southern edge of The Cotswolds. It is a 'listed' historic building, completely restored to provide the ultimate in holiday cottage accommodation. Contemporary in comfort and style, the whole building is like a time warp, with unrivalled character and charm. There are many period features within the property, including beams and period furniture. Outside are the gigantic mill wheel and millpond - a haven for wild life. There are a Post Office/village shop, two pubs, a brewery and an arts centre in Uley approx half a mile away. (Images of bedrooms to follow!)

OWLPEN has long been recognised as one of England's most romantic locations. Today the Tudor Manor House, Owlpen Manor (1450-1616), stands within a formal garden of magnificent yews and at the centre of a clutch of beautiful medieval and traditional buildings, many of which have been recently converted into exceptional Cotswold holiday cottages. The whole estate, steeped in a thousand years of history, forms its own remote and picturesque wooded valley under the edge of the Cotswold hills in the south-west of England.
