Both Braunston Mill and Mill Cottage stand in the Heart of England and are situated in the historic village of Braunston. This delightful village is famed for its canals with the village being the point where the Grand Union and Oxford Canals meet.
A truly spectacular building and one which is probably the most photographed in the area, both holiday cottages provide luxurious self catering holiday accommodation of a high degree of comfort and style.
Braunston Mill is ideal for parties of up to six guests and Mill Cottage is the perfect Romantic Retreat for just two. Both can be hired independently or together to accommodate larger parties of eight. Both The Mill and Mill Cottage are positioned apart with a good degree of privacy and both have there own individual private Hot Tubs for guests enjoyment.
Recently featured in BBC Good Homes and The Gaurdians Travel selection, The Mill is a detached contemporary retreat sleeping six in three bedrooms and accommodation stretches across six floors.
Whilst the canals were once the main transport network of the time, today Braunston's waters are very busy with leisure boats, accompanying tourists and related businesses. There is a canalside walk which takes you for an enjoyable stroll past Chandlers, souvenir shops, boat builders/fitters and the Old Pump House with its enormous chimney which is now used as moorings for the many narrow boats stationed here.
A must to visit is the Marina which has been extensively restored with new warehouse style accommodation. All historical buildings and equipment have been beautifully repainted and this is now one of the most impressive inland Marinas in England.
There are plenty of things to see and do in this wonderful area including: Stratford upon Avon which is twenty seven miles through wonderful country side; Warwick with its incredible Castle; Royal Leamington Spa, a great town with art galleries and fashion shops and a good choice of golf courses. Alternatively, do what many others do and simply relax locally and enjoy the wonderful setting along with sampling the local food and ale at one of the pubs within walking distance.
