We enjoyed our stay at the Old Mill Hotel. We walked around enjoying al the beautiful scenery. In the evening we dined in the restuarant & pub on the site.We had good food in a warm & cozy setting.
The Old Mill dates from around 1500 & is set in pretty locations in West Harnham next to the River Avon. It has indoor & outdoor seating, with a bar & resturant. Go down a little passage, & you will come to the beer garden where you can watch the ducks.
There are nine rooms upstairs with en-suite bathrooms. The rooms are cleaned everyday, the front rooms overlook the river. My only complaint is that I think that the men's room is extreamley smelly, it's very off-putting & I always hold my breath when going past here!
The Old Mill is about 10 minutes from the city of Salisbury, with amazing views across the fields towards the spire. If you are cycling, there is a bar to tie your bike to, I've cycled here many times. The village of Harnham is nice to wander around in the summer with a playing field not too far away, town path is good to wander up towards the city; althrough dodgey at night.
