Amazing 5* service
We stayed here for one night. Our room was lovely, very clean and cosy, lots of lovely touches to make it homely and they thought of everything including a fresh bottle of water and milk in the fridge.
The shower and bath were both great and everything was spotless.
We ate dinner in the restaurant that night, it was packed but the service was fantastic and the food delicious, we both had the mussels. The cocktails were brilliant too, we’d already had a cocktail each earlier in the afternoon and I wanted a pornstar martini as my next one, the bar man said they ran out of something that was needed and I let out an ‘nooooooo’ as they are my favourite. He then said he was sure he could figure something out and he still made me it, and it was as delicious as they always are.
We also had the breakfast in the morning, we both had a yogurt compot with granola and then the full English and that was delicious too. I also saw a lady come in who had wanted one of the yogurt compots but we had the last ones and the girl serving went and made her one. Nothing was too much for the staff here! The service is incredible.
We would definitely recommend and we will definitely go back in the future.

Welcome stay for the boatshow
The Old Mill provided superb comfortable accommodation (in the neighbouring building) for a short visit to Southampton. All staff were extremely helpful and friendly with everything from check in to checking out. A well recommended stay for the area with the maintenance of the old mill ponds and races adding to the aesthetics of the restored mill building.

Comfortable overnighter
Friendly greeting on arrival and efficient advance check-in process. Room delightfully airy, spacious and comfortable with view over garden and courtyard dining area. Evening dinner ‘ok’ (nothing to write home about); service nice and friendly. Room well insulated, so didn’t hear overnight storm! Breakfast very good and tasty. Thank you

The "double" room was small and cramped, very hot (even on a particularly mild evening), and extremely noisy, with loud music from the bar downstairs during the whole evening, and in the morning from 8am (for some reason). Lovely location but not an ideal place if you want a quiet and peaceful break.

The bedroom we stayed in was immaculate, but the tables, cups, glasses & cutlery in the restaurant were not so clean. The continental breakfast & croissants were very disappointing.

Excellent stay
All i can say is Wow . One night away for our 20th Anniversary.
Booked a double room but were given room 8, a suite. Beautiful bathroom, huge shower, free standing bath and twin sinks.
Kingsize bed in the bedroom. Quirky walk through area to large lounge, dining area. Built into the oldest part of the pub so low ceilings.
Had some drinks during the afternoon in the beautiful gardens, lovely water area and quirky features around the grounds.
Lovely meal in the evening.
All staff friendly and helpful.
Amazing breakfast the next day but couldn't finish it, gave it a good shot though..

Lovely pub with beautiful grounds
We stayed at the Old Mill last minute as our original hotel wasn’t suitable. Checked in and the manager gave put us in one of ‘the more modern’ rooms apparently which was located in a separate building next to the pub. It was a small room but had everything you needed. It was by the front door (room 9) so you did hear people coming in and out which was annoying but not the end of the world. The room was clean and lovely bathrooms. The windows didn’t close properly and need attention. The bar / restaurant was lovely. Drinks expensive but nice atmosphere. Had breakfast in the morning as an extra charge and the choices were great and good value for money.
Definitely worth a walk round the grounds as they are beautiful and would be a fab place to sit outside on a sunny day

Excellent service. Beautiful grounds at the back. Staff very friendly and helpful. Very clean. Delicious food. Comfortable rooms.
Suggest that the vine on the roof and front wall of the house is cut back. Front parking area of the original building needs tidying and the original front door needs repainting.

The carpet in the separate house needs cleaning, especially room 11.
The meals and staff were excellent.
