The atmosphere of the mill is also wonderfully peaceful especially as an escape from the bustling city.

Enjoyed a beautiful waterfall view and excellent service. We chose seats recommended by a friend and were not disappointed. It’s a hidden gem just a 30-minute drive from the city
Portions were generous; the lobster bisque and green salad stood out. Highly recommended.
