Arriving across a small bridge over the Tetbury Avon you find an unusual split-level home over three floors with the mill waters running beneath. Slate and wooden floors combined with open brick walls and arch details where the mill wheels once sat keep the character and history of the building alive. The living room fills with the tumbling of the water rushing below and is a homely space with a modern wood burner where you can spend time relaxing after following the riverside walking routes from your doorstep. The open kitchen/diner is spacious and bright with wooden beams and from its raised position has views out to the outdoor space, which is larger than you'll first think. Each bedroom faces the river to the front of the mill which flows around the house to meet the mill waters. Outside is a triangular garden with a patio and lawned area but follow the wooden bridge and footpath and you will find the extensive grounds beyond. When the weather allows you will spend most of your time here with a picnic watching the children play or relax enjoying a book while lazing in the grass. This is a wonderful base for exploring around historic Malmesbury and the southern Cotswolds. Ground Floor Entrance Hall: With a slate tiled floor and open brick wall you instantly get a taste of Wynyard Mill and the styling you will find throughout. There is a lovely wooden bench for taking your boots off and enough storage space for coats and bags. Boot Room: Along from the entrance hall is the boot room which has garden access and lots of additional storage. There is an old archway showing in the wall here which reminds you of the history of the mill. This boot room is a great place to bring the dogs in from outside to dry them off. Utility Room: Keeping the noise of household necessities away from your holiday there is a washing machine, dryer, and sink in the utility. Looking out to the garden you see the sitting area and eye-catching stone statue while you do the laundry. Bathroom: Set away from the main living spaces the bathroom has a freestanding rolltop bath so you can escape for a bit of peace and quiet.

Living Room: The large living room is alive with the sound of the mill water rushing below which becomes a unique background noise for your stay. A sofa and chairs gathered around the modern wood burner and TV are where you'll relax in the evenings.
