Right bang in the heart of this beautiful riverside town, this charming little home is part of a recently converted mill. Smart and simple, it's been designed with comfort and space in mind. Perfect for a couple or a solo traveller, it could be that you're visiting for a weekend or you may be here for a long stay – either way, it's an easy place to feel at home in. Beautiful wood floors and modern shades of grey mix with cosy furnishings, houseplants and an open, sociable, living space. Cleverly divided up with huge sliding doors, you can choose to open up the whole space like a studio, or section off the bathroom and the bedroom. Outside, and you're just a couple of minutes walk from the High Street and all its buzzing pubs and restaurants in one direction, and from the riverbank in the other.
