Hotel Description:

A real gem, a characterful Grade II listed former watermill, featuring award winning food, real ales & 40 malt whiskies.

This family owned hotel has a Health Club with a 12m indoor pool, spa, sauna, steam room & 30 piece fitness studio.

Set in 11 acres, Quy Mill is originally mentioned in the Domesday Book in the year 1068. The current buildings were constructed in the year 1830, and have a Grade II Historical Buildings Listing. We have sensitively transformed the Watermill, Miller's House and Timber Framed Barns into a quality 3 star plus Hotel. Enjoy our award winning food from a choice of four differing menus. Food is served in several very different areas. In the informal Country Inn Restaurant, a distinctive candlelit conversion of the Dining Room, Parlour and Study of the Old Miller's House, where open fires are an attractive feature during winter months. Food is also served in the Old Kitchen Bar, which features real ale beers, in the Celtic Bar, with our selection of 40 malt whiskies, and in the Orangery, with its view over the terraced gardens. We serve a simpler light bite menu in our vaulted oak beam Lounge. Conferences and Banquets are held in air conditioned rooms with views over Quy Water and our extensive gardens, and also in the Old Watermill Room featuring the Victorian 16ft waterwheel behind a glass screen. All our bedrooms feature en-suite bathtubs and showers. Some bedrooms feature Four Poster beds with whirlpool spa baths and all are equipped to the standards required by Best Western - Connoisseur status. Almost 50% of our rooms are located on the ground floor. All of our resident guests have free access to our professionally managed Health Club with state of the art 30 piece fitness studio, 12m decklevel indoor pool, steam room, sauna & whirlpool spa beneath the splendour of oak beams.
